Author(s): Antanas Šenavičius / Language(s): Lithuanian Issue: 3/2014

Civil (Napoleonic) Code, dated 1804, constitutes not only the core of the French Civil Law but is equally a great codification example of Roman Private Law. The Code came from the spirit the French Revolution. It radically eliminated feudal legal traditions and established the principles of Property Law, Freedom of Contract Law, Family Law, Law on Inheritance. The Code reflects the historical results of the development of law and creates the legal framework for the development of the modern Civil Law. European countries experienced the influence of the Code. The Code had an impact on almost all legal codifications of Civil Law in Europe. It was also accepted by many Latin American countries. Due to the conquests of Napoleon on 1808, the Code was introduced in southern Lithuania (the lands behind the Neman) and existed there by 1 December 1940.

EVOLUTIA URBANISTICA A SEBESULUI ÎN SECOLELE XVII-XVIII: ORASUL INTRA MUROS

Author(s): Anghel Călin / Language(s): Romanian Issue: -/2009

economically and demographically, but also urbanistically. There were no noteworthy undertakings in what regards public edifices except for some consolidation and modernisation works focused on the town fortifications. This is when the two barbicans marking the two main gateways of the town, the eastern and the western one, were built. The buildings of Sebes got severely damaged in 1661 when the Turks conquered the town and set it on fire. This event hastened the replacement of the wooden houses, which continued to be quite numerous for that time, with stone and brick constructions. Documents dating from the late 17th Century and the early 18th Century mention the main streets of the town as well as the four neighborhoods on the structure of which the Rosarum, Jacobi, Petri and Siculorum quarters were later built. Beginning with the 18th century, the defensive function of the town fortifications diminishes gradually as a result of the period of relative calm that had settled in Transylvania. Houses are built closer and closer to the walls, the surrounding ditches begin to be filled in and the lakes to be drained off. The plots of land thus obtained were turned into gardens. In the year 1731 the magistrate and the local community give the former Dominican monastery to the Franciscan Order. In 1740 the monastery and its outbuildings were renovated with the support of Empress Maria Theresia. The 18th Century pieces of information regarding the buildings of the town are more numerous and of a better quality compared to the ones dating from previous centuries. The descriptions are more detailed and, occasionally, they refer to importantconstructions such as the Evangelical Parochial Church, the town hall and various elements of the town fortification. One such description is that written by Georg Marienburger in 1785.

‘Serious girls’, prostitutes and ‘whores’. Calling genders to order

Author(s): Marta Maia / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2011

The sexual representations and the sexual experiences of individuals are marked by the gender they belong to, which induces social roles and differentiated ideals and determines behaviours, namely those that concern the body and sexuality. The speeches of young people questioned in an ethnological investigation on sexual representations in the Eastern suburb of Paris, denounce the opposition between feminine and masculine values, and show the difference between the representations and behaviours of young males and females. The speeches of young people denote a distinction between the ‘serious girl’, the prostitute and the ‘whore’, which marks a hierarchy of moral values, in relation to their behaviour in general and to their sexual behaviour in particular.

Migrants and healthcare within the European Union

Author(s): Raluca Nagy / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2011

The investigation of migration can help us understand how the types of migration interact with each other as well as with the various local/national ‘immobilities’. Migrants pose special challenges to healthcare systems, in their origin as well as destination countries. Available data on this topic, following EU interests and policies, focuses on health problems of vulnerable migrant groups, often directed exclusively to issues that can affect the local population. This paper aims to set some explanatory contexts when it

Кадрирање кул­турне интимности: некол­ико мисл­и о динамици самопредстављања и самопоимања у српској кинематографији

Author(s): Slobodan Naumović / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 1/2010

The work is an attempt to determine how the concept of cultural intimacy offered by Michael Hercfeld – assigning him as one form of cultural identity that is considered a source of ex­ternal embarrassment, but also providing community members a feeling of security for belonging to the society – can enrich the standard procedures of the anthropological analysis of the film, and analysis of the functioning of national cinema. The analysis includes ex­amples that are classified by elementary chronological (1896–1945, 1945–2000, 2000–present) and thematic criteria (a war film about World War I, the partisan war movie, film noir, Roma film, a film about gender stereotypes, a tragic comedy). Based on the analysis of ex­amples, we can conclude that cultural intimacy as a model provides a valid framework for ex­amining the visual narrative when it is engaged in bringing into question the official national (and nation- alist) discourse that is prescribed and imposed on the society as the dominant cultural code, especially when such practices of internal hegemony are described and criticized through the views of “ordinary people“ and/or marginalized groups, when the ambiguity is not purposely disintegrated and the sides in the conflict are deeply tied. Also, cultural intimacy as a model helps to better understand the practice of authors who metaphorically play with certain forms of social margin, and find in them the general framework of social self-concept, not taking identity from the social groups that practice that concept. On the other hand, the categories of cultural intimacy is of little use in the cases where film is used to transfer the official ideology, or national project, which forces the establishment of cultural and ideological homogeneity in the society with the help of radical ex­clusion of all those who do not fit into such a firm model. It is also not useful in analysis of highly stylized, anti-realistic and radically critical intoned projects. Finally, its greatest analytical value comes not from the answers it provides, but from the question that it opens.

Ликвидиране на монархията в България чрез референдум

Author(s): Rumyana Bogdanova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1-2/2002

A Council of Regency, appointed by the first Fatherland Government, existed as an institution in Bulgaria from September 9, 1944, to September 15, 1946. The “People’s Regency” fulfilled the functions of Head of State on behalf of Simeon II, but the Palace did not exist as a real political factor. The Council of Regency formally approved the laws and ordinances on the basis of the Turnovo Constitution which had not been officially revoked. The agony of the monarchy in Bulgaria went on for two years. Reduced to a fiction, it was preserved until 1946 when “the clearing of the way towards socialism”, started on September 9, 1944, entered a new more decisive stage. All the major political campaigns were invariably co-ordinated with Moscow and the domestic political considerations were not always determinant. In September 1944 the Bulgarian Workers’ Party (communists) waited for directives from the Kremlin about the period of existence of the monarchy and declared its willingness to fulfil them implicitly. A catalyst for speeding up the movement towards imposing the Soviet model in the countries that had fallen within the range of the “liberating mission” of the Red Army became the international situation. One of the major political reforms for changing the form of state rule from a constitutional monarchy to a republic was carried out as part of the decisive political advance launched in 1946 when the symptoms of the East-West confrontation determined the new course in Eastern Europe. Officially the institute of monarchy in Bulgaria was abolished by direct vote of the broad masses of the people but its fate was decided under the influence of other factors. The results of the referendum held on September 8, 1946 could hardly be regarded as a real indicator of the republican moods of the voters without taking into account the home and international conditions in which the referendum was held, the political climate and the escalation of the political tension in the country in the summer of 1946.

Естетика на незабравеното човешко присъствие

Author(s): Svetlana Zaharieva / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1/1986

The article is based upon the thesis about folklore as a type of artistic culture and the need deriving from it to study the entire act of culture from the viewpoint of its artistic dimensions and the individual person – as a part of the integral continuum of the artistic subject. The first section of the article considers the two-sided structure of the artistic subject: as an ideal image (in terms of worldview, society and art) and as a substantiation of this ideal through the live and concrete presence of man and his actions. The resulting artistic product (poetic image, musical tune or dance step) should therefore be regarded not as an autonomous artistic “Work” (an approach taken on from the aesthetics of autonomous professional art), but as a peculiar “extension” of the artistic subject, a specific form of materialized human presence. The inclusion of the individual person as a cultural element of the artistic whole is closely connected with the problem of the two-sided existence of the artistic phenomenon – as a unity of virtual and actual existence – and with the question or correlations between the two aspects (relations of opposition, isomorphism and complementation). The last section of the article deals with the various methodological aspects of analysis of the folk art with a view to take into consideration the two-sided nature of the artistic phenomenon.

Априлската политика на партията и въпросите на българския фолклор и фолклористиката ни

Author(s): Vladimir Penchev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1/1986

The article treats the positive influence of the 1956 April Plenum of the Central Committee of the Bulgarian Communist Party in the sphere of artistic culture. The author underlines the substantial changes and achievements of our present-day folkloristics and the basic trends in the process of interpreting and promoting our folk arts tradition. He considers the various folklore initiatives of the people, mainly the folklore rallies, the appearance and the development of professional choruses and ensembles and he points out the influx of young talented performers of folklore, the affiliation of the people with the folk arts, their broad popularization, as well as the interest towards folklore on the part of contemporary Bulgarian men of arts. The conclusion is drawn that this interest, characteristic of Bulgarian society and our national culture in general, does not disappear in our days but, on the contrary, it acquires new tendencies and new dimensions. Brief account is also given in the article of the positive changes in the development of Bulgarian folkloristics after September 9th, 1944, and especially after the 1956 April Plenum of the Central Committee of the Bulgarian Communist Party. Finally, the author points out that new important tasks face our folklorists both with regard to the advanced development of science and the up-to-date “equipment” of the folklore studies.

Епическият вариант на фолклорната концепция за историята на етноса

Author(s): Plamen Bochkov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1/1986

At a certain stage in the development of a given ethnic community a specific mechanism of inheriting historical memory forms within the frames of the folklore culture, a diffused information net evolves, which is capable of accumulating and conveying in the course of time the cultural and historical characteristic features of the ethnos. The folk epic tradition is considered here as a memory of the ethnos, a peculiar variety of the historical memory. By means of this approach the author analyses some “milestones” in the history of the ethnos, which are embedded in the system of epic imagery. He reveals the function of the legends about traces left by Marko as a system of signs of ethnic differentiation. In this respect the heroic epic tradition is studied as an information process which includes, besides the key concept of “memory”, selection as well, the latter in its function of restricting the variety of information. On the basis of data from folk rituals, folk plastic arts, folktales and the heroic epos an attempt is made to trace the process of incorporation of one mythological symbol into the various folklore genres and to show its gradual filling with contents bearing ethnic differentiation.
