In the central part of the article, the author contends that one way of approaching the topic, particularly if it is addressed as part of the United States polity, is through the lens of American Studies and, more specifically, through the work of R.W.B. Lewis and his idea of the American Adam. It is precisely the self-image of the United States as a country of youth that elides the significance of ageing from the disciplinary agenda. In addition, the author contends that the American socio-economic order marginalizes ageing as incompatible with its dynamics. In the onclusion, the author up dates the issue and shows how today’s pension schemes affect what as precisely designated as a time of retirement.","PeriodicalId":40415,"journal":{"name":"Anafora","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2019-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44754916","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Placed between academic history and the popular medium of television and film, an authored historical documentary presented by a celebrity historian transcends various cultural binaries and demands to be considered on its own terms as a particular way of approaching history. Having in mind its subversive potential as well as its popular appeal, the paper is particularly concerned with the construction of national identities in the historical documentaries of Simon Schama (A History of Britain) and Michael Wood (The Great British Story), in order to elucidate the advantages of their use in the history classroom.Since every classroom exists within a particular socio-historical context, this discussion of British identities is positioned in the English Department’s history class in Sarajevo, within the context of post-war Bosnia and Herzegovina as a reminder that we never teach in a historical vacuum. While comparing Schama’s and Wood’s approaches to history, a number of questions emerge concerning the role of the historian in the construction of particular historical meanings; the use of narrative to present historical information; and the relevance of the documentary’s visual language in conveying specific interpretations of history. The paper attempts to answer these questions and explain how critical engagement with a historical documentary can help students learn not only about the content of history, but also about the processes behind the meanings we consume, which, ultimately, reveal a great deal about us as consumers.","PeriodicalId":40415,"journal":{"name":"Anafora","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2019-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45004798","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Analizirana je egzegeza Magnificata iz Firentinskoga zbornika (Ashb. 1582) tako što je autor usporedno čitao tekst tog hrvatskog rukopisnog izlaganja iz Firence i odgovarajući tiskani tekst latinske Biblije (1489) iz privatne biblioteke Marka Marulića, na kojoj je on svojeručno bilježio rubne glose i minijaturne crteže. Utvrđeno je da autor egzegeze, rukopis potječe iz Splita, dijelom preuzima, prevodi i parafrazira komentare Nikole od Lyre koji su objavljeni usporedno – stih po stih – s latinskim tekstom Biblije koju je posjedovao i glosirao Marulić. Kako nijedan ini pisac iz Splita njegova doba nije posjedovao, a kamoli glosirao rečenu Bibliju, zaključeno je da je Marulić, uz brojne druge dokaze i indicije, i zbog te činjenice, autor spomenute egzegeze i Firentinskoga zbornika. Time je konačno verificirana dugo osporavana teza Carla Verdianija (1957) kojom je Maruliću atribuirano autorstvo tog zbornika. Tom je verifikacijom pogođen i čitav niz inih hrvatskih proznih rukopisa koje također valja pripisati autoru Marku Maruliću. S pogledom na skorašnju 500. obljetnicu smrti oca hrvatske književnosti (1524. – 2024.) autorovi nalazi stavljaju hrvatsku filologiju pred velike kritičko-izdavačke izazove.","PeriodicalId":40415,"journal":{"name":"Anafora","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2019-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43793518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Im vorliegenden Beitrag wird eine weitere ästhetische Kategorie der Gestalten identifiziert und untersucht, die des „Maschinenmenschen“. Es wird behauptet, dass Geistes- und Maschinenmenschen in Bernhards Drama Der Ignorant und der Wahnsinnige in Abhängigkeitsbeziehungen zueinander stehen. Obwohl man Geistes- und Maschinenmenschen als Gegensätze betrachten kann, wird die Analyse beweisen, dass sie beide Teile desselben Systems sind. Bernhards Geistesmensch, der Doktor und Maschinenmensch, die Opernsängerin (die sogar buchstäblich als eine „Koloraturmaschine“ bezeichnet wird) entsprechen dem Konzept von Wunschmaschinen von Gilles Deleuze und Felix Guattari in Anti-Ödipus.

Bernhards Doktor ist als entmenschlicht und als Teil der Prozesse und des Systems zu betrachten, weil er das Biologische überwinden möchte. Bernhards Maschinenmensch ist gleichzeitig die Verkörperung des Künstlichen; ihr Körper ist eine Maschine, deren Aufgabe ist, jeden Abend ihre perfekte Stimme zu produzieren, um der (Kultur-)Industrie ihre Ware immer wieder anbieten zu können.

Psalmist u psalmu proživljava unutarnju dramu sumnje i učvršćivanja u vjeri, a dramatska struktura teksta povezana je s etapama njegove religiozne krize. Psalmist od pouzdane orijentacije prema Bogu zapada u dezorijentaciju te se na koncu reorijentira. Svaka od tih faza povezana je s promjenom dramaturške situacije i vremenske vizure, a teologija i naracija Psalma 73 nerazdruživo su povezane i nužno osvjetljavaju jedna drugu. Psalmist na početku psalma ispada iz biblijskog pogleda na uređenost svijeta, zapada u ponor sumnji koje doživljava kao poživotinjenje te se na koncu vraća na vjerom nadahnutu poziciju s koje je i krenuo. Psalmist je u tekstu otkrio svoju ispovijed i prorokovanje za druge, da bi slušateljima ili čitateljima bio uzor i vodič na duhovnom putovanju – da bi kao pojedinac pomogao uspostaviti vjeru u zajednici.","PeriodicalId":40415,"journal":{"name":"Anafora","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2019-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44343763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The text operates with the dichotomy of inside/outside, recognizable in such different manifestations as the son’s perception of the world, confinement and escape, and others. These dualities reflect on the novel’s most prominent issue, which is trauma as experienced by Ma and Jack, respectively. Its investigation comprises the core of the paper, which entails a careful analysis of the peculiar bond between mother and son, breastfeeding a five-year-old in confinement, and the role language plays in the novel. The analysis of these issues will ultimately shed light on existence itself as particularized in the two characters. In the novel, this existence comes to the fore through the focus on the fundamental human values that stand at the core of their personas and their connection.","PeriodicalId":40415,"journal":{"name":"Anafora","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.29162/anafora.v6i2.5","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69709327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper may be divided into three parts, showing the different stages of dealing with the protagonist Scotty’s death that his parents go through. The first part addresses denial, grief, and different ways in which people react to the death of a loved one. The second part elaborates on miscommunication as a leitmotif in Carver’s stories and shows the complete breakage of communication between the characters; namely between Scotty’s parents and the doctor, the baker, and the nurses, to name a few. The final part delves into the act of eating as a small, good gesture of kindness that brings people together and calms them down when a person dies. The end asserts that we constantly attempt to understand one another and, unfortunately, often fail to do so because of the unreliable and multi-faceted nature of language.","PeriodicalId":40415,"journal":{"name":"Anafora","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69708872","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Evanđelje je samo po sebi književna vrsta, a njegov autor rabi stilske figure kao što je na primjer metafora. Uloga evanđelista kao autora također je važna. Pomoću povijesno-kritičke metode otkriva se u odlomku Mk 2,18−20 izuzetnost metafore zaručnik, zaručnica i svadba (odnosno svatovi). Tri metafore stvaraju logičnu cjelinu. Pomoću te stilske figure čitatelj može prihvatiti Isusovu pouku u kojoj skriva svoj identitet. Polemika je samo izraz ili pak razlog za korištenje metafore koja je tipičnim izrazom židovskog poučavanja. Korištena metafora također postaje „mostom“ koji spaja prošlost sa sadašnjošću i time nadopunjava ograničenost povijesno-kritičke metode. Isus nije samo izrekao istraživane retke u doslovnom smislu.
