‎Pilgrimage in the Christian Balkan World. The Path to Touch the Sacred and Holy‎

‎, Brepols, 2023 Hardback, 300 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:25 col., Language: English. ISBN 9782503603087.‎

‎Summary The purpose of this volume is to explore, re-interpret and re-contextualise the various natures of practices performed by the Orthodox and Catholic pilgrims in Balkan countries in their devotional ?path to touch the sacred and holy? through the prism of pilgrimage contents, and their articulating, using, and handling strategies. Inter- and transdisciplinary perspectives constitute a strong point for exploring the essence of this collective practice of worship, which is theoretically and critically interpreted, and chronologically and diachronically analysed. Therefore, the various visions of the authors, formed on the basis of qualitative and critical analysis of primary (ethnographic and folkloric data from field interviews, archive documents, samples, etc.) and secondary sources, come to fill a gap in research on pilgrimage in southeast Europe, and especially on pilgrimage practices in Eastern Orthodoxy. Particularly, the ritual practices, sacred places in contemporary Balkan societies, religious folklore, divine intervention stories, miracle-working icons, relics and reliquaries as part of the structure of pilgrimage are discussed. The authors explore the context in which the Christian shrines in the Balkans are spaces where the ethnic and denominational patterns in pilgrimage are revealed openly on multiple levels; they delve into how the correlative effects between politics and religion are manifested. In this volume, which is the result of a project initiated by the Balkan History Association, the authors focus on theoretical analysis, stressing the historical and contemporary behaviour performed by the Christian pilgrims, and highlighting the fact that the motivations for going to the sacred places can vary, from seeking and obtaining Divine help to leisure, religious/faith tourism, etc. TABLE OF CONTENTS Approaching a Metaphor: Touching the Sacred and Holy.

To become aware of the religious imagination in subsistence villages of this kind in Europe involves engaging with a living reality which is often only seen at a distance through the prism of debates which remain very much alive in the religious history of the West. With a Greek village this is particularly the case: Greece has remained to many the mother of the western world whether as the first source of free rational thought or as the source of the Greek language in which the New Testament was first written. And for this reason western preoccupations with Greece have shaped perceptions of the Greek imagination in distinct ways. . . .Another great part of Romios�ne is the Byzantine legacy of the Orthodox Christian faith whose symbols and thought forms are embedded throughout the culture and Greeks may resist the ethos of the modern European state not only from individualism or scepticism but also from an Orthodox vision of society. . I have .tried to clarify how they relate to the Orthodox understanding of things so as to provide as complete a picture as is possible in the space available of the Greek religious imagination as I found it within the varied aspects of one community.

Kariye from Theodore Metochites to Thomas Whittemore: One monument, two monumental personalities.= Kariye: Bir anit, iki anitsal kisilik. Theodoros Metokhites'ten Thomas Whittemore'a. [Exhibition catalogue]. Texts by Holger A. Klein, Robert G. Ousterhout, Natalia Teteriatnikov, Dimiter Angelov, Jeffrey M. Featherstone. Displayed at Pera Museum, Kariye, from Theodoros Metokhites to Thomas Whittemore; One Monument, Two Monumental Personalities is comprised largely of objects and documents on loan from abroad, the exhibition narrates the story of Kraiye, one of the globally renowned monuments of Istanbul, as well as the extraordinary tales of two of its 'builders', who lived six centuries apart. At one end stands fellow townsman Theodoros Metokhites, Byzantine thinker, poet and politician, who shaped Kariye at the turn of the 14th century and adorned it with priceless mosaics and frescoes. On the other end is American renaissance man and archaeologist Thomas Whittemore, who passionately and meticulously restored this structure to its former grandeur in the 1940s, consequently bestowing it to the world of culture and art as a museum. In between lies the unconventional story of a structure shaped by the footprints of these remarkable men. The former church of the monastery of Christ of the Chora, better known today as the Kariye Camisi or Kariye Museum, is one of the most impressive Byzantine monuments to survive in the modern city of Istanbul. Founded probably as early as the sixth century, rebuilt by members of the imperial family in the late eleventh and early twelfth centuries, and splendidly restored by the Byzantine humanist, poet, and prime minister Theodore Metochites between 1316 and 1321, the church of the Chora Monastery is today considered one of the most outstanding examples of Late Byzantine art and architecture to survive. While the building itself was already known as the 'Mosaic Mosque' during the nineteenth century, the fame of the church's rich and complex interior decoration rests by and large on an extensive restoration campaign initiated by the American scholar and philanthropist Thomas Whittemore, founder and director of the Byzantine Institute of America from 1930 to his death in 1950. It was the aim of this exhibition, to explore the history of the "Kariye" through its representation over the centuries, and to pay homage to the two men who were responsible for its restoration and conservation in the fourteenth and twentieth centuries respectively: Theodore Metochites and Thomas Whittemore. The exhibition furthermore aimed to celebrate the work of those who have helped to preserve the architecture of the Kariye and its extraordinary cycle of mosaics and frescoes during the 1940s and 1950s.‎

‎Fine English Paperback. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 13 cm). In Turkish. 357 p. Cumhuriyet döneminde Istanbul Rum Patrikhanesi. Türkiye'nin Cumhuriyet tarihi boyunca tabu addettigi konularin basinda gelen azinliklar konusu, özellikle doksanli yillarla birlikte Türkiyeli arastirmacilarin gündeminde eskisine oranla daha agirlikli bir yere sahip oldu. Genelde hâkim konumda olan ve defansif/milliyetçi kaygilarla konuyu ele alip, ideolojik bir karsi durusu korumaya çalisanlarin yanisira, yeni kaynaklara, yeni yaklasimlara kapi açan arastirmalar da var. Elçin Macar'in bu çalismasi, sadece "netameli" sayilmis bir konu olarak Istanbul Rum Patrikhanesi'nin Cumhuriyet tarihi içindeki serüvenini dile getirmekle kalmiyor; konunun hiçbir derinligi olmadan, günlük iç ve dis siyasî çekismelerle sinirli olarak ele alinis tarzini terk etmeyi öneren bir derinligi de tasiyor. Macar, bu kitabiyla iki milliyetçilik arasinda sikismis, ötekilesmis, ideolojik açidan suistimal edilmis bir kurum olan Istanbul Rum Patrikhanesi'ne, hem teorik hem de metodolojik açidan bugüne kadar egemen olan anlayistan farkli bir yaklasim getirmeyi amaçliyor ve yitirilmis dinsel çesitliligin yakin tarihteki izlerini sürüyor.‎

ISBN: 960-87150-1-6.</p><p>The life of Manuel Panselenos the great Byzantine painter of Protaton church at Karyes Mount Athos is between myth and reality. He lived in 14th century a time of conflict where while the state's political and economic power declines letters and arts reach the highest point of glory yet drawing elements from the ancient Greek tradition. His work as it survives in Protaton is representative of the whole Paleologean era and of the so-called Macedonian "school" of hagiography whose center was the city of Thessalonike. The intellectual and artistic life of the city reaches that time at high levels whith a leading role in the entire Balkan area. The work of Panselenos has a rare quality in the performance of color organic body composition and psychological performance forms all of which add to the style of a drama inherent in realistic tones. The serene grandeur that emits as a whole in harmony with large proportions of the architectural and figured compositions with the robust figures of people vibrate a deep human passion which invites the viewer to sympathize with the feelings they emit. // Out of print final copies.
