Download or read book The MOUNTAIN WREATH written by Petar II Petrovich Njegosh and published by Stefan University Press. This book was released on 2008-12-08 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mountain Wreath is the anathema upon the Ottomanization of some small areas of Montenegro. Njegosh dedicates the Mountain Wreath to the dust of the Father of Serbia, Karageorge Petrovich. The Mountain Wreath is the epic about the glory of the Cross of the Serbs in Montenegro. In the 19th century, Alfred Lord Tennyson, (1809—1892), referred to Montenegrins as the mighty race of the mountaineers—the defenders of Christian faith. Njegosh, our great and beloved Prince-Bishop of Montenegro was a wise judge of his time, but Time itself is the ultimate judge. Today there are some small areas in Montenegro populated by the Slavic Muslims who love their Montenegro and build it in a brotherly unity together with other Montenegrins.
Download or read book Montenegro written by Kenneth Morrison and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2009-01-23 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In May 2006, following a closely and bitterly fought referendum, Montenegro finally regained the status of an independent nation that it had lost in 1918 - the most recent chapter in a highly turbulent history. The tiny Balkan republica??s declaration of independence from Serbia represented - barring the final resolution of Kosovoa??s status - the final stage in the disintegration of what was once Yugoslavia. But how did the Balkans forge this tiny republic? What sets it apart from the other dominant powers in the region? And what will be its future role on the worlda??s stage? 'Montenegro: A Modern History' charts the countrya??s contemporary history in accessible and comprehensive form. Kenneth Morrison explores the forces that have shaped the republic of Montenegro and questions where this will lead in the future, examining the fundamental issues of Montenegrin identity and statehood in a wider European as well as a Balkan context. This full and authoritative modern history is essential reading for everyone interested in the political and social dynamics of one of Europea??s youngest states.

Download or read book Rethinking Serbian Albanian Relations written by Aleksandar Pavlović and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-13 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Identifying and explaining common views, ideas and traditions, this volume challenges the concept of Serbian-Albanian hostility by reinvestigating recent and historical events in the region. The contributors put forward critically oriented initiatives and alternatives to shed light on a range of relations and perspectives. The central aim of the book is to ‘figure out’ the problematic relations between Serbs and Albanians – that is, to comprehend its origins and the actors involved, and to find ways to resolve and deal with this enmity. Treating the hostility as a construct of a long-running discourse about the Serbian or Albanian ‘Other’, scholars and intellectuals from Serbia, Kosovo and Albania examine the origins, channels, agents and mediums of this discourse from the 18th century to the present. Tracing the roots of the two ethnic groups' political divisions, contemporary practices and actions allows the contributors to reconsider mutually held negative perceptions and identify elements of a common, shared history. Examples of past and current cooperation are used to offer a critical analysis of all three societies. This interdisciplinary publication brings together historiographical, literary, sociological, political, anthropological and philosophical analyses and enquiries and will be of interest to researchers in the fields of sociology, politics, cultural studies, history or anthropology; and to academics working in Slavonic and East European studies.
Download or read book The First World War as a Caesura written by Christin Pschichholz and published by Duncker & Humblot. This book was released on 2020-12-02 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the phases of mobile warfare, the ethnically and religiously very heterogeneous population in the border regions of the multi-ethnic empires suffered in particular. Even if the real military situation in the course of the war hardly gave cause for concern, the image of disloyal ethnic and national minorities was widespread. This was particularly the case when ethnic groups lived on both sides of the border and social and political tensions had already established themselves along ethnic or religious lines of conflict before the war. Displacements, deportations and mass violence were the result. The genocide of the Armenian population is the most extreme example of this development. This anthology examines the border regions of the Ottoman, Russian and Habsburg empires during the First World War with regard to radical population policy and genocidal violence from a comparative perspective in order to draw a more precise picture of escalating and deescalating factors.
