NARRATIVE OF CULTURAL HERITAGE: THEORY AND PRACTICE – CHURCH OF ST. NIKOLA IN PRISTINA
Abstract
Depending on the context in which the subject of past achieves a particular communication, is inter-preted and used, the value of this subject is changed. The object polysemy is causing this so we are always challenged to rethink the phenomenon of heritage. At that point we are in the domain of explanation, and that mean in story, narrative. But what kind of story? If we know that images of past are product of selective forgetting and active process of remembering, and are part of narrative time concept through whom we read and examine heritage object, than the story that we make about that object is not strictly linear, it breaks rigid chronology, and creates a plot that combines elements of temporal experience. The case study of this theory and focus of this paper is 19th century church of St. Nikola in Pristina. We are following the life and mean-ing of this object in the old city center through the period of existence and ideas that enriched it. The aim is to recognize and discuss place of the church in the cultural memory of town, and oppositeReferences
