    A feminist perspective on family in recent ethnic American literature

    No full text
    The last quarter of the 20th century and onwards has been marked by a massive immigration wave to the United States. Almost half of that immigrant population is comprised of women, which is the reason why the field of women’s immigration history in the U.S. plays a particularly important role. Accordingly, the increased attention to women has also given rise to women’s fiction writing dealing with the issues of immigration, family and gender roles. Because of the changes in U.S. politics which lead to the growing immigration of East and South Asians, Latin Americans and the immigrants from the Caribbean, the focus was now on the themes of transnationalism and gendered assimilation. Immigrant women played the most important role in establishing and maintaining immigrant communities, as well as passing on the culture. The United States served as a land of opportunity for most immigrant women who could profit from the second wave of feminism evolving since the last quarter of the 20th century, and which provided women with more rights and opportunities than in their homelands. Aside from scholarly interpretations, female ethnic novelists are crucial for understanding the situation of these women and their experiences. These narratives show greater fluidity of identity and hybridity within the second-generation of immigrants. Focused primarily on the matrilineal lines in the families, the authors write about the storytelling as a means of transferring tradition to children and keeping the history alive despite immigration, about the newly found freedom to express themselves (writing in particular) and the end of violent traditions and practices on women’s bodies, as well as about access to quality education. In order to analyze the intersection of these issues, the works of following writers have been used: Chinese American authors Maxine Hong Kingston (The Woman Warrior: Memoirs of a Girlhood Among Ghosts) and Fae Myenne Ng (Bone), as well as the Mexican American author Sandra Cisneros (The House on Mango Street), Cuban American author Cristina Garcia (Dreaming in Cuban), Haitian American author Edwidge Danticat (Breath, Eyes, Memory), and Syrian American author Mohja Kahf (The Girl in the Tangerine Scarf)

    Ovaj rad je zamišljen kao kratak pregled utjecaja mitološkog sadržaja i same mitologije na rad Carla Gustava Junga. Cilj ovoga rada je predstaviti Jungov psihoanalitički pristup kroz njegove pojmove za koje je smatrao da su neotuđivi od mitologije, te prikazati kako se te hipoteze razvijaju kod njegovih nasljednika. Kroz prvo poglavlje „Mitologija i njena primjena u psihoanalizi“ autor želi prikazati kako su antički, kozmološki i junački mitovi kroz povijest prešli put od religijskog sadržaja do materijala koje u znanstvenim radovima koriste filozofi i antropolozi te kako je u konačnici utjecala na formiranje psihoanalitičke misli u ranim radovima Sigmunda Freuda. U poglavlju „Imaginarno i fantazija“ usmjerit ćemo se na definiranje imaginarne i simboličke misli te važnosti simbola za koje Jung tvrdi da potiču promjenu čovjekove psihičke slike, to jest, libida. Zatim kroz poglavlje „Arhetip i kolektivno nesvjesno“ prolazimo kroz osnovne pojmove jungovske psihologije koje su usko vezane uz područje mita; dok se u poglavlju „Mitološki stadiji evolucije svijesti“ osvrćemo na radove jungovaca Ericha Neumanna i Josepha Campbella i prikazujemo kako je mitologija utjecala na njihov rad u psihoanalizi

    Rad donosi studiju slučaja propale tvornice konca i pamučnog prediva Dalmatinka u Sinju, s fokusom na radničku kulturu kao oslonac društvenog sjećanja unutar lokalne zajednice. Počevši s etnografijom propadanja tvornice, preko koncepta radništva u kontekstu socijalističke Jugoslavije, predstavljaju se dvije međusobno povezane tematske jedinice, kroz koje se detektiraju ključni elementi za konstrukciju sjećanja. Na temelju kazivanja nekadašnjih radnica istražuje se relacija radnik-tvornica kroz međuodnos koncepata životne povijesti i osobne povijesti. U drugom dijelu rad se koncentrira na suvremene interpretacije nematerijalnog naslijeđa Dalmatinke. Analiza djelovanja izložbeno-edukativnog projekta usmjerenog na revalorizaciju njezina doprinosa razvoju grada u infrastrukturnom, ekonomskom i kulturološkom pogledu, pokazuje čvrstu ukotvljenost Dalmatinke u društvenom sjećanju. Isto tako, na općenitijoj razini upućuje na posljedice procesā tranzicije i deindustrijalizacije na demografsku i ekonomsku strukturu stanovništva Sinja.The paper gives account of a case study on the thread and cotton yarn factory Dalmatinka in Sinj, focusing on working culture as the backbone of collective memory within the local community. Starting with ethnography of the factory collapse, through to elaboration of the concept of labor in the context of socialist Yugoslavia, two interrelated thematic units are presented that examine the key elements for the construction of the memory. Based on their statements, the relationship between workers and the factory as a wholesome concept is studied. Following these conclusions, the paper concentrates on contemporary interpretations of Dalmatinka’s immaterial heritage. An analysis of an interdisciplinary project, aimed at reevaluating the factory’s contribution to town’s infrastructural, economic and cultural development, demonstrates the solidification of Dalmatinka in collective memory. Likewise, on a more general level, it indicates the aftermath of the processes of political transition and deindustrialization on demographic and economic structure of population of Sinj

    Profana barokna arhitektura osamnaestog stoljeća u Hrvatskom zagorju obilježena je velikim brojem različitih rješenja koja prezentiraju tadašnje društveno-političke prilike. Izvangradska je arhitektura višefunkcionalna; obuhvaća ladanjsku, stambenu i gospodarsku te reprezentativnu funkciju i stoga ima važnu ulogu u prezentaciji statusa, financijske i društvene moći obitelji. Obitelj Patačić upravo u drugoj polovici 17. i tijekom 18. stoljeća doživljava statusni procvat, što je dakako vidljivo i u zdanjima koja naručuju. U fokusu ovog rada je nekolicina primjera izvangradske arhitekture obitelji Patačić: središnji posjed obitelji s višekrilnim dvorcem Zajezda, dvorac Martijanec, zatim jednokrilni dvorci Vrbovec i Krkanec u kojem je osnovano društvo „Neomedicinskih doktora od Pinte“ te kurija Trnovec. Dvorci i kurije obitelji Patačić pokazuju i meñuodnose domaćeg plemstva, njihovu ulogu na Habsburškom dvoru, kao i položaj hrvatskih zemalja u Habsburškoj monarhiji. Izabrani primjeri komparirani su s drugim primjerima plemićke izvangradske arhitekture sjeverozapadne Hrvatske, kao i sa zdanjima grañenim na području Štajerske i Kranjske. Takoñer, važnost dokumentiranja profane arhitekture kao sastavnog dijela simboličnog kapitala obitelji u ovom je radu obrañena analizom ilustriranog rukopisa o povijesti obitelji Patačić znanog i kao Status Familiae Patachich. Analizom izabranih primjera te rukopisa refediniran je položaj ovih grañevina u pregledu barokne profane arhitekture Hrvatskog zagorja, a predloženi su i neki mogući izvori primjenjenih arhitektonskih rješenja.Baroque profane architecture in Hrvatsko zagorje during the 18th century is marked by a wide variation of different project solutions which represent, to some extent, social and political circumstances of the period. Architecture situated in country estates is multifunctional; it is used for liesure, living, production, farming, but also as a representative mean for the family. Patačić family during the late 17th and throught the 18th century became one of the most powerful families among Croatian nobility. Their class, financial and social power is also visible in their buildings. Focal points of this research are several examples of their castles: main family estate Zajezda, castle Martijanec, Vrbovec, Krkanec and Trnovec. Castles of family Patačić also represent relations among Croatian nobility considering marital and economical exchange. Family Patačić had great significance on Habsburgs court as their consulars which ensured them to be in touch with central european architectural trends. Chosen examples in this research are compared with other relevant examples of noble architecture, both in northwest Croatia and all around the former Habsburg Monarchy. Also, part of this thesis is analysis of an iluminated manuscript, Status Familiae Patachich, written by Aleksandar Patačić which represents important document that shows perception of family realestates as a part of their inheritance. Analysis of chosen examples and the manuscript redefined importance of these castles in Croatian baroque arhitecture and within this thesis also proposes possible sources used within the architectural projects

    U radu se raspravlja o glagolima kretanja prefigiranim prefiksom po-. Slijedeći kognitivnolingvističke teorijske postavke te uzimajući u obzir rezultate pretraživanja korpusa, pokušava se dokazati da su svi glagoli kretanja prefigirani prefiksom po- međusobno povezani te da svi na neki način elaboriraju predodžbenu shemu PUTA i POVRŠINE. Ta predodžbena shema zajednička je prefiksu po- i prijedlogu po. Pozornost se posvećuje različitim tipovima glagola kretanja, posebice glagolima usmjerena kretnja koji prefigirani prefiksom po- zadobivaju ingresivno značenje.The paper discusses Croatian verbs of motion prefixed by po- within the theoretical framework of cognitive linguistics and by taking into account corpus research findings. The paper tries to prove that all verbs of motion prefixed by this prefix are interlinked and that they all, in one way or another, elaborate the complex image schema of path and surface. This image schema is common both to the prefix po- and the preposition po. Attention is given to different types of verbs of motion, especially to directed verbs of motion as they, when prefixed by po-, acquire an ingressive meaning

    Was blieb vom Doppeladler? Eine Diskussion über Kontinuitäten und Diskontinuitäten

    No full text
    Služeći se komparativnohistorijskim metodama, u raspravi je obuhvaćen širok spektar strukturalnih kontinuiteta (i diskontinuiteta) u odnosu na 1918. godinu kao godinu raspada Habsburške Monarhije. Pritom koncept dugog trajanja pruža okvir unutar kojeg do izražaja mogu doći različita dugoročna gospodarska povezivanja, društveni dodiri te kulturni ili idejni transferi od političke do svakodnevne razine. Iz takve perspektive 1918. godina ne predstavlja tek lom u povijesti, niti isključivo godinu posebnog značenja u smislu globalne i regionalne transformacije koja je „nulta točka“. Ovaj tekst nastoji tematizirati nekoliko izdvojenih problemskih kompleksa povezanih s gospodarskim, društvenim, intelektualnim i kulturno-političkim transformacijama, pritom ukazujući prije svega na kontinuitete koji se na različite načine, više ili manje jasno, manifestiraju. Trebao bi ponuditi poticaj za daljnje, nužno potrebne serije dugoročnih, kvantitativnih i metodološki raznoliko postavljenih studija-slučaja koje bi mogle potaknuti etabliranje i razvoj hrvatskih „habsburških studija“.Alluding to the famous title of Ernst Trost’s study Das blieb vom Doppeladler (1966), this article opens the question of the Habsburg legacy in Croatia after the „turning point” of 1918. The dissolution of the Habsburg Monarchy and the creation of the Yugoslav state, temporarily stopped the several centuries long connections between the Croatian lands and other Central European cities and states. There was a new intensification of an economic, social, cultural and political interplay, during the early interwar years, and particularly after the Great Depression, which served to distinguish the continuities from the pre-1918 era. Various elements „survived” the collapse of 1918 and had manifested in various ways in Croatia during the 1920s and 1930s. The longue durée of the Danube Monarchy in Croatia is analysed through the hidden, polymorphous mentalities, ideological constellations, various cultural transfers, as well as by finding the places of memory regarding „old Austria” and the macroeconomic Central European structures. The paper reviews various examples of Habsburg heritage research in the Croatian scholarly works and finally promotes some specific topics and methodologies which might help re-orient „Habsburg studies” in Croatia.Aufbauend auf den Titel Das blieb vom Doppeladler (1966) von Ernst Trost setzt sich diese Diskussion mit der Frage des Vermächtnisses der Habsburgermonarchie in Kroatien nach den „Bruchjahr“ von 1918 auseinander. Mit dem Zerfall der Habsburgermonarchie und Erstellung eines jugoslawischen Staates wurden die jahrhundertlangen Beziehungen zwischen den kroatischen Ländern und anderen mitteleuropäischen Städten und Ländern nur auf kurze Zeit unterbrochen. Schon in der frühen Zwischenkriegszeit und besonders nach der Wirtschaftskriese sorgten ökonomische, soziale, kulturelle und auch politische Faktoren für neue Intensivierungen der Verhältnisse, wobei Kontinuitäten zur Zeit vor 1918 mehr und mehr deutlich werden. Vielfältige politische, kulturelle, gesellschaftliche oder ökonomische Elemente „überlebten“ den Bruch von 1918 und manifestierten sich in verschiedensten Formen in Kroatien der 1920er und 1930er Jahre wieder. Die lange Dauer der Donaumonarchie in Kroatien bzw. Zagreb nach 1918 wird in dieser Diskussion durch die verborgenen polymorphen Mentalitäten, ideologischen Konstellationen, diversen Kulturtransfers, den Erinnerungsorten des „alten Österreichs“ sowie den makroökonomischen mitteleuropäischen Strukturen untersucht. Die Diskussion setzt sich dabei kritisch mit den verschiedenen Ansätzen in der wissenschaftlichen Literatur zu diesen Thema auseinander und versucht eine facettenreiche Interpretation des Habsburgererbens hervorzubringen. Letztendlich werden auch konkrete Themen und methodologische Forschungsansätze vorgeschlagen, unter denen auch die „Habsburg Studies“ in Kroatien neuorientiert werden könnte

    No full text
    Cilj provedenog istraţivanja bio je ispitati kako se neke socioseksualne motivacije i ponašanja mijenjaju u funkciji menstrualnog ciklusa, odnosno, kako se mijenjaju (ne)zadovoljstvo tijelom i osjećaj vlastite privlačnosti, seksualna želja i želja za izlaženjem te ponašanja kao što su flert i uljepšavanje. Ispitanice su davale samoprocjene u tri faze menstrualnog ciklusa: menstrualnoj, kasnoj folikularnoj i lutealnoj. U skladu s hipotezom ovulatornog pomaka, pretpostavljali smo kako će rezultati u nezadovoljstvu tijelom biti niži, a u ostalim varijablama viši u kasnoj folikularnoj fazi nego u menstrualnoj i folikularnoj fazi. Konačan broj ispitanica bio je 62 i na njihovim rezultatima provedena je bila analiza varijance za ponovljena mjerenja. Promjene u nezadovoljstvu tijelom, seksualnoj želji i flertu nisu se pokazale statistički značajnima. Promjena u osjećaju vlastite privlačnosti bila je značajna i prema očekivanjima; ispitanice su se statistički značajno privlačnijima osjećale u kasnoj folikularnoj nego u menstrualnoj i lutealnoj fazi ciklusa. Razlika između menstrualne i kasne folikularne faze postojala je i kod želje za izlaskom i kod uljepšavanja, a rezultati na skalama bili su viši u kasnoj folikularnoj fazi. Međutim, u lutealnoj fazi nije bilo razlike u želji za izlaskom u odnosu na kasnu folikularnu fazu, a uljepšavanje u lutealnoj fazi nije se statistički značajno razlikovalo niti od menstrualne niti od kasne folikularne faze.The aim of this study was to investigate how some sociosexual motivations and behaviors change as a function of the menstrual cycle, that is, to examine the change in body dissatisfaction and subjective attractiveness, sexual desire and the desire to go out, as well as in some behaviors such as flirting and beautification. The participants gave their answers in three phases of menstrual cycle: menstrual, luteal and late follicular. The final number of the participants was 62 and a repeated measure ANOVA was conducted. The difference in body dissatisfaction, sexual desire and in flirting did not reach statistical significance. The change in subjective attractiveness across the menstrual cycle was significant, and in accordance with the ovulatory shift hypothesis: the participants felt more attractive in the late follicular than in the menstrual and the luteal phase. There was also a significant difference between the menstrual and the late follicular phase in the desire to go out and in beautification. The results on these scales were higher in the late follicular than in the menstrual phase. However, there was no difference in the desire to go out between the late follicular and the luteal phase. Also, beautification in the luteal phase was not statistically different than beautification in either of the remaining phases

    Rad identificira bioarheološke podatke koji imaju potencijal biti korišteni za prepoznavanje markera nasilja kod drevnih populacija, kroz pregled modernih kliničkih studija fokusiranih na osteološka istraživanja. Arheološke studije nasilja često su androcentrične, te su ovim putem ispitane i potencijalne uloge žena u nasilju, dok je nasilje u radu problematizirano kao biološki i kulturološki fenomen. Percepcija i projekcija rodnih uloga u prapovijesnim društvima promotrena je u kontekstu istraživanja željeznog doga Europe, s posebnim osvrtom na ukop u Vixu te problematiku roda u neolitiku

    Human Teeth and Skull Symbolism

    No full text
    Ovaj je rad osmišljen kao pregled simbolizma zuba i lubanje kroz mnoge kulture današnjice, ali i kroz tradicije prošlosti. U njemu je prikazano kako su različiti religiozni i spiritualni razlozi, rituali i praznovjerja potaknuli pridavanje simboličkih značenja mnogim predmetima, naročito zubima i lubanjama. Zubima se simbolika najčešće pripisivala njihovom modifikacijom, dok lubanja sama po sebi djeluje zastrašujuće simbolizirajući smrt i prolaznost života. Međutim, njihova se značenja mijenjaju kroz povijesna razdoblja i od kulture do kulture, a ona najprominentnija ostaju i do danas.This master's thesis is a review of the symbolism of human teeth and skulls, prevalent in many past traditions, as well as various modern cultures. The research shows how different religious and spiritual influences, along with rituals and superstition, inspired the attachment of symbolic meanings to objects such as teeth and skulls. Whilst teeth attained their symbolic meaning predominantly through their modification, skulls were already deemed sufficiently frightening due to their relation with death and passage of life. Nevertheless, the symbolic meanings changed throughout history, and differencing from culture to culture, whilst those most prominent remain to this day

    U radu se prikazuje nastanak, razvoj, struktura i organizacija Federacije Damanhur, različito definirane (ekološka zajednica, pokret new age ili kult), te život i uloga njezinog osnivača Falcoa. Rad se temelji na sadržajnoj analizi dostupne građe o Federaciji i istraživačkih radova, te na građi prikupljenoj putem polustrukturiranih intervjua s pripadnicima različitih uloga u hijerarhiji građanstva Federacije Damanhur. Utvrđena je diskrepancija u prikazu strukture zajednice, života pripadnika, hijerarhije te odnosa s Falcoom između normativnog, kako ga definiraju službeni izvori Federacije i pojedini istraživački radovi, te izvedbenog, o čemu govore sadašnji i bivši pripadnici Federacije. Na temelju analize tih razlika zaključeno je u kojem smjeru se Federacija kreće od smrti Falcoa te su otvorena nova istraživačka pitanja.This master thesis presents demonstrates an overview of the occurrence, development, structure and organization of the Federation of Damanhur – defined as an ecological community, a new age community or a cult – as well as the life and the role of its’ founder Falco. The thesis is based on content analysis of available materials about the Federation and research studies, and on materials collected by semi-structured interviews with members who hold different roles in the citizen hierarchy of the Federation of Damanhur. A discrepancy was determined between the normative, as defined by official sources of the Federation and certain research studies, and the performed of which the informants testify (former and present members of the Federation). On account of that discrepancy it was concluded in which direction the Federation is going after Falcos’ death and new research questions have arisen
