Wir laden Sie herzlich zu unserer diesjährigen Jahresvorlesung ein.
Festvortrag von Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. Diana Mishkova (Director of Centre for Advance Study Sofia)
Titel: "How the balkans came to be: A look from the inside"
The lecture turns around the western, quasi-orientalist perspective on the Balkans by offering glimpses into the intellectual history of the Balkan idea as it evolved within the region itself. It attends to the Balkans as ‘self-designation’ and a project of regional identity formation and undertakes to restore the agency of the regional scholarly and political elites for the understanding of ‘the Balkans’ and the images it conveys. It thus seeks to contribute to the ongoing debates related to the creation of space and historical regions, which feed into rethinking the premises of the ‘new area studies’, and invites reflection on the way we, at the present time, conceptualize and evaluate regionalism as politics and transnationalism as a scholarly project.
