Abstract:

This paper is partial outcome of the research of generically heterogeneous corpus of texts written about Bosnia-Hercegovina during the Austro-Hungarian rule (1878–1918) in non-German (which means less hegemonic) languages – so in Hungarian and Czech. This study examines the heterotopia of the cemetery, more precisely, the description and view of the Muslim cemeteries in Sarajevo within the mentioned corpus. As Michel Foucault pointed out, the heteropia is constructed by culture, these descriptions are thematizing not only spacial experience but also the meeting with the other culture. These hetero-images can be found in the ethnographic work of Adolf Strausz and the travelogue Růžena Svobodová, which are compared with the similar descriptions of the domestic authors, so the self-images in the travel writings of Ivo Andrić and one article of Husein Tahmiščić.

Keywords: Bosnia and Herzegovina, South-Slavic literature, imagology, heterotopia

Our profile

Partitúra is a Hungarian literary journal published in Slovakia twice a year. The first edition was issued in 2006. From 2007 to 2014 its publishers were the Faculty of Central European Studies at The Constantine the Philosopher University in Nitra in cooperation with Sambucus Literary Society. Since 2014 the Faculty of Central European Studies at the CPU in Nitra became the sole publisher.

The journal releases peer-reviewed scientific articles, literary studies and art reviews of both Hungarian as well as world literature. It is also a forum for essays on several other arts and intercultural relations. Furthermore, special attention is devoted to the Central European literature and literary studies; the magazine not only publishes the reviews of such studies, but also provides the arena for reflections about them. The journal aims to give an account of the contemporary Hungarian literature of the Hungarian minorities as well as to serve as a cluster for discourses.

As for the structure of the paper, it is usually divided into three main sections. The first part generally deals with the translation of an important foreign abstract literary study. It is followed by the heading of Scientific Studies and the Columns of Critical Analysis. Partitúra regularly publishes thematic abstracts by authors, genres, as well as a literary and artistic phenomenon in focus.
