Jednostrani prikaz iz jednokutnoga gledišta

Author(s): Darko Periša / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 43/2015

Početkom 2013. u Zagrebu je, u okviru Biblioteke “Hrvatska povijest”, objavljena knjiga Uzroci rata. Bosna i Hercegovina od 1980. do 1992. Godine od Iv(ic)e Lučića (opsega 518 stranica, uključujući mnogo fotografi - ja). Nakladnik je privatna tvrtka Despot Infinitus d.o.o., koja se specijalizirala za izdanja iz suvremene povijesti, a sunakladnik je Hrvatski institut za povijest, oba sa sjedištem u Zagrebu. Riječ je o seriji čije se knjige tiskaju u – za hrvatske relacije – vrlo velikoj tiraži (do desetak tisuća primjeraka) i prodaju na kioscima po povoljnoj cijeni, tako da je Lučićeva knjiga sigurno došla do širokog kruga čitatelja. Ivo Lučić jedan je od rijetkih ljudi u Bosni i Hercegovini te Hrvatskoj koji ispunjava gotovo sve uvjete za pisanje knjige na tu temu: po osnovnom obrazovanju je pravnik, magistrirao je i doktorirao na temama iz suvremene povijesti, a bio je aktivni političar i službenik Službe državne sigurnosti i Sigurnosno-informativne službe u jednom dijelu svoga života, što znači da je imao pristup teže dostupnim informacijama i izvorima..

A Mindszenty-per

Author(s): Margit Balogh / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 07/2012

On December 26, 1948, Cardinal Mindszenty, Archbishop of Ersztergom and Prince-Primate of Hungary, was arrested by the Communist government. He was sentenced to life imprisonment, deprivation of political rights and confiscation of all personal property on February 8, 1949. His trial and condemnation were meant to send multiple messages: the exclusion of Catholics from public life and the political isolation of the Catholic Church; the issuing of a threat to the priests of Hungary and other Eastern-European countries; the general demonstration of the fact that no ecclesiastical establishment or member of the clergy is safe from Communist power; to disclaim the moral authority of the US and the West by showing that the beneficiaries of political power can violate religious freedom with impunity, they can ignore public opinion and infringe upon the rights of citizens.

Križari: ustaška gerila 1945.-1950. - problemi istraživanja

Author(s): Zdenko Radelić / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 1/2000

The author attempts to introduce a new theme in Croatian historiography by pointing the problems he encountered with sources and literature. The fundamental problem is that the primary documents are predominantly from one side in the conflict, the Yugoslav secrete service (UDBA). The problem is augmented by the fact that those sources consist of studies made during the sixties, based on recollections of participants in the period 1945-1950, whereas there are very few documents from the period of struggle with the Crusaders. The very real problem is the absence of documents by Crusaders themselves, which makes the verification of the documents of the victorious side very difficult. The literature, not abundant, produced by participants of the sides in conflict, is not very useful for research.

Pučko-ustaški zbor generala Metzgera i općenarodna obrana u NDH krajem Drugog svjetskog rata

Author(s): Nikica Barić / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 1/2000

At the end of 1944. NDH was in a very difficult military and political position. Not only were strong Tito's Partisan forces operating on its territory, but at the same time Soviets and Partisans occupied Serbia and advanced to the eastern border of NDH. This was the reason for the NDH authorities to reorganise their existing armed forces, and also to organise a nation-wide mobilisation. This organization, which was under control of the civilian authorities, was intended to be filled with men not serving in the armed forces and women. Its main purpose was to help war efforts with variouslabour activities (agricultural works, construction of fortifications). There were also plans to create armed units of people's defence, but NDH was short of infantry weapons even for its armed forces, so these plans were never materialized. Because of the difficult military situation, people's defence units were never organized in most pat1s of the NDH. At the same time NDH armed forces organized the People's Uprising Corps under command of general Metzger. This unit, which was much more effective than the people's defence, was active in Slavonia, Srijem and northern Bosnia and filledwith around 40 000 civilians living in that area. Its main duties were agricultural works on farms abandoned by their Volksdeutcher owners who were evacuated to the Third Reich, repairment of roads, construction of field fortifications, guard duties, etc.

Zapovjednici i dužnosnici jasenovačke skupine logora 1941. - 1945.

Author(s): Davor Kovačić / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 1/2000

In the majority of published works about the Jasenovac concentration camp the dominant place is given to the number of killed and perished, which were often for political expediency raised and multiplied. Much lesser number of publications deals with the internal structure and operation of the camp and with those who operated it. Among those who ran the camp, two names are of particular interest: Ljubo Miloš and Miroslav Filipović Majstorović, who were its commanders for a period. Because Majstorović was a former Catholic priest who was expelled from the Franciscan order, the anti-Catholic propaganda used that circumstance, and is still using it, to accuse the Catholic Church for participation in crimes.

PSEUDORELIGIJSKO LEGITIMIZIRANJE EKSTREMIZMA I DEKONTEKSTUALIZACIJA ISLAMA

Author(s): Meho Šljivo / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 65/2016

The article discusses fundamental factors of pseudo-religious legitimisation of Muslim extremism. Through selective approach towards religious sources and with hermeneutics of the same sources dragged outside their context, various ideologies support and encourage extremism and Muslim sectarianism. Such reinterpretation of Islam is most evident in forging some frequently used Islamic terminology, and constructing new terminology alien to original Islam, application of which intensifies religious extremism, intolerance and exclusivism. Competent Muslim scholars should answer these innovative hermeneutic interpretations of Islam and thus significantly contribute in deconstruction of ideological platform upon which religious extremism is based.

Reinterpretacija povijesti i revizionistička zastranjenja na Balkanu

Author(s): François Bacharach / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 21/2016

Godine 2016., samo tri godine nakon što je Hrvatska ušla u Europsku uniju, a Srbija taj europski put smatra svojom glavnom maršrutom, moramo konstatirati da zemlje bivše Jugoslavije imaju silnih poteškoća u suočavanju s mračnim stranicama svog 20. stoljeća, kako onima iz Drugog svjetskog rata, tako i onima koje su se ispisale u sukobima devedesetih. Jednako pregnantan i u političkim i akademskim krugovi ma, taj se fenomen očituje u povijesnom revizionizmu i negiranju zločina koji su okrvavili Balkan. I stavlja pred izazov temeljna načela Europe.

Suočavanje ili obračun s prošlošću?

Author(s): Hrvoje Klasić / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 21/2016

Dvadeset i pet godina nakon proglašenja neovisnosti i dvadeset godina nakon završetka rata hrvatsko je društvo u usporedbi s društvima ostalih država nastalih raspadom Jugoslavije najopterećenije (vlastitom) prošlošću. Posljedica toga je činjenica da su Hrvatima nakon raznih povijesnih iskustava s ≫drugima≪ najveći problem da nas postali upravo pripadnici vlastitog naroda. Razlozi ovoj toliko očitoj podjeli koja je po nekima već prerasla u ≫verbalni građanski rat≪ leže upravo u prošlosti.

Revizija povijesti poezijom

Author(s): Dražen Katunarić / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 21/2016

Gore prepisane Danteove tercine mogle bi biti nezaboravne iz današnjeg kuta gledanja kad se zna da je Papa Martin IV. 1281. Godine završio u čistilištu samo zato što je volio jesti ugore pa nije papovao kako je trebao. Volio je osobito ugore iz jezera Bolsene, a pripravljali su mu ih tako da su ih najpri je žive metali u vino, a on da istom pekli, piše u bilješci.

Kosovo and the Bar Tragedy of March 1945

Author(s): Robert Elsie / Language(s): English Issue: 71/2012

Communist partisan forces took Kosovo in December 1944 and returned it to Serbian rule, after a brief interlude under Italian and German occupation. Soon thereafter, great numbers of Kosovo Albanians of men and boys were forcefully mobilized into the Yugoslav Army, not only to strengthen its ranks, but in particular, to overcome any potential anti-communist resistance in Kosovo by getting as many young men as possible out of the country. In late March 1945, about 7 700 men were mustered in Prizren and sent off to the coast in unarmed echelons of about 2 000 each, ostensibly to fight the retreating Germans. They soon discovered that they were not soldiers, but prisoners. Of these men, 2 355 perished at the hands of their communist officers and guards, 1 560 in Bar (Antivari) alone. This paper tells of the massacres and of the tragedy that set the pace for post-war ethnic relations in Kosovo.

Prostorno, etičko i memorijsko preinačavanje jedinog sačuvanog dela arhitekte Nikole Dobrovića u Beogradu

Author(s): Rea Terzin / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 6/2017

The main goal of this paper is to represent cultural, aesthetic and ethical importance, as well as to critically examine the ongoing reconstruction project of the Yugoslavia’s Secretariat for National Defense, that has recently been announced by the Assembly of the City of Belgrade on the basis of decision on adapting the building into a complex dedicated to the memory of Prince Stefan Nemanja. The clarification of the significance of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Serbia and Montenegro will also move into direction of pointing out its aesthetic, functional and symbolic value of the attention that, due to all respects, should be paid to the necessity for consistent valorization and adequate future recontextualization of the only saved object of the architect Nikola Dobrović in Belgrade. Another important question, which has been actualized lately, is the reconstruction of the Federal ministry of Defense. The emphasis is also put on the influence of political ideology on architecture. Accordingly, the basic task on thematic frame shall be to reconsider and critically review the current issue of reconstruction and resemantisation of this building, which is the masterpiece of architect Nikola Dobrović.

ET IN HUNGARIA EGO: TRIANON, REVISIONISM AND THE JOURNAL MAGYAR SZEMLE (1927–1944)

Author(s): Matthew Caples / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2005

The journal Magyar Szemle (1927–1944), founded by Prime Minister István Bethlen and edited by the historian Gyula Szekfû, was the primary forum for the discussion of the revision of the Treaty of Trianon and the situation of the Hungarian minorities in the neighboring states. Rejecting all proposals for border revision on an ethnic basis, the journal espoused integral revisionism, or the restoration of the historical Kingdom of Hungary. The periodical’s own position on revision is best illustrated by the “New Hungaria” essays of the legal scholar László Ottlik, published between 1928 and 1940, which hoped to win back the former national minorities through promises of wide-ranging autonomy within a re-established Greater Hungary.

Александър Стамболийски и идеите за южнославянска федерация на Балканите

Author(s): Dimitar Mitev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1-2/2017

The ideas about the establishment of a South Slavic Federation represent an important part of Al. Stamboliyski’s ideology. However, this topic has escaped the attention of the numerous researchers that have studied his life and work. One explanation is that the ideas in question did not fit into the matrix of his image built by the propaganda in the decades after the Second World War. The author of the paper tries to shed light on that particular omission in the research of his political ideology. The paper is based on documentation from Central State Archives, Sofia; Bulgarian Historical Archives, National Library, Sofia; Archives of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Art, Belgrade; Archives of Foreign Office, London and others.

„Byliśmy młode chłopaki, razem w tej kupie gnoju” – odpolitycznienie pamięci narodowej i rewizjonizm historyczny w pierwszowojennych powieściach Toma Phelana i Sebastiana Barry’ego

Author(s): Beata Piątek / Language(s): Polish Issue: 4/2018

Piątek explores the fiction of two contemporary Irish writers – Tom Phelan and Sebastian Barry. Both try to depoliticize national memory and work through the collective trauma of the war. Phelan’s The Canal Bridge (2005) and Barry’s A Long Long Way (2005) recall the traumatic experience of thousands of Irishmen who fought in the British army in World War I. By returning the marginalized events to the national memory, the two writers come to terms with the past and prepare the ground for a better future.

Mak i prepravljanje povijesti danas

Author(s): Srećko Marijanović / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 95-96/2018

Svjedoci smo danas, kako kopači u gomilama i jamama, otvarajući grobove i stare rane, iznova postavljajući srušene temelje povijesti, u namjeri oplakati svoje mrtve i ukazati na greške iz prošlosti, svojom upornošću i tvrdoglavim radom mijenjaju povijest. Možda i više nego sve vojne i vojskovođe prije njih. Tako i Mak Dizdar svojim pjesmama danas postavlja vidno polje srednjeg vijeka i razdoblja prije i poslije njega, pred drukčije i izoštrenije naše oči, oslobođene naslijeđa iz prošlosti, jugokomunističkih i velikosrpskih zabluda, protiv kojih se i on sam borio i zbog njih velika stradanja imao.

Great Romania under the Menace of the European Extremism and Revisionism

Author(s): Florin Nacu / Language(s): English Issue: 58/2018

In this article, there is presented the way in which the adversaries of Great Romania made efforts to fight for its dismemberment, immediately after 1918. The Great Union coincided with the revolution from 1917, and the reinvigoration of revisionism, due to the degree of permissiveness in the Peace Treaties from Paris-Versailles, 1919-1920. The actions meant to destabilise Romania were carried out both from the interior and exterior. There were subversive, violent actions, coordinated by the Soviet and German secret services. Romania did not manage to have a position on the international plan for counteracting the effects of the German and Soviet proximity, which had been foreseen by the diplomat Nicolae Titulescu. In the 22 years, the period Great Romania resisted, there could be seen how complex the evolution of the internal and external politics was, promoted by the decisional factors from Bucharest. The conclusion is that the degradation of the international political system, the ascension of the revisionism, the lack of a coherent dialogue between the representatives of the Romanian political currents, the emerging and the evolution of the extremes represent the causes that led to the collapse of Great Romania, in the summer of 1940.

Полската и чешката национална пропаганда в Тешинска Силезия в периода 1919–1920 година

Author(s): Viktor Rogozenski / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 2/2018

The article focuses on the Polish and the Czech national propaganda in Teschen Silesia in the period 1919–1920, which received a wide range after the settling of the territorial dispute between Poland and Czechoslovakia by a plebiscite – a decision taken at a meeting of the Supreme Council of the Entente on 11th September, 1919, and finally confirmed on 27th September of that year. Based on rich documentary material in Polish and Czech, mainly from the archive “Książnica Cieszyńska”, the author presents the pro-Polish and anti-Czech and pro-Czech and anti-Polish propaganda campaigns conducted by a variety of means: most frequently posters, texts, photo materials, leaflets. Such materials were spread on streets and in public places, read at public meetings during processions and rallies, stuck on walls, fences and pillars. Some of them were published in the press. The article also presents the groups of the population targeted by this propaganda. The author concludes that this propaganda not only did not help to regulate the conflict between the two countries but also became one of the factors for its deepening, which justified the intervention of external forces in the tension between Poland and Czechoslovakia.

Michael Choniates’ Monody on Theophylaktos Belissariotes: A New Critical Edition and Study

Author(s): Alexandros Papadopoulos / Language(s): English Issue: 1-2/2023

The present article examines the monody that Michael Choniates composed regarding the death of Theophylaktos Belissariotes, who was the brother of Niketas Choniates’ wife. The monody was delivered on the occasion of Theophylaktos’ funeral which took place in Athens, where he was buried after his death, during the last quarter of the twelfth century. Theophylaktos’ premature death arguably dominates the whole monody, which undoubtedly intensifies the unbearable sorrow of his close friends and relatives. The lamentation is intense, however, the deceased is also praised for his physical beauty and the numerous virtues of his character. The aim of this study, which consists of the following parts, is to provide a detailed analysis of the oration: an introduction, observations on genre issues, a new critical edition based on the codex Laurentianus gr. 59.12 (thirteenth century), as well as an annotated English translation.
