description | This paper, based on the analysis of Albanian odonyms in the southern part of
Kosovska Mitrovica and Serbian odonyms in the northern part of Kosovska
Mitrovica, examines the current ideological and political orientations,
differences in regard to cultural and social priorities of residents living
on both sides of the Ibar River, as well as the manner and extent of
abolishing the old and establishing the new town identity. It is established
that odonyms, among other things, play an important role in shaping the
public opinion and value system of the population. The research has shown
that both Albanian and Serbian odonyms are of the commemorative type, and
that Albanian commemorative odonyms primarily consist of names of war and
rebellion participants, whereas Serbian commemorative odonyms are devoted to
cultural dignitaries. Furthermore, although Albanian odonyms considerably
outnumber the Serbian odonym corpus, the latter is characterised by a greater
variety of motifs. |
