Srpkinja



















































Evropljanka –Srpkinja je oličenje srpstva u evropskom ruhu. Ona je od glave do pete mondenski obučena, na oficirskim balovima i matineima. Govori francuski jezik i iz dobre je I politički vrlo aktivne kuće. Otac je, bar jednom godišnje, obično tik uz princa prestolonaslednika, a majka je bliska prijateljica visoko-poštovane supruge ministra. Udaje se nevina oko dvadesete za ucenog rodoljuba i postovanog mladog gospodina. Brak manje vise prihvata patrijahalno, jer polozaj Srbije nikada nije dozvoljavao ni patrijahalnost istoka i ni raspusnost zapada da preovlada onu drugu kategoriju. Tako je bilo nekada. Danas je srpkinja podeljena na ruralno i urbano poreklo i malo je ostalo od umerene i uzdrzane otmenosti, a mnogo više je okrenuta modernim tokovima I praćenju modela sa zapada. Urbana Srpkinja je utopljena u Sex and the City I ima probleme iste kao i proslavljena, svojatana i opste prihvacena Bridget Jones I tako je, iako je standard užasno različit, bliska, svim svojim virtualnim prijateljicama iz `novog sveta` i Skadinavije. Ona je na večitoj razmedji istoka i zapada – i domaćica i PR manager. Ume da bude bezobrazno otmena kada celu svoju platu da na parfem koji je videla u Vogue-u dok je listala na jednom od prodajnih mesta jer Vogue I dalje dosta košta za srpske standarde. Njena sudbina je često oskrnavljena urodjenim i naslednim kompleksom pripadnika istočne Evrope i sramotom dok čeka u redu za vizu. Tada ona prestaje da bude Evropljanka i postaje ponosna srpkinja koja je navikla i na bombe i na redove, ali i na premijere baleta okruzena ‚‚la creme‚‚ beogradskim društvom...

Camp versus Kitsch


Camp is an aesthetic in which something has appeal because of its bad taste or ironic value.
A part of the anti-academic defense of
popular culture in the sixties, camp came to popularity in the eighties with the widespread adoption of Postmodern views on art and culture. “Camp” is derived from the French slang term se camper, which means “to pose in an exaggerated fashion.”As part of camp, drag typically consists of feminine apparel, ranging from slight make-up and a few feminine garments, typically hats, gloves, or high heels, to a total getup, complete with wigs, gowns, jewellery, and full make-up. In the case of drag kings or female male-impersonators, the opposite is true and often involves exaggerated displays of traditional male sexuality. Camp has been from the start an ironic attitude, embraced by anti-Academic theorists for its explicit defense of clearly marginalized forms. As such, its claims to legitimacy are dependent on its opposition to the status quo; camp has no aspiration to timelessness, but rather lives on the hypocrisy of the dominant culture.
Much like the closely related notion of kitsch, camp has traditionally been viewed as hard to define. The terms "camp" and "kitsch" are often used interchangeably; both may relate to art, literature, music, or any object that carries an aesthetic value. However, "kitsch" refers specifically to the object proper, whereas "camp" is a mode of performance. Thus, a person may consume kitsch intentionally or unintentionally. Camp, however, as Susan Sontag observed, is always a way of consuming or performing culture "in quotation marks."
