Precious memories of places we visited last summer - children jumping with joy into the Drim River flowing through the town of Struga on Lake Ohrid. What a wonderful and uninterrupted fusion of water and land that little piece of our planet is.

Plitvice Lakes National Park. Very touristy but still tranquil and spiritual if you focus on water.

As a good morning to you all - a couple of snapshots of Lake Prespa shared by N. Macedonia, Greece, and Albania. I went their guided by my long term fascination and by literary inspiration. A must see if you love watery worlds in all of their complexity.

Just a motif from the upcoming photoessay arising from my current project "The river runs through it: emotions, perceptions, and memories on both sides of the Sava River" (in collaboration with colleagues from The Brodsko Posavlje Museum). More soon!

That’s Right You see
That's Right
None of what you
are seeing is what you are seeing.
We do not bomb the hospitals
You see
We do not shoot the starving people
You see
We do not torture the tortured people
You see
We do not kill the dead babies
You see
They brought it on themselves
By being born
And by not releasing hostages.
You see.
We are the most moral army
The Golfer's Best Friends.
Everything you
see with your own eyes is a lie
We put out eyes.

Pleased to share my article on significance of rivers in post-conflict environments. What does focus on rivers convey about nation-building narratives and understanding of identities? With thanks to @cambridgeuppolisci.bsky.social for support through the process! www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

The Sava River as a triple border (interstate, EU and Schengen) and a space of complex memories, emotions, and experiences. And a fisherman enjoying a calm autumn morning, perhaps not even concerning himself with any of these issues. More is to come as part of my project on rivers and societies.

The second article, by @drmirnasolic.bsky.social, asks questions about stasis, movement and homing in '"Neither Here, nor There”: Riverscapes in Films on Migration', suggesting alternative ways of looking at the notion of circulation: modernlanguagesopen.org/articles/10....
