Salonica was the centre of the national idea in the Ottoman Empire, which distinguished it essentially from the cosmopolitan Ottoman cities along the Asia Minor coast. The Bulgarians had a significant role to play in the political and ideological ebullience that had gripped the city in the first decade of the 20th century. Its representatives were among the most prominent proponents of the national, socialist and anarchist idea that inevitably influenced the Jewish community in the city. Even though its Jewish population did not identify itself with the national-liberation aspirations of the Christian population, the proximity of the Balkan nation states and particularly of Bulgaria had a tangible effect on the city and predetermined its fate.

Informatization of the education system is the most reliable and promising innovation opportunity for the 21st century school. It can and should become the foundation for the process of global informatization of the entire community, as information and communication technologies (ICTs) place learners of all types and levels of school facing new intellectual challenges and make the learning process more flexible and effective, space and access to information. Informatization of the educational system, as a process, must go beyond that ofother super structural phenomena in society, since the social, psychological, general cultural, moral and ethical and professional prerequisites for informatization of the whole society are built up at the school and the university. Only a person trained in the skills and desires for the realization of humanistic social ideas, possessing the spirit of new technologies, with innovative thinking, will be able to change society through its activity in material and spiritual production.

Over the past two years, the pandemic caused by the COVID-19 virus has put to the test all spheres of life not only in Bulgaria but also worldwide. It can be claimed that the educational sector has acted adequately and has been able to deal with the challenge. The article presents research on the implementation of various e-learning tools by Bulgarian and foreign universities. The research was conducted at the beginning of the pandemic caused by COVID-19 by surveying students and lecturers. It turns out that despite the plethora of e-learning tools, at many universities, even in technologically advanced countries such as China, in most cases, education is delivered through distance learning and course management systems, for instance Moodle. The research objective is to ascertain the degree of implementation of various e-learning tools at Bulgarian and foreign universities. The research subject is the degree of implementation of e-learning tools, whereas the research object is students and lecturers from Bulgarian and foreign universities. The hypothesis, which is proven, is that the implementation of diverse e-learning tools is insufficient, despite the fact that their importance is acknowledged at all levels of learning and teaching.

Lucretius II: An Ethics of Motion (2020), written by Thomas Nail, is an alternative book to approach posthumanism from a philosophical aspect. Its focus on motion correlates posthuman thinking with sociological, political, and philosophical dynamics by applying to Lucretius and continental philosophers. Its philosophical frame allows readers to comprehend posthumanism deeply by applying to ethics. The conceptualization of posthumanism, motion, and ethics is grounded in four fundamental methodologies including historical ontology, close reading, translation, and argumentation. Thus, the abstraction of the book is quite inclusive to envision what philosophical posthumanism is by delving into Lucretius’s philosophy.

The paper deals with L2-L1 translation as used in different phases of an ES(A)P (English for specific academic purposes) course for different purposes – namely, as a complementary class activity carried out throughout the course, as well as one of the means of assessing students’ reading comprehension. It foregrounds the importance of selecting adequate materials, and elaborates on the different factors that this selection is dependent on. An extensive analysis of translations by students of the humanities and social sciences at the Faculty of Philosophy in Belgrade has been carried out, the results of which have been used to substantiate the rationale behind the use of translation as a learning and assessment tool, while indicating the kind of translation materials most appropriate for the two purposes. The paper also aims to contribute to the reevaluation of the use of translation in ESP, since it has for a long time been “ostracised” from language teaching practice, while placing this activity/tool in the context of the humanities and social sciences, which have also been undeservedly neglected in EFL/ESP studies.

In this paper, the motif of wedding in the novel Nečista krv (Impure Blood), by Borisav Stanković is analysed from the viewpoint of erotological theory of George Bataille. The wedding is observed as a celebration resulting in psychoerotic release of the individual. The erotica manifested here has a key role in profiling two different cultures, the urban culture and the rural culture, personified in the Effendi Mita’s and Gazda Marko’s families. By comparing the urban and rural weddings, distinctive erotic features of the two cultures are perceived, as well as differences in character and aim of the celebration.

This paper examines the last two literary works of George Orwell with the aim to analyze his political beliefs. Although these works have remained characterized primarily as critiques of totalitarianism and the Stalinist version of socialism, the pur- pose of this study is to show Orwell’s attitude towards the ideas of socialism in theory with parallel comparison of Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four. Furthermore, in order to consider this problem more comprehensively, it was necessary to research the author’s attitude towards capitalism and liberalism. The article is divided into two main sections. The first section gives a brief overview of Orwell’s political evolution from the second to the fourth decades of 20th century. The second section examines the content of the books which are the subject of research. The article proves that Orwell remained committed to the ideas of democratic socialism in both of his liter- ary works. Portrayal of Orwell as an anti-socialist is unjustified and was formed due to the Cold War context in the West. Additionally, the article concludes that Orwell’s Animal Farm and 1984 contain a critique of capitalism and Western imperialism, which is more pronounced in Animal Farm as compared to 1984.

La place et le rôle de Paris et de Berlin en tant que capitales de deux pays importants de l’Europe, mais aussi en tant que capitales des événements culturels dans la première moitié du XXe siècle, et en particulier entre les deux guerres mon- diales, peuvent être étudiés sous différents aspects. Leur énergie créatrice et la forte influence culturelle qu’ils avaient sur le reste du monde sont incontestables, même avant et après cette période. Dans cet article, nous voudrions évoquer les éléments essentiels de leurs activités culturelles, comparer leurs actions culturelles et identi- fier ce qui les a rendus si attrayants pour d’autres pays. Vu les points de départ très différents dans nos relations avec ces pays, le but de cet article est d’analyser leur influence sur la situation culturelle de la Serbie en tant que partie du Royaume de Yougoslavie et plus particulièrement de sa capitale, Belgrade. Alors que la France était un allié traditionnel et un grand ami après la Première Guerre mondiale, l’attitude à l’égard de l’Allemagne a été sensiblement différente et alourdie par les conflits de guerre et les souffrances du peuple serbe. Il est possible de conclure que, dans la période donnée, l’influence culturelle de la France a été dominante, ce pays passant pour un ami à qui certaines omissions pouvaient être pardonnées, tandis que, d’autre part, l’Allemagne a été longtemps considérée avec suspicion, puis une plus grande confiance et une coopération se sont développées, pour être finalement remises en question à la veille d’une nouvelle guerre mondiale.
