U članku je na temelju arhivske građe, tiska i relevantne literature analiziran
proces smjene brodskog gradonačelnika Slavka Vrgoča, koji je trajao kroz čitavu
1942. godinu, a u sukobe su bili ...uključeni najvažniji akteri tadašnje brodske
političke, društvene i ekonomske scene. Uz često osobne animozitete i borbu za
vlast, u spomenutim su događajima vidljivi i elementi sukoba nove, ustaške,
elite u nastajanju, i stare predratne elite koja kroz svoju ekonomsku moć i
međusobnu umreženost nastoji očuvati ili čak proširiti svoj utjecaj.
On the basis of unpublished archival materials, publications of the time
and relevant literature, this paper endeavours to reconstruct and analyse the process of the dismissal of Slavko Vrgoč, the mayor of Brod,
as well as the appointment of a new city government. As there were no elections at any level, the city governments were dependent on the appointments of higher authorities. Although they were formally supposed
to be formed on the basis of the arrangement of various actors (the county or Velika župa, the Ustasha movement, Croatian Labour Union), in reality they had to rely on informal relations and influences of individuals or groups. After the establishment of the new government in 1941, Vrgoč became the mayor of Brod and Ustasha quartermaster, and thus
the considerable prerogatives of civil and Ustasha government branches were combined in one person. Even at that time several groups of the same ideological spectrum, which aspired to key positions, appeared; the
reactions to the aforementioned conflicts became apparent later when some of the players turned out to be Vrgoč’s opponents. Vrgoč’s dismissal from the position of Ustasha quartermaster in Summer 1942 and from the mayorship in December of the same year, were the result of month-long political conflicts between a few stakeholders and individuals from various institutions or organizations that are an excellent example of the heterogeneity of the people from lower classes who actively or passively supported the NDH regime. Apart from the personal animosities of some of the players and the struggle for power, the aforementioned process showed the conflict between the new, Ustasha,
elite in the process of being formed, with its tendency to grab power, and the parts of the new, pre-war, elite, which joined the new regime. Through the control of various institutions, its economic power and earlier networks endeavoured to secure its positions and increase its influence, primarily through the “nationalisation of the economy”. Exactly this struggle for expropriated Jewish possessions was one of the
reasons for the conflict between Mayor Vrgoč and a group of influential
economists from Brod united in the Hrvatski radiša organisation who formally administered the expropriated possessions. The conflict ended with the dismissal of the compromised Vrgoč and the appointment of Dr Josip Koprivčević, a lawyer and historian, as mayor; until his appointment, he had neither been engaged in politics nor had he been a member of the Ustasha movement. This paper is not only a contribution to the history of Slavonski Brod in the period of the NDH, but also provides corrections of certain inaccuracies and erroneous interpretations apparent in the current literature. In a wider context, this article discusses one aspect of the
activities of the Ustasha regime and describes various political conflicts, power struggles as well as frequent usurpations and misuse within the regime on the local level.
Neste artigo, apresentamos um breve resumo da análise crítica feita por Jean-Michel Adam e Ute Heidmann (ADAM; HEIDMANN, 2011) de duas versões francesas da narrativa kafkiana sobre quatro mitos de ...Prometeu, que, uma vez compilada, alterada e publicada por Max Brod, ficou conhecida como Prometheus, em alemão. Trazemos ainda um resumo da discussão feita pelos autores sobre as divergências entre o texto alterado por Brod e o manuscrito original de Kafka, que diverge do primeiro. Em seguida, elencamos duas traduções consagradas em português, duas em espanhol e duas em italiano do texto compilado por Brod. Tais traduções vêm acompanhadas de breves reflexões que fizemos sobre estratégias e decisões dos tradutores. Como suporte teórico, recorremos, na área específica da análise crítica de traduções, à teoria de Rei?? (1986) e, no âmbito da poética do traduzir, a Meschonnic (2010) e Borges (1974). Por fim, apresentamos nossa proposta de tradução, em português, para o original de Kafka e o texto alterado por Brod. Palavras-chave: Prometeu; Kafka; Brod; original; tradução. In this article, we present a brief summary of the critical review made by Jean-Michel Adam and Ute Heidmann (ADAM; HEIDMANN, 2011) of two French translations of Kafka's narrative about four myths of Prometheus, which, after having been compiled, amended and published by Max Brod, became known under the German title of Prometheus. We also bring a summary of the discussion led by the authors on the divergences between Brod's amended text and Kafka's original manuscript, which diverges from the first. We then list two consecrated translations in Portuguese, two in Spanish and two in Italian of the text compiled by Brod. These translations are accompanied by brief reflections we have made on the translators' strategies and decisions. Concerning our theoretical support, in the specific area of translation criticism we have resorted to the theory developed by Rei?? (1986) and, in the scope of poetics of translating, to Meschonnic (2010) and Borges (1974). Finally, we present our translation proposal, in Portuguese, for the original by Kafka and the text amended by Brod. Keywords: Prometheus; Kafka; Brod; Original; Translation.

The activities of the public health service in Slavonski Brod began already at the time of the Military Border, when a cordon sanitaire and quarantine were established to prevent the transmission of ...dangerous infectious diseases across the Sava River. However, a more developed form of preventive medicine was introduced during the time of Andrija Štampar, involving the establishment of the School Polyclinic, the holding of public health lectures, and the founding of the Anti-Tuberculosis Dispensary, the Anti-Venereal Clinic, and the Anti-Rabies Station. A major advance was made in 1946, when the Sanitary-Epidemiological Station was established as a separate institution. It proved very successful in combating the post-war epidemic of abdominal typhus, eradicating malaria, and introducing mass vaccination against children’s infectious diseases. A sort of stagnation followed during the 40-year period within the frame of the Medical Centre, especially when compared to the great progress of clinical and diagnostic medicine. Preventive activity developed significantly after the founding of the County Institute of Public Health in 1994. This is particularly applicable to the monitoring and combating of chronic degenerative diseases, malign tumours, protection of schoolchildren and youths, and increasing attention given to addictive disorders among the younger population.
In Is Superman Circumcised?, Russell Schwartz provides a historical overview of Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster's creation of the comic book character Superman, arguing that Siegel and Shuster's ...backgrounds in Jewish immigrants gives a particularly Jewish subtext to their character. Schwartz builds on this argument with a larger historical overview of American comic book publishing, showing how Judaism and Jewish-American immigrant experiences have informed that industry from its earliest days.
This study is focused on the development of the settlement and property structures of the Český Brod region between the medieval transformation and the end of the Hussite uprisings. It depicts the ...old settlement area and the diverse mosaic of the founding power groups — the local minor nobility, the Prague (arch)diocese, other ecclesiastical institutions, Prague burghers and the marginal influence of the king and his towns.
This essay examines the metamorphic nature of Franz Kafka's writing. I focus in particular on the unpublished manuscripts Kafka left behind, which reveal the structural instability of his texts and ...the stories they tell. These stories were malleable and adaptive, meaning they changed depending on the writing environment and the materials Kafka used to compose his texts. Max Brod's influential edition of Kafka's manuscripts, however, literally erased Kafka's metamorphic writing style and replaced it with a canonical body of work authorized by "Kafka." This "Kafka," I demonstrate in this essay, is a chimera invented by Brod. Instead of a stable origin or final authority, "Kafka" is better understood, I argue, as shorthand for the long adaptation history, started by Brod himself, of the unpublished metamorphic texts Kafka left behind. In order to illustrate that Kafka's texts are always already a product of their own adaptation history, the essay studies the opening paragraph of The Castle (1926) through the lens of a dozen visual adaptations of this text. The essay is dedicated to a close reading of Olivier Deprez's magnificent adaptation Le Château. D'après Franz Kafka (1999). Overall, I make three interconnected arguments. First, that adaptations are essential to "Kafka," not derivative or secondary in any sense. Second, that visual adaptations in particular echo and expose the metamorphic nature of Kafka's own writings. Finally, that Kafka adaptations are highly media specific, and that the study of medium-specificity must remain an integral part of Adaptation Studies as an academic field.
Translation does not work in a vacuum. Making it visible as action in a structured context is the goal of this book. This broad context includes individuals and, more significantly, collective ...actors-publishers, reviewers and patrons, publishers, journals, social and political organizations. Individually and collectively, they form dynamic, interactive, and interdependent networks. These are essential for translation in exile, as they influence the production and reception of translations both positively and negatively. If they are missing, not only working conditions change, but entire biographies. Newly emerging networks, on the other hand, create the conditions for translating. What are the working and living conditions, the structures of action and publication in which translations are produced? What roles do they play in the lives and aesthetic careers of individual translators in exile? Answers can be found in this book.
The city of Slavonski Brod has been intensively developing as a tourist destination. Although the main motives for the arrival of tourists are business and family gatherings and other types of social ...events, and "food and accommodation" in cases of guests in transit, tourist traffic shows a tendency to grow which implicitly leads to an increase in accommodation. From the data of the eVisitor system, it is evident that more progressive growth is recorded in non-hotel compared to hotels and similar accommodation establishments. This is primarily due to the fact that, in the circumstances of the coronavirus pandemic and the conditions in which the hospitality sector operates under the epidemiological measures, family accommodation owners continue to operate relatively well (in the period from January to December 2020 family accommodation recorded a decrease of 31,71% compared to the same period in 2019, which is even 14,27% less than the average decline at the level of all city accommodation establishments). The research goals of this paper were to determine the attitude of local population regarding apartmentization and to find out if the owners of private rooms/apartments intend to provide accommodation services in future, and/or expand/modernize existing accommodation units. In the research we applied a questionnaire among local citizens and in-depth interviews with several owners of family accommodation as methods. The hypothesis we tried to prove was that both the growth and the quality of family accommodation in a destination is in the function of its tourist development. The research results should motivate the local population that has excess living space to provide accommodation services as additional activity and assist local government units in adopting measures to encourage private entrepreneurship in tourism.
Aktivnost javnozdravstvene službe u Slavonskom Brodu započinje već u vrijeme Vojne granice, kada je organiziran sanitarni kordon i karantena da bi se spriječilo prenošenje opasnih zaraznih bolesti ...preko Save. Ipak, razvijenija preventivna djelatnost slijedila je u vrijeme djelovanja Andrije Štampara, jer se osniva Školska poliklinika, održavaju javnozdravstvena predavanja, započinje rad Antituberkuloznoga dispanzera, Ambulante protiv veneričnih bolesti te Stanice protiv bjesnoće. Velik je napredak učinjen 1946. godine osnivanjem Sanitarno-epidemiološke stanice kao zasebne institucije. Pokazala se vrlo uspješnom u suzbijanju poslijeratne epidemije trbušnoga tifusa, eradikaciji malarije i uvođenju masovnoga cijepljenja protiv dječjih zaraznih bolesti. Kroz četrdesetgodišnje razdoblje, u okviru Medicinskoga centra slijedila je izvjesna stagnacija, napose u usporedbi s velikim progresom kliničkih i dijagnostičkih grana medicine. Osnivanjem Županijskog zavoda za javno zdravstvo 1994. godine preventivna djelatnost doživljava znatni razvitak. To se posebno odnosi na praćenje i suzbijanje kroničnih degenerativnih bolesti, malignih tumora, zaštitu školske djece i mladeži, kao i na osvješćivanje sve češće prisutne bolesti ovisnosti u mladoj populaciji.
