Dislocated Screen Memory
The links between cinema and war machines have long been established. This book explores the range, form, and valences of trauma narratives that permeate the most notable narrative films about the breakup of Yugoslavia.
The Development of Aspirated Fricatives in Gothic
This book presents three major hypotheses concerning the development of fricatives in Gothic. First, Gothic introduced aspiration or a phonological feature [spread glottis] to the fricative system. Second, this acquisition of aspirated fricatives should be explained as a contact-induced change. Specifically, a Gothic/Greek bilingual community may be held responsible for initiating and diffusing the contact change. Third, I claim that this contact-driven featural enrichment prompted an array of radical restructurings of fricatives in their phonological and morphological organizations in Gothic, notably the occurrence of Final Devoicing in contrast to the nonoccurrence of medial voicing, the elimination of Verner’s Law effects in strong verbs, the operation of Thurneysen’s Law, and the apparently irregular split of PGmc. */fl-/ to Go. /fl-/ and /þl-/. Thus, privileged by a Lower Danube community largely composed of Greek/Gothic bilinguals, this cluster of mid-fourth-century innovations came to define the phonological and morphological identities of Biblical Gothic.
Notes from the Underground
The Cinema of Emir Kusturica: Notes from the Underground is the first book on the Sarajevan film-maker to be published in English. With seven highly acclaimed films to his credit, Kusturica is already established as one of the most important of contemporary filmmakers, with each of his films winning prizes at major festivals around the world. In covering films such as Underground, Arizona Dream, and Black Cat, White Cat, this timely new study delves into diverse facets of Kusturica's work, much of which is passionately dedicated to the marginal and the outcast, as well as discourses of national and cultural identity.
Fra skorpionernes verden
I de seneste år ser den politiske modernitetskritik ud til at have vundet momentum i Europa. Den spænder fra nationalistiske og nationalkonservative folkepartier i Vesteuropa til en fascistoid kristen-nationalistisk vækkelse, som den man ser i Serbien. I rejse- og essaybogen Fra skorpionernes verden tegner forfatteren et perspektiv på den ideologiske kamp, som finder sted i mange europæiske lande, og lokaliserer kulturen og religionen som de faktorer, der bliver mobiliseret som en politisk ideologi. I en europæisk casestory af denne konflikt følger vi forfatterens rejser og undersøgelser på Balkan, hvor han skriver om personer, hvis liv blev druknet i krigens malstrøm i den sidste halvdel af 1990’erne. Det kristne Serbiens folkemordskrig mod de bosniske muslimer fortælles igennem disse enkeltmenneskers skæbne som det mest radikale, og det mest tydelige udtryk for den generelle type af konfrontation, der i disse år efter den kolde krig hærger i Europa.

Conservation of Endangered Freshwater Fish in Europe
Two events have recently improved the prospects of protecting fish and their environment in Switzerland: the acceptance of a new Federal Water Protection Law in the plebiscite of May 17th 1992, and the new Federal Legislation on Fisheries, in force since January 1st 1994. With this legal framework, the possibilities for protection of nature and landscape have now considerably improved in Switzerland. The most important aims of the Federal Law on Water Protection are to safeguard the natural habitats of the native flora and fauna and water as the habitat of aquatic organisms. This includes not only the preservation or restoration of water quality in lakes and rivers, but also, in rivers used ...
