Nova etnografija
“Nova etnografija” is perceived as a book series for the Institute of Ethnology and Folklore Research, whose primary purpose is the production of quality Masters and Doctoral works on different themes in the disciplines of ethnology, anthropology, ethnography and folklore studies. For the moment, a small number of publications have been produced on wide variety of themes related to the ones that the staff at the Institute are engaged in, which as well follow the most up to date trends in world academic research. The intention of the team is also to translate and publish particularly valuable academic works from abroad, which up until now have not been available in Croatian for either a professional readership or for general interest.

The Early Domestic Record Industry: Edison Bell Penkala, Elektroton and Jugoton
Editors: Naila Ceribašić, Dora Dunatov and Jelka Vukobratović
For the studies brought together in this volume, music is no longer necessarily something marked by notation or its absence; for them, music is also something that can be recorded phonographically. In other words, instead of records in the register of the symbolic, this volume considers music that is recordable and recorded in the register of the real. […] If this extensive and multifaceted book offers a kind of history, analysis, and anthropology of domestic musical culture in the twentieth century, it also provides a view of the present, of today’s disputes and problems in dealing with the musical heritage of the previous century.
Dalibor Davidović, Full Professor, Academy of Music, University of Zagreb
