Emphasising the significance of foreign languages at the centre of war and conflict, this book argues that 'foreignness' and foreign languages are key to our understanding of what happens in war. Through case studies the book traces the role of languages in intelligence, military deployment, soldier/civilian meetings, occupation and peace building.

W poszukiwaniu nowego kanonu

Konflikty i wojny lat dziewięćdziesiątych XX wieku całkowicie zmieniły krajobraz polityczny i kulturalny Półwyspu Bałkańskiego. Terytorium dawnej Jugosławii rozpadło się na państwa narodowe oraz enklawy narodowościowe o wciąż niejasnym statusie politycznym. Przełom XX i XXI wieku był okresem intensywnego budowania ich nowej tożsamości kulturalnej i politycznej, której podstawą jest gruntownie przebudowany kanon tradycji kulturowej. Przebieg tych procesów w przestrzeni kultury wysokiej i popularnej, ich związek z nową sytuacją polityczną, w tym – z perspektywą integracji europejskiej, obrazują teksty zebrane w tej książce.

Antagonistic Tolerance examines patterns of coexistence and conflict amongst members of different religious communities, using multidisciplinary research to analyze groups who have peacefully intermingled for generations, and who may have developed aspects of syncretism in their religious practices, and yet have turned violently on each other. Such communities define themselves as separate peoples, with different and often competing interests, yet their interaction is usually peaceable provided the dominance of one group is clear. The key indicator of dominance is control over central religious sites, which may be tacitly shared for long periods, but later contested and even converted as dom...

Peeling Potatoes, Painting Pictures

  • Categories: Art

How do women artists in Russia, Estonia, and Latvia view themselves in the post-Soviet era? What is their relationship to feminism and how has that relationship changed following the fall of the Soviet regime? Having conducted over sixty interviews between 1995 and 1998, Renee Baigell and Matthew Baigell explore in this volume these women's seemingly second-class status, the difficulties of pursuing an art career in a male-dominated society, and the attitudes--often hostile--of their male counterparts toward feminist concerns. The artists interviewed--some born as early as the 1920s, others as recently as the 1970s--discuss their private lives and situations, as well as specific works of art...
