Author(s): Nermina Lončarević / Language(s): Bosnian / Issue: 1/2005

Današnja Nacionalna biblioteka u Parizu, čiji fondovi knjiga i rukopisa čine jednu među četiri najbogatijie u svijetu, potiče prvenstveno iz jednog jezgra od 973 bogato ukrašena rukopisa koje je kralj Karlo V smjestio daleke 1368. godine u jedan dio dvorca Luvr, pod nazivom Kraljevska biblioteka.

Inside Looking Out and Outside Looking In: An Approach to Bosnian Libraries

Author(s): Kemal Bakaršić / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2005

I was a boy of 14 when I entered these premises at the Skenderija Hall for the first time. It was in June or July of 1969 – I cannot remember exactly – it was more that 35 years ago. The official opening of these premises took place later that year when this grand building hosted the World Table Tennis Championship (STENS 1970).

War and Recovery: One Initiative to Help Bosnia’s Libraries Rebuild

Author(s): Jeffey B. Spurr / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2005

I manage large photograph collections at Harvard, the purview of which is the Islamic world and the Middle East. Still, the Balkans in general and Bosnia in particular play a role in my work due to their participation in the Ottoman tradition. The focus of my talk is only obliquely related to the broader themes of this conference since I am here, in the main, to describe the Bosnia Library Project, born in early 1996 in the wake of the Dayton Accords, which, however flawed, made this effort possible.

HISTRICA NOVA: Centar za knjigu Istre

Author(s): Magdalena Vodopija / Language(s): Croatian / Issue: 1/2005

Ideja o stvaranju Centra za knjigu Istre nastala je u kultnoj pulskoj knjižari Castropola. Knjižara je to koja je osnovana 1990. godine kao prva privatna knjižara u Istri nakon 50 godina. Od svog osnutka Castropola se isticala po posebnom izboru knjiga i snažnoj promotivnoj djelatnosti.

Plasman publikacija u inostranstvo: iskustva Odelenja razmene Narodne biblioteke Srbije (NbS)

Author(s): Ivana Nikolić / Language(s): Serbian / Issue: 1/2005

Kada smo pre desetak godina predložili proširenje delatnosti postojećeg Odeljenja razmene Narodne biblioteke Srbije i njegovo prerastanje u Centar za plasman jugoslovenskih publikacija u inostranstvo, imali smo nameru da u ovom centru objedinimo visoko-stručni kadar, višedecenijsko profesionalno iskustvo i tehničke mogućnosti koje u Biblioteci postoje kao preduslovi za uspešno obavljanje ove delatnosti. U ideji da pri Biblioteci osnujemo jedan ovakav centar, rukovodila nas je, pre svega, činjenica da Narodna biblioteka Srbije ima višedecenijsku, veoma razvijenu i bogatu saradnju sa najvećim svetskim nacionalnim i univerzitetskim bibliotekama, sa bibliotekama akademija nauka, javnim bibliotekama, slavističkim centrima, prevodiocima naše literature u svetu i bibliotekama Srba u dijaspori. Odeljenje razmene Narodne biblioteke Srbije decenijama unazad plasira domaće publikacije u svet putem razmene i poklona – na taj način prezentira u svetu našu istoriju, nauku, kulturu, umetnost i stvaralaštvo, obavlja svojevrsnu kulturnu misiju i obezbeđuje slobodan protok informacija i naučnih saznanja između naše zemlje i sveta.

Izdanja iz Bosne i Hercegovine u slavističkoj zbirci zemaljske biblioteke za strane jezike u Budimpešti

Author(s): Zoltan Bada / Language(s): Serbian / Issue: 1/2005

Zemaljska biblioteka za strane jezike spada u red kulturnih institucija mlađe generacije. Njeno sedište je u zgradi, koja se tretira kao spomenik kulture, a nalazi se u blizini Univerziteta “Lorant Etveš” (Eötvös Lóránd Tudományegyetem, skračeno: ELTE). Osnovana je 1956. godine pod imenom Državna Biblioteka “Gorki” (Állami Gorkij Könyvtár; ime je dobila po piscu Maksimu Gorkom). Do promene naziva ustanove je došlo 1992 godine. Tokom prethodnih decenija biblioteka je u više navrata bila renovirana. Prikladnost i funkcionalnost objekta, savremena opremljenost računarima i dobro osposobljeno osoblje zajednički garantuju sve one uslove, koji su neophodni pri pružanju kvalitetnih bibliotekarskih usluga.

Central and Eastern European Online Library: The Vendors Perspective on Making Digital Library

Author(s): Bea Klotz / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2005

Whenever you find one of these networkgraphics displaying multiple communication lines in the digital world, the Internet is always represented as a cloud. All those small machines, which are at least physically touchable in our offices, are connected with each other through a vague and spongy medium, for which the unstable cloud has become the most plausible metaphor.

The National and University Library of Tuzla: the Role of Regional Library in Slavic Library Community

Narodna i univerzitetska biblioteka u Tuzli: uloga regionalne biblioteke u zajednicama slavističkih biblioteka

Author(s): Enisa Žunić / Language(s): Bosnian / Issue: 1/2005

Počeci bibliotekarstva na tuzlanskom području vezani su za, od davnina njegovanu naviku sakupljanja privatnih zbirki rukopisa, a kasnije i štampanih knjiga, te za postojanje kolekcija knjiga i dokumenata što su ih za potrebe svoga rada stvarale vjerske i državne ustanove.

Convivencia under Fire: Genocide and Book-burning in Bosnia

Convivencia under Fire: Genocide and Book-burning in Bosnia

Author(s): András Riedlmayer / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2005

The most famous book in Bosnia is a lovely illuminated manuscript known as the Sarajevo Haggadah. Although it found a home in Bosnia in the early 1600s, it was made in another place and time. It is a testimony to the artistic and cultural creativity of those who made it, valued it, and protected it over the ages. It is also a survivor. On at least four occasions in its long history, the Sarajevo Haggadah has survived attempts to destroy multicultural communities. Each of these attempts to eradicate pluralism was also accompanied by the burning of books.

Tragom naše stare knjige: biblioteka Slavenskog instituta u Kelnu

Author(s): Dragan Metlić / Language(s): Bosnian / Issue: 1/2005

Sudbina knjige je slična ljudskoj. Za čovjeka napravljena, knjiga s njim živi i prenosi poruke na generacije koje dolaze. Kada je čovjek napusti, knjiga brzo umire, jer život knjige i život ljudi uvijek su bili nerazdvojno povezani. I dok neke knjige stoje na policama stotinama godina, dotle druge obiđu zajedno sa čovjekom pola svijeta. Najčešće su to bile biblije i razne druge svete knjige, ali nemali broj knjiga je bio svjetskog karaktera, ponekad nacionalni epovi ili narodne pjesme, knjige koje su davale ljudima u teškim trenucima utjehu i podstrek da opstanu. Knjige su tako, živeći i družeći se sa ljudima, obavljale svoju svetu misiju, činile da ople mene čovjeka, da mu prenesu iskustva drugih i da mu tako pomognu. Knjiga je dospijevala zajedno sa čovjekom u sve krajeve svijeta, postala vjerni pratilac čovjeka u tuđini i pomogla mu da ne zaboravi svoje ime, svoj jezik i svoju zemlju.

The Weak Messianic Power of Fiction: From Loss to Redemption

Fiktsiooni nõrk messianistlik jõud: luhtumiselt lunastusele

Author(s): Jüri Lipping,Jaak Tomberg / Language(s): Estonian / Issue: 03/2007

Keywords: fictional writing; historical materialism; the virtual; redemption; angel

The article describes history as a tragic loss of historical possibilities and sees fiction as a vessel for a weak messianic power which regulates the virtual archive of ”failed” historical possibilities and thereby constitutes historical reality. The article interprets Walter Benjamin’s ’Theses on the Philosophy of History’, relates them with the thoughts of Eric Santner, Maurice Blanchot, Jacques Derrida and Slavoj Žižek and describes the reconciliatory function of fiction through literary works by Christa Wolf and Mati Unt.

Images of Women as the Signifiers of the Soviet and National Identity in Estonian Socialist Realist Painting and Graphic Art

Naisekuju nõukogude ja eesti identiteedi kandjana sotsrealistliku maalikunsti ja graafika näitel

Author(s): Katrin Kivimaa / Language(s): Estonian / Issue: 03/2007

Keywords: Estonian socialist realist art; representations of women; visualisation of the national and Soviet identities

This article will look at changes in post-Second-World-war Estonian painting and graphic art, effected by the introduction of the socialist realist canon. Predominantly, it poses questions about representational transformations designed to construct the new identity of the Soviet Estonian woman, using the examples of the images of working women and of the ethnographic image of the nation-as-a-woman. The discussion of those images will concentrate on how different representations of femininity were utilised for the purposes of official visual propaganda, first of all. At the same time, one has to pay attention to how certain images of women continued to perpetuate – although to a lesser extent – old gender ideologies which in Estonian context could be also read as pro-national and anti-Soviet.

Shared Authorship: Dispersal of the Artist in Electronic Fields

Shared Authorship: Dispersal of the Artist in Electronic Fields

Author(s): Raivo Kelomees / Language(s): English / Issue: 03/2007

Keywords: authorship; originality; hybrid author; Internet and interactive art; interactive film

This article aims to describe the phenomenon of the sharing and dispersal of authorship in the new media as essentially belonging to the creative field. The development of authorship has cultural, historical and economic impetus, which has shaped the institution of authorship for hundreds of years. The revolt against authorship, originality, everything made with the author’s own hands, is one of the features of 20th century art, perfectly realised in today’s environment of the Internet and interactive art.

Must Good Art Be Liked? Discussion on Deontic Axiology

Must Good Art Be Liked? Discussion on Deontic Axiology

Author(s): Marek Volt / Language(s): English / Issue: 03/2007

Keywords: work of art; evaluation; goodness; likeness

The reply to the question ’must good art be liked?’ depends on axiological, psychological and deontic factors. An affirmative response assumes that decisions of goodness are logically independent of decisions of liking (the ’independence thesis’ (IT)), and that liking is subject to deontic operations (e.g. obligation). An analysis of the fulfilment of these two conditions shows that the supporters of IT erroneously presume that the question could be solved without determining the type of value and the cause of liking. Robust subjectivism logically overturns IT. IT mistakenly presumes that category shifts maintain value criteria. Liking is subjected to deontic operations in the psychological, but not in the dispositional meaning of liking.

Keywords: Florenskij;

“Im Grunde habe ich mein ganzes Lebenlang über eines nachgedacht: Über das Verhältnis von Erscheinung und Noumen, über das Auffinden des Noumens in den Phänomenen, seine Darstellung, seine Verkörperung. Es geht um die Frage nach dem Symbol. Mein ganzes Leben habe ich nur über dieses eine Problem nachgedacht, das Problem des Symbols”. So schrieb Pave lFlorenskij in seinem autobiographisch ausgerichtetem Testament, welches er nach de rrussischen Februarrevolution 1917 zu verfassen begonnen hatte und unter dem Titel “Meinen Kindern” bis 1923 immer wieder ergänzte.
