It is about a cultural heritage, something vital to a society as a society, something that was not killed in the previous war, something that is resilient. "Through the Window" brings an original perspective to folklore of Bosnians at a certain period of time and the differences and similarities of the three main ethnic groups in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It examines the transethnic character of cultural heritage, against divisions that dominate their tragic recent past. The monograph focuses in particular on customs shared by different ethnic groups, specifically elopement, and affinal visitation. The elopement is a transformative rite of passage where an unmarried girl becomes a married woman. The affinal visitation, which follows, is a confirmatory ceremony where ritualized customs between families establish in-lawships These customs reflect a transethnic heritage shared by people in Bosnia as a national group, including Bosniaks, Serbs and Croats.ElopementBosnia and HerzegovinaMarriageBosnia and HerzegovinaWomenBosnia and HerzegovinaMarriage customs and ritesBosnia and HerzegovinaBosniansMarriage customs and rites19th century, 20th century, Bosnia, Elopement, Ethnic relations, Ethnography, Marriage, Women.ElopementMarriageWomenMarriage customs and ritesBosnians305.40949742Doubt Keith1472442MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910787122603321Through the window3790853UNINA
