The papers in this volume of Ethnologia Balkanica focus on various kinds
of emotions of people in Southeast Europe. Grief and sadness are, of
course, universal, but they take on different forms of expression, as
some papers in this volume show. In the times of the socialist system
laughter could express resistance, and for the many labour migrants from
the Balkans visiting their country of origin often evokes feelings of
being at home. Cities make efforts to attract visitors through emotions
and many people try to relive times of past glory emotionally by means
of historical re-enactments. In everyday life, gossip is an important
means of expressing positive or negative emotions, just like smells and
rituals can become expressions of actual or remembered emotions. Thus,
for researchers emotions are a factor that always must be taken serious,
both those of the people they study and their own. The volume also
contains obituaries of two outstanding social anthropologists, Joel
Halpern and Christian Giordano, whose work focussed on the Balkans, as
well as reports and book reviews that relate to this region.
Klaus Roth is professor em. at the Institute for European Ethnology of
