The Wedding of Vlahinjic Alija represents a unique experiment in field collecting of oral traditional epic poetry. In order to determine whether and exactly how the text of a long epic would change as the best of oral poets told and retold it, Milman Parry first made a complete audio-recording of Avdo Međedović singing this long heroic narrative, and then some days later had the entire epic taken down again by dictation from the same singer.Both texts, the sung (6053 verses) and the dictated (5883 verses) are presented in this volume, showing precisely the effects both of recomposition and of the “intervention” of writing by an amanuensis. Osmanbeg Delibegović i Pavičević Luka is 13,326 verses long, a modern oral traditional epic of truly Homeric length. It is the longest complete and continuous oral epic text that has yet been recorded anywhere in the modern world.

Deutsche Juden und früher Zionismus am Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts. Das Buch behandelt die Verbindung zwischen der zionistischen Bewegung in Europa und den seit 1882 in Palästina gegründeten landwirtschaftlichen Siedlungen während der Zeit der so genannten Ersten Alija. Der Autor erzählt die Geschichte der Juden in Europa am Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts und beleuchtet die Entwicklung der "Zionsfreunde" ebenso wie die Entfaltung der Kolonien ab 1882, wobei die Kolonie Rischon le-Zion als Beispiel herausgegriffen wird. Die praktischen Bemühungen deutscher Juden um die Kolonien und die Versuche der dortigen Siedler, deutsche Juden für die Kolonisation zu begeistern, werden ebenso betrachtet wie die deutschsprachigen Kolonisationsvereine und ihre Exponenten. Ferner wird gezeigt, wie wichtig die frühen Zionsfreunde für die Entwicklung des politischen Zionismus waren. XXI,406 Seiten, gebunden (Reihe Jüdische Moderne; Band 2/Böhlau Verlag 2004).

Neuware -Die Jeckes-Forschung hat sie übersehen, die Architekturgeschichte hat ihre Bauten ignoriert, ihre Emigration stand unter dem Stigma des 'Pakts mit dem Teufel': die nach 1933 aus dem nationalsozialistischen Deutschen Reich emigrierten Juden, die im Rahmen der 'Kapitalisten-Alija' nach Palästina gelangten und dort in Mittelstandsdörfern angesiedelt wurden. Organisiert wurde ihre Emigration durch die Baugesellschaft RASSCO, die 1934 im Zuge des Haavara-Abkommens für den Siedlungstransfer gegründet wurde. Bis Kriegsausbruch wurden verschiedene Siedlungen realisiert, darunter Kfar Schmarjahu und die 'Siedlung der Württemberger' Schawej Zion, bis zur Staatsgründung rund zwei Dutzend. Ines Sonder und Joachim Trezib dokumentieren erstmals den gesamten Prozess der Übersiedlung von der politischen Dimension des Haavara-Transfers bis hin zu den Einzelschicksalen der Siedlerfamilien aus Deutschland. Sie eröffnen somit eine neue Perspektive auf die Fünfte Alija - durch ihr reiches, bislang unveröffentlichtes Bildmaterial auch in visueller Hinsicht. 560 pp. Deutsch

When Alija Osmanovic, a Bosnian war orphan who is the protagonist of Knife, goes in search of the identity of his murdered birth-parents, a sense of thwarted justice motivates him, and expresses itself as burning passion for revenge. This is summed up by the novel's title. The opening chapter describes the massacre of a Serbian village by Muslim Ustase on Christmas Day (January 7) of 1942. The sole survivor is a newborn male infant, spared at the last moment and given to a Muslim woman who lost her husband in the raid. The boy is named Alija, and is raised as a Muslim, and later comes to believe that his family was killed by Serbs. Twenty-one years later, Alija, now a medical student in Sarajevo, discovers that the newspapers are interested in his story. An article about him is published in a Sarajevo daily, and he begins receiving mail. Most of it is sympathetic but unhelpful, although he does receive an enigmatic letter which reads: You are certainly not what you are, nevertheless, you are what you are not. Alija seeks out Sikter Effendi, an eccentric and reclusive Muslim cleric, to help him interpret the enigma. Sikter Effendi, an irascible outsider, is, nevertheless, considered to be honest, because he has suffered at the hands of each regime: Ustase as well as Communist. He has responded by developing a fine sense of disgust for the human race, and he steeps himself in history, trying to untangle the threads of misfortune. But when Alija enters the Effendi s life, a transformation occurs. Sikter Effendi finds a spiritual heir. Through Sikter Effendi s mentorship, Alija discovers the truth: that his heritage is Serbian; that he was born not far away but in the neighboring village; and that his adoptive family was guilty of murdering his birth-family. A crisis of identity ensues. Each possible course of action open to him is bad. How is he to go on?
