Download or read book Zagreb written by Celia Hawkesworth and published by Signal Books. This book was released on 2007 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Situated at the foot of a range of hills on the edge of the great Pannonian Plain, for most of its history Zagreb has been a small town to which things happened. Administered from 1102 by Hungary and later absorbed into the Habsburg Monarchy, Zagreb was under threat from the advancing Ottomans until the late sixteenth century. From the mid-nineteenth century onwards Zagreb developed steadily into a modern city, reflecting all the important trends in Central European culture, architecture and fashion. Its pretty centre is laid out according to a plan incorporating trees and public gardens, forming a "green horseshoe" lined with imposing buildings. Celia Hawkesworth explores this central core and the atmospheric old town on a rise above it, finding a mix of old and modern building, a rich cultural tradition and a vibrant outdoor cafe life, in which many of the individuals who have contributed to creating the city's unique inner life are commemorated in statues in the streets and squares.
Book Synopsis The History of Croatia and Slovenia by : Christopher Deliso
Download or read book The History of Croatia and Slovenia written by Christopher Deliso and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2020-11-06 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new addition to Greenwood's Histories of the Modern Nations series provides a comprehensive introduction to the intertwined histories of Croatia and Slovenia, two Balkan nations and former members of the Yugoslav Federation. The recent histories of Croatia and Slovenia have been relatively stable, as both countries have merged successfully into modern Europe. But how did these countries arrive at such a place? The History of Croatia and Slovenia provides factual overviews of these countries' political systems, geographical details, significant individuals, and more. The volume opens with the prehistoric and ancient roots of these states, though this history predates their modern ethnic and linguistic identities as we know them. Chapters cover the Roman period, followed by barbarian waves and the countries' subsequent absorption into the Venetian, Hungarian, and Holy Roman Empires. The modern period of national awakening in the nineteenth century, when the ethno-genesis of modern Croatia and Slovenia began, is covered in great detail. The volume additionally covers subsequent turbulent events such as WWI, WWII, the Holocaust, Communist Yugoslavia, and its civil wars of the 1990s, through the events of 2019. Written in approachable yet scholarly language, this volume is ideal for high school and university students, as well as any reader interested in Balkan or European history.
Book Synopsis The Racial Idea in the Independent State of Croatia by : Nevenko Bartulin
Download or read book The Racial Idea in the Independent State of Croatia written by Nevenko Bartulin and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-11-14 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the intellectual origins of race theory in the pro-Nazi Ustasha Independent State of Croatia, 1941-1945. This race theory was not, as historians of the Ustasha state have hitherto argued, a product of a practical accommodation to the dominant Nazi racial ideology. Contrary to the general historiographical view, which has either downplayed or ignored the important place of race, not only in Ustasha ideology and politics, but more generally in modern Croatian and Yugoslav nationalism, this work stresses the significant role that theories of ethnolinguistic origin and racial anthropology played in defining Croat nationhood from the mid-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century. Upon the basis of older ideological and cultural traditions, the Ustasha state constructed an ideal Aryan racial type.
Book Synopsis Amoral Communities by : Mila Dragojević
Download or read book Amoral Communities written by Mila Dragojević and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Amoral Communities, Mila Dragojević examines how conditions conducive to atrocities against civilians are created during wartime in some communities. She identifies the exclusion of moderates and the production of borders as the main processes. In these places, political and ethnic identities become linked and targeted violence against civilians becomes both tolerated and justified by the respective authorities as a necessary sacrifice for a greater political goal. Dragojević augments the literature on genocide and civil wars by demonstrating how violence can be used as a political strategy, and how communities, as well as individuals, remember episodes of violence against civilians. The communities on which she focuses are Croatia in the 1990s and Uganda and Guatemala in the 1980s. In each case Dragojević considers how people who have lived peacefully as neighbors for many years are suddenly transformed into enemies, yet intracommunal violence is not ubiquitous throughout the conflict zone; rather, it is specific to particular regions or villages within those zones. Reporting on the varying wartime experiences of individuals, she adds depth, emotion, and objectivity to the historical and socioeconomic conditions that shaped each conflict. Furthermore, as Amoral Communities describes, the exclusion of moderates and the production of borders limit individuals' freedom to express their views, work to prevent the possible defection of members of an in-group, and facilitate identification of individuals who are purportedly a threat. Even before mass killings begin, Dragojević finds, these and similar changes will have transformed particular villages or regions into amoral communities, places where the definition of crime changes and violence is justified as a form of self-defense by perpetrators.
Book Synopsis THE CROATIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH Was, Is, And Shall Be by : Croatian Archbishop Alexander
Download or read book THE CROATIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH Was, Is, And Shall Be written by Croatian Archbishop Alexander and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-12-03 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over a century, facts have been silenced, documents and historical monuments falsified, and whole parts of history fabricated, with the aim of creating a glorious Serbo-Yugoslav history, and to demean Croatian history and freedom of thought. The falsifiers made every effort to break the unity of the Croatian people, and thus imposed a model whereby all Orthodox Christians were Serbs. The deepest hidden secret in modern-day democratic Croatia is that the Orthodox faith and Orthodox Church of the Croatian people did indeed exist. This book disproves the accumulated lies, points to facts and historical truth and allows for a better understanding of the historic course of the restoration of the Croatian Orthodox Church. On December 1, 2013, Patriarch Nicolas signed a Tomos granting autocephaly to the Croatian Orthodox Church. This book provides readers with answers to why the Croatian Orthodox Church is unlawfully being prevented registration in the Republic of Croatia.
