Balcan Experess - THE HEROES, TRICKSTERS AND ANTAGONISTS OF THE BALKANS

Publication

Abstract

International conference on Balkan. The three notions in the conference title symbolically express our paramount intention: to think of the actors who have left their traces on the social and cultural development of the Balkan nations and ethnic groups and who have become-either in a basic way or in a certain sphere-creators of the present, future, or past.

In our concept, actors are defined broadly as not only individuals and social groups, but also situations, events, and artefacts. At the same time, we want to highlight the personalities for whom the Balkans and its population have been an inspiration and challenge.

On the topic were 25 papers. The conference was also an accompanying program.
