Attitudes of preschool teachers towards teaching science and their relationship with attitudes toward gender roles
Full text linkJedan od zadataka suvremenih odgojitelja jest poticanje djeteta na otkrivanje, eksperimentiranje i
istraživanje u bogatoj vrtićkoj okolini u svrhu razvoja znanstvenog načina mišljenja. Međutim, PISA testiranja iz područja znanosti i matematike već godinama idu u korist dječacima. Opažena razlika može biti posljedica različitih okolinskih utjecaja prisutnih od najranije dobi. Prema
tome, stav odgojitelja o rodnim ulogama djece može biti povezan sa stavovima o znanstvenim aktivnostima u vrtiću kao tradicionalno „muškim“ aktivnostima rezerviranim za dječake. Cilj ovog rada bio je istražiti stavove odgojiteljica prema poučavanju znanosti u dječjim vrtićima, ali
i utvrditi povezanosti s njihovim općim podacima i stavovima o rodnim ulogama djece. U online istraživanju sudjelovala je 481 odgojiteljica u dobi od 23 do 64 godine s prosječno 14 godina radnog iskustva. Njihovi stavovi ispitani su Ljestvicom stavova odraslih prema rodnim ulogama
djece i Ljestvicom stavova prema poučavanju znanosti u predškolskim ustanovama te su prikupljeni opći podaci. Rezultati pokazuju kako stavovi prema poučavanju znanosti nisu povezani s dobi ili godinama radnog staža, već s važnosti vjere. Nadalje, što odgojiteljice imaju
tradicionalnije stavove prema rodnim ulogama, to doživljavaju više anksioznosti i manje ugode prilikom provedbe znanstvenih aktivnosti, percipiraju manju samoefikasnost u poučavanju, više su ovisne o kontekstualnim faktorima (npr. postojanju materijala za poučavanje znanosti), znanost percipiraju manje relevantnom i doživljavaju više poteškoća u poučavanju. U radu su
raspravljene praktične implikacije i smjernice za buduća istraživanja.One of the main goals of the present-day preschool teachers is to encourage children to discover, experiment and research in a rich environment for the purpose of developing a scientific way of thinking. However, for years PISA tests in the field of science and mathematics are in favor of
boys. The observed difference may be the consequence of the various contextual influences present from the earliest age. The attitudes of preschool teachers about children gender roles can be related to attitudes about scientific activities as traditional "male" activities reserved for boys. The aim of this study was to investigate attitudes of preschool teachers about teaching science, as
well as to establish correlations with general data and attitudes about children gender roles. 481
preschool teachers between the ages of 23 and 64 with an average of 14 years of work experience participated in On-line survey. Their attitudes were studied by the Child Rearing Sex- Roles Attitudes Scale and Dimensions of Attitude Toward Science. Also, general and
demographic data were collected. The results show that attitudes towards teaching science are not related to their age or experience, but to their importance of religion. Furthermore, preschool teachers who have more traditional attitudes towards gender roles experience more anxiety and
less comfort when demonstrating scientific activity, perceive less self-efficiency in teaching, are
more dependent on contextual factors (e.g., the existence of science teaching materials) and experience more difficulty in teaching. Practical implications and recommendations for future research are addressed in this paper
Ideal bodhisatte u theravādskoj tradiciji
Full text linkU ovome će se radu predstaviti ideal bodhisatte u okviru tradicije škole theravāde. U drugom i trećem poglavlju dat će se nužni podatci o theravādskom buddhizmu kao i o korpusu tekstova objedinjenih pod nazivom Tipiṭaka. Zatim će se kratko opisati mahāyānski buddhizam (četvrto poglavlje) kako bi se pobliže odredile sličnosti i razlike u poimanju ideala bodhisatte između tih nerijetko suprotstavljenih buddhističkih pravaca. U središnjem će dijelu rada (peto poglavlje) biti objašnjena etimologija pojma bodhisatta nakon čega će se objasniti različitost poimanja bodhisatte u prve četiri nikāye Suttapiṭake i njegova prikaza u petoj nikāyi kao i istaknutim izvankanonskim djelima. U šestom će se poglavlju istaknuti ključne sastavnice ideala bodhisatte: zavjet, potvrda, deset savršenstava (pāramitā) i karuṇa (suosjećanje) kao motivacija. Prisutnost ideala bodhisatte u theravādskom buddhizmu bit će dokazana izdvajanjem i opisom sadržaja kanonskih tekstova u kojima se taj ideal očituje, a posebna će se pažnja posvetiti kanonskim knjigama Jātaka, Buddhavaṃsi i Cariyāpiṭaki. Prije zaključnoga dijela rada, bit će riječi o prethodnim buddhama, budućem buddhi Metteyi kao i odnosu kraljeva, redovnika i ostalih theravādskih buddhista prema tom idealu
Generic and Narrative and Structures of Croatian Queer Fiction
No full textPremda je značenje pojma „queer“ i u izvornome, anglosaksonskom, kontekstu sporno, seksualnost je još uvijek ključni predmet queer teorije, metodološkoga pristupa koji sam koristila kako bih komentirala žanrovske i pripovjedne odlike hrvatske queer proze. Ovaj je rad pregled tekstova (uglavnom kratkih priča i romana) koji se eksplicitno bave gej i lezbijskim temama. U cijelome sam radu nastojala proučavanje hrvatske queer proze tretirati kao epistemološki i politički projekt.
Hrvatska queer proza je i prije svoje suvremene etape, razdoblja nakon prvoga Prajda u Zagrebu (2002.), zainteresirana za vrijeme i prostor odnosno propitivanje tih kategorija, a u njoj je primjetna rodna razlika – gej književnost (Ilinčić, Marić) bavi se pustolovinama i putovanjima pojedinca, a lezbijska (Verde, Žmak) privatnim prostorima i ljubavnim parom. Romani i priče o odrastanju (Duhaček, Stojsavljević, Verde) manje su rodno raslojeni i uglavnom se, kao i njihovi strani pandani, bave trenutkom izlaska iz ormara (artikuliranja queer identiteta u javnosti), odlaskom od kuće i mogućnostima uspjeha u
inozemstvu. Novi tematski obzori primjetni su u romanu Poderana koljena (2018.) Dina Pešuta u kojemu queer znači različite tipove rodne, klasne i etničke marginaliziranosti. Pristup koji queer ne izjednačava sa seksualnim ili rodnim
manjinama pojavio se, ipak, ranije – Nataša Bodrožić, Gordan Bosanac i Zvonimir Dobrović, urednici zbirke Poqureene priče (2004.), na početcima suvremene hrvatske queer književnosti queer smatraju nesvodivim na seksualno opredjeljenje.
Osim na suvremenu, osvrnula sam se i na stariju hrvatsku queer književnost, Udovicu (1891.) Josipa Eugena Tomića, neobjavljene dnevnike Naste Rojc i prozu u trapericama upozoravajući na važnost regionalnoga konteksta i
prevratne povijesne događaje. Stalni motivi i povratak širega shvaćanja pojma „queer“ u nedavno objavljenoj hrvatskoj queer prozi sugeriraju da korištenje queer teorije prilikom čitanja onemogućuje shvaćanje povijesti književnosti kao urednoga izmjenjivanja epoha s njihovim reprezentativnim autorima/cama, žanrovima i djelima.“Generic and Narrative and Structures of Croatian Queer Fiction”
Although the meaning of the “queer” concept is contestable even in its original, Anglo-Saxon context, sexuality remains at the core of queer theory, the methodological approach I relied on to discuss genre and narrative features of
Croatian queer fiction. This thesis comprises an overview of texts (mostly short stories and novels) which explicitly deal with essentially gay and lesbian issues.
In my thesis, analysing Croatian queer fiction is taken as both an epistemological and a political project.
Even before its contemporary period, i.e. after the first Gay Pride in Zagreb (2002), Croatian queer fiction held a special interest in temporal and spatial realities, particularly in challenging those categories. An apparent gender difference can be discerened within it – while gay literature (Ilinčić, Marić) centres around adventures and travels of the individual, in lesbian literature it is
private spaces and love couples that stand strong (Verde, Žmak). Coming-of-age stories and novels (Duhaček, Stojsavljević, Verde) are not as genderdifferentiated
but instead – just like their counterparts – mostly take up storylines of coming out (articulating of the queer identity in public), leaving home and trying to make it big abroad. New thematic horizons are evident in Poderana koljena (2018), a novel by Dino Pešut where queer comes to represents various types of gender-, class- and ethnicity-dependent social marginalization. It is not the first time, however, that such a specific approach where queer is not equated with sexual and national minorities could be felt. It had appeared somewhat earlier, with Nataša Bodrožić, Gordan Bosanac and Zvonimir Dobrović, editors of the Poqureene priče (2004) story collection, which was published at the very beginnings of the budding contemporary Croatian queer literature and where queer was viewed as essentially irreducible to the issue of sexual orientation.
My thesis does not cover contemporary fiction exclusively, but includes even earlier examples of Croatian queer literature, i.e. Udovica (1891) by Josip Eugen Tomić, the unpublished diaries of Nasta Rojc, and the so-called “blue jeans fiction”. All the while the context of the region, together with its tumultuous history, was taken into account. Given the recurring motifs, as well as a return to
a wider understanding of the notion of „queer“ in recent Croatian queer fiction, this might be suggest that relying on queer theory upon reading precludes history of literature from being conceived as an orderly sequence of epochs, with their representative authors, genres and works
Uloga prevoditelja i strategije kulturne prilagodbe u paratekstovima Zabavne biblioteke
Full text linkEver since the publishing of Gérard Genette’s Seuils (1987), translation studies have seen numerous studies that aim to use paratexts as a means of obtaining additional culturally relevant information and of deepening one’s understanding of a given text. This paper aims to provide an overview of Genette’s theory and its relevance for translation studies, as well as point to certain theoretical inconsistencies that influenced the way paratexts are approached from the perspective of translation studies. This is followed by an overview of Zabavna biblioteka, a local publishing project undertaken by Nikola Andrić in the early 20th century, within which a large number of literary works originally written in English were translated and published. An analysis of the works’ paratextual material (titles, forewords, illustrations and photographs) is conducted with the aim to gain an insight into adaptation strategies, cultural portrayals and the role of the translator. The goal is to understand the role of the translator in shaping and delivering the publisher’s programmatic principles, and thus to point to a broader cultural significance translation activities had, both within this particular project and in the formation of modern Croatian readershipOtkad je Gérard Genette objavio svoje djelo Seuils (1987.), u znanosti o prevođenju pojavile su se brojne studije koje koriste paratekstove kako bi došle do dodatnih kulturno-relevantnih informacija te produbile razumijevanje tekstova. Cilj je ovoga rada dati pregled Genetteove teorije i njezinog značaja za znanost o prevođenju te ukazati na izvjesne teorijske nedosljednosti koje su utjecale na način na koji se paratekstovima prilazi u znanosti o prevođenju. Zatim slijedi pregled Zabavne biblioteke, lokalnog izdavačkog projekta koji je pokrenuo Nikola Andrić u ranom 20. stoljeću, u okviru kojega je preveden i objavljen velik broj književnih djela izvorno napisanih na engleskom jeziku. Provest će se analiza paratekstualnog materijala (naslova, predgovora, ilustracija i fotografija) ovih djela s težnjom da se dobije uvid u strategije prilagodbe, kulturalne prikaze te ulogu prevoditelja. Cilj je analize ispitati ulogu prevoditelja u oblikovanju i predstavljanju programskih načela urednika te tako ukazati na širi kulturni značaj prevoditeljske prakse za ovaj konkretan projekt te u oblikovanju moderne hrvatske čitateljske publike
Images of Minority Women in the Contemporary American Ethnic Literature
No full textEthnic women in the United States are locked out for both being women and being of color. Both racism and sexism are very strong in the United States, and ethnic women are in quite a few respects at the bottom of American social ladder. More often than not they are deprived of basic human rights, or are given lesser opportunities than white women, or ethnic men. Their salaries are lower, their living conditions are worse, and to top it all, they are prejudiced against, racialized and sexualized on daily basis. They are treated as less then equal members of American society. Ethnic women are a huge group in America, therefore their problem is the U.S.’s problem, and should definitely be focused on. In order to address the issue, it was necessary to introduce several important concepts at the beginning: those were the concepts of whiteness; race, otherness, and ethnicity; and, finally, feminism, especially that of color. Also, three works of fiction are used to illustrate this thesis: Sandra Cisneros’ The House on Mango Street, Mohja Khaf’s The Girl in the Tangerine Scarf, and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Americanah. The main characters have been analyzed from the perspective of being ethnic women in American society. An emphasis is put on how they found their sense of belonging; how they made peace with the dominant culture; to what extent they assimilated, and how they managed to accomplish the task of blending in; how their bodies were racialized; and why it was important for them to appear whiter; and, in the end, why those three protagonists are so special, and what makes them stand out in their respective ethnic groups. It is shown that the images of ethnic women in American literature have centered around certain identifiable tropes and have consistently charted both the persistence of stereotypes and the notions of change
Communication model of mobile library services in the academic libraries
Full text linkMobilni su uređaji donijeli mogućnost izrazite pokretljivosti u prostoru prilikom
pretraživanja informacija i time su utjecali na ponašanje i očekivanja korisnika koji žele
doći do informacije u bilo koje vrijeme i na bilo kojem mjestu. Knjižnice su prepoznale
važnost svjetskog trenda sveprisutnosti mobilnih uređaja te su se počele prilagođavati i sve
više nastoje zadovoljiti potrebe mobilnih korisnika tako da u drugom desetljeću 21. stoljeća
veliki broj knjižnica pruža mobilne izvore i usluge.
Cilj disertacije je istražiti informacijsku interakciju korisnika (studenata i znanstvenonastavnog osoblja) i knjižničara visokoškolskih knjižnica na Sveučilištu u Zagrebu pri
korištenju mobilnih knjižničnih izvora i usluga te izraditi komunikacijski model razmjene
informacija u mobilnom okruženju. Prema ovom cilju postavljene su četiri hipoteze. Kako
bi se one provjerile, provedeno je istraživanje koje je pokazalo kako mobilni uređaji nisu
prihvaćeni kao komunikacijski kanal za prijenos knjižničnih informacija između
knjižničara visokoškolskih knjižnica na Sveučilištu u Zagrebu i njihovih korisnika te da
visokoškolske knjižnice nisu prilagodile svoju komunikaciju korištenju njihovih izvora
putem mobilnih uređaja. Knjižničari, kao i njihovi korisnici, nisu educirani koristiti nove
načine komunikacije koje pružaju mobilni uređaji premda posjeduju solidna znanja i
informacijsko-komunikacijske kompetencije i vještine, no postoji potreba za dodatnom
edukacijom samih knjižničara o mobilnim knjižničnim izvorima i uslugama, kao i potreba
korisnika da ih knjižničari o njima educiraju.
Komunikacijski model razmjene informacija u mobilnom okruženju pretpostavlja
visokoškolsku knjižnicu kao pošiljatelja informacija koji putem mobilnih uređaja kanalizira
poruke u vidu mobilnih knjižničnih izvora i usluga do primatelja/korisnika informacija, a
istim se kanalom odvija i povratna veza. Ključna komunikacijska komponenta modela je
edukacija kao aktivnost kojom se pošiljatelj informacija/knjižnica usmjerava prema
korisniku u cilju usvajanja i unaprjeđenja informacijsko-komunikacijskih kompetencija i
vještina potrebnih za snalaženje u mobilnom okruženju i njihovoj primjeni za korištenje
mobilnih knjižničnih izvora i usluga.Mobile devices have brought a distinct mobility in space and thus influenced the
behavior and users expectations who want to get the information at any time and place.
Libraries have recognized the importance of the global trend of ubiquitous mobile devices
and began to adapt them to meet the needs of mobile users so in the second decade of the
21st century the majority of libraries provide mobile adjusted resources and services.
Given that students are at the forefront of mobile devices accepting and using, this
research includes student population at the University of Zagreb in order to explore
information interaction between users and librarians and to develop a communication
model of information exchange in the mobile environment. In addition faculty members
and librarians are included as they are link between students and information sources.
Taking into account mobile trend, this thesis deals with the influence and changes that
the mobile environment brings to communication between librarians and users in the form
of academic mobile library resources and services.
In the first chapter Development, expansion and use of mobile devices the
terminological ambiguities in the Croatian language related to the appearance of mobile
devices and trends in the context of libraries have been clarified. Given the widespread use
of mobile phones and smartphones, their development, expansion and factors of mobile
devices using are shown.
Theoretical framework chapter provides a theoretical framework with a review of the
theoretical directions and perspectives of computer mediated communication, information
behavioral models and information-communication competences and skills that are
essential part of the communication model of mobile library services in academic libraries.
The chapter Mobile devices and libraries describes the application of mobile devices in
education, the educational role of librarians in academic libraries and the experience of
users and librarians with mobile library resources and services that have shown the user's
interest in accessing all library resources and services through mobile devices as well as
librarian readiness to adapt to such user requirements.
In the chapter Mobile library resources and services mobile web pages, library
applications, mobile catalogues, academic databases, text messages, social networks and
media, new technologies and services were presented as they are important for mobile users
and they are included in the communication model of mobile library services in the
academic libraries.
In the chapter Research on using mobile library resources and services in academic
libraries the aim and hypotheses of research, methodology and the results of the research
were presented and interpreted. Research has showed that mobile devices are not accepted
as a communication channel for the transfer of library information between academic
librarians at the University of Zagreb and their users and that academic libraries did not
adapt their communication regarding using their resources through mobile devices.
Librarians as well as their users are not educated enough to use the new ways of
communication by mobile devices and, although they in general possess sufficient
knowledge and information-communication competences and skills, there is a need for
additional education of librarians on mobile library resources and services as well as the
need of users for librarians to educate them in this regard.
The proposed communication model of information exchange in the mobile
environment presumes the academic library as a sender of information ie. mobile library
resources and services which mobile devices channel to the information recipient/user, and
the same channel is used for the feedback. The key communication component of the
model is education as an activity by which the information sender/library is directed
towards the user in order to adopt and improve the information-communication
competences and skills needed to manage the mobile environment and to apply those skills
(creation and content sharing, security and privacy protection, device synchronization and
„cloud” usage, finding applications), to the use of mobile library resources and services.
In the closing chapter, scientific contribution, general conclusions and thoughts on
Croatian academic libraries mobile resources and services were presented
The spacioception and verbotonal theory
Full text linkOsjet za prostor ili spaciocepcija složeni je osjet koji nastaje na temelju podataka koji u središnji živčani sustavdolaze s periferije iz raznih osjetila. Vid, sluh, propriocepcija, opip i vestibularno osjetilo osjetila su spaciocepcijskog sustava, kojiomogućuje živom biću doživljavanje prostora, njegovo svladavanje, društvenu i kulturnu izgradnju i opstanak vrste.Poznavanje neurofiziologije sustava za osjet prostora ključno je za razumijevanje cjelovitosti komunikacije. Unutar sustava za percepciju prostora, osim prostornih predodžbi, stvaraju se prostorni govor i prostorno mišljenje jer je govor izomorf realnosti. Na taj način nastaje gramatika prostora koja predstavlja korespondenciju i analogiju između svijeta i bića, odnosno rečenice događaja i verbalne rečenice. Budući da je verbotonalni sistem usmjeren na čovjeka (subjekt u procesu komunikacije) i na njegove stvarne mogućnosti, rehabilitacija slušanja i govoratakođer jeusko povezana sa spaciocepcijom. Multisenzoričnost je jedno od temeljnih načela na koja se oslanja verbotonalna teorija i rehabilitacija verbotonalnom metodom. Iako se naglašava važnost razvoja svih osjeta i rehabilitacija somatosenzoričkim putem, valja istaknuti kako vestibularna osjetljivost predstavlja integraciju spaciocepcije.The perception of space or spacioception is a complex sensation that is generated on the basis of the data that comes from the periphery of various senses to the Central nervous system. Sight, hearing, proprioception, touch and vestibular senserepresent sensations of the spacioception system, that allow the living being to experience space, overcome it, create social and cultural construction and survival of the species.Considering the neurophysiology of the sensory space system is essential to understanding the integrity of communication.Within the space perception system, apart from the spatial conceptions, spatial speech and spatial thinking are created because the speech is anisomorph of reality. Thus, a grammar of space emerges, representing the correspondence and analogy between the world and the human being, that is, the sentence of the situation and the verbal sentence. Since the verbotonal system focuses on the individual (subject in the communication process) and on his/herreal possibilities, the rehabilitation of listening and speaking is also closely related to spacioception.Multisensory is one of the fundamental principles of the verbotonal theory and the rehabilitation bythe verbotonal method.Although emphasis is put on the development of all senses and the somatosensory rehabilitation, it should be noticed that vestibular sensitivity represents the spacioception integration
Idioms with a component from the semantic field of food and drink in Turkish and Croatian language
No full textU ovom diplomskom radu analiziraju se turski i hrvatski frazemi i poslovice koji za sastavnicu imaju neki jezični element iz semantičkog polja 'hrana' i 'piće'. Budući da su hrana i piće neophodan dio čovjekove svakodnevice, svoje su mjesto pronašli i u frazeološkom fondu različitih jezika, pa tako i turskog i hrvatskog. Uz frazeme sa sastavnicom koja označuje konkretne kulinarske elemente ili hranu, usporedili smo i one koji opisuju čovjekov odnos prema hrani i piću. Kontrastivnom analizom utvrđeno je da većina turskih frazema i poslovica nema svoj ekvivalent u hrvatskom jeziku, a primjeri kod kojih je uočena značenjska podudarnost nemaju isti leksički sastav niti sintaktičku strukturu. Također je ustanovljeno da određeni broj turskih i hrvatskih frazema i poslovica ima dvije ili više varijanti što svjedoči o bogatstvu frazeologije i paremiologije tih jezika.Idioms with a component from the semantic field of food and drink in Turkish and Croatian language
The goal of this master's thesis is to analyze Turkish and Croatian idioms with a lexical element from the semantic field of food and drink as its component. Since food and drink are a crucial part of everyday life, they also find their place in the phraseological fund of different languages, including Turkish and Croatian. We compared the idioms with lexemes referring to concrete gastronomic elements and food, as well as the ones which describe a person’s relation towards food and drink. A contrastive analysis showed that the majority of Turkish idioms and proverbs do not have their equivalent in the Croatian language and that semantically compatible examples do not have the same lexical composition or syntactic structure. The analysis also suggests that a certain number of Turkish and Croatian idioms and proverbs have two or more variants, which proves the phraseological and paremiological richness of these languages
Razvoj publike popularne kulture u hrvatskim časopisima za mlade od 1958. do 1976. godine
Full text linkUsredotočujući se popularnu kulturu i mlade kao njezinu publiku te razmatrajući utjecaj tih dvaju pojava na globalni lik i intelektualnu povijest dvadesetoga stoljeća, u ovome radu analizom časopisa za mlade koji su izlazili u Hrvatskoj u dijalogu s postojećom literaturom i primarnim izvorima nastojim pridonijeti proučavanju jugoslavenske kulture koja se oblikuje u poslijeratnome razdoblju ne samo mapiranjem prethodno neistraženoga područja, već i ukazivanjem na izniman značaj polja popularnoga i figure omladine za širi problem jugoslavenskoga socijalističkog projekta. Analizom niza teorijskih refleksija o jugoslavenskoj popularnoj kulturi i mladima ukazujem na ključni simbolički značaj figure omladine kao nositelja jugoslavenskoga socijalističkog projekta te pokazujem kako se upravo ta figura izdvaja kao privilegirani prostor pregovaranja napetosti koje obilježavaju odnos jugoslavenske vizije socijalističke modernosti i razvoja polja popularnoga. Analizom primarne građe i razmatranjem promjena u širemu ekonomskome, političkome i društveno-kulturnome kontekstu izdvajam razdoblje između 1958. i 1976. godine kao konstitutivno za razvoj jugoslavenskoga polja popularnoga te pokazujem kako to polje – koje u tome razdoblju postaje ispresijecano nizom distinkcija koje radikalno mijenjaju lik „skupa općenito dostupnih artefakata“ i publici popularne kulture pridaju urbani, srednjoklasni i maskulini lik, dodatno obilježen nacionalnim distinkcijama – poprima više sličnosti sa svojim Zapadnim parnjakom nego što mu se obično priznaje, što nam dopušta da u novome svjetlu promotrimo problem „posebnosti“ jugoslavenske popularne kulture.Focusing on popular culture and youth as its audience and exploring the impact these two phenomena have left on the global character and intellectual history of the twentieth century, this paper enters into dialogue with the existing literature and primary sources in order to employ an analysis of youth magazines published in Croatia as a way of making a contribution to research focused on Yugoslav culture formed in the post-war period not only by mapping a previously unexplored area, but also by emphasizing the extraordinary significance of the field of the popular and the figure of youth for the broader issue of the Yugoslav socialist project. Through an analysis of a number of theoretical reflections on Yugoslav popular culture and youth, this paper underlines the key symbolic importance of the figure of youth as the subject expected to carry out the Yugoslav socialist project and it demonstrates how this figure came to function as the privileged space for the negotiation of the tensions that mark the relationship between the Yugoslav vision of modernity and the developing field of the popular. Through an analysis of the primary sources and a consideration of the changes that occur in the broader economic, political and socio-cultural context, this paper identifies the period between 1958 and 1976 as constitutive for the development of the Yugoslav field of the popular and demonstrates how this field – which, in this period, becomes marked by a number of distinctions that drastically alter the image of the “set of generally available artefacts” and produce a privileged audience of popular culture, which is urban, middle-class, masculine and additionally marked by national distinctions – becomes more similar to its Western counterpart than it is typically assumed, which allows us to examine the issue of the “exceptionality” of Yugoslav popular culture in a new light
Prevođenje kao posredovanje između jezika i kultura
No full textThis thesis comprises five annotated translations, accompanied by a discussion. Excerpts from three texts were translated from English into Croatian (Adam Kay’s This Is Going to Hurt Secret Diaries of a Junior Doctor, The Translation of Children's Literature: A Reader edited by Gillian Lathey, and Christopher Mellinger and Thomas Hanson's Quantitative Research Methods in Translation and Interpreting Studies), and two from Croatian into English (Antoni Cetnarowicz’s Narodni preporod u Istri (1860–1907) and Sven Popović’s Uvjerljivo drugi). The discussion focused on the notion of translation as linguistic and cultural mediation and its aim was threefold. Firstly, it provided an overview of the theoretical notion of translation as a form of mediation and reflected on both its historical and contemporary application in the field of translations studies. Secondly, it explored the analytical potential of the notion of translation as cultural mediation through an analysis of several texts belonging to different genres and requiring translation either from English into Croatian or vice versa. Finally, it examined the implications of this notion for the future of the translation profession by mapping the consequences of its application beyond the academic field of translation studies.Ovaj se diplomski rad sastoji od pet prijevoda koji su popraćeni prevoditeljskim bilješkama i raspravom. S engleskoga na hrvatski jezik prevedeni su ulomci triju tekstova (This Is Going to Hurt Secret Diaries of a Junior Doctor Adama Kaya, The Translation of Children's Literature: A Reader urednice Gillian Lathey i Quantitative Research Methods in Translation and Interpreting Studies Christophera Mellingera i Thomasa Hansona), dok su s hrvatskoga na engleski jezik prevedeni ulomci dvaju tekstova (Narodni preporod u Istri (1860–1907) Antonija Cetnarowicza i Uvjerljivo drugi Svena Popovića). Popratnom raspravom, koja je posvećena prevođenju kao posredovanju između jezika i kultura, nastoje se ostvariti tri cilja. Kao prvo, u sklopu rasprave iznosi se pregled teorijskoga poimanja prevođenja kao oblika posredovanja uz osvrt na povijesnu i suvremenu primjenu toga pojma u znanosti o prevođenju. Kao drugo, analizom prijevoda nekoliko tekstova, koji pripadaju različitim žanrovima i zahtijevaju prijevod s engleskoga na hrvatski jezik ili obrnuto, istražuje se analitički potencijal poimanja prevođenja kao kulturnoga posredovanja. Na koncu, mapiranjem posljedica primjene takva poimanja prevođenja izvan akademskoga konteksta znanosti o prevođenju istražuju se implikacije kulturnoga posredovanja za budućnost prevoditeljske struke
