Sažetak
Visitors to Bosnian and Herzegovinian cities often remark on the presence of different religious architecture, that marks not just the landscape but also the soundscape of the city. The presence of mosque, Catholic and Orthodox churches, and the sounds of the muezzins’ call for prayer a church bell rings the hour, are often interpreted as visible and audible signs of not only of coexistence, but also of tolerance. Looking at these architectural and sonic representations “from the bottom up, ” as the backdrop to everyday life practices, we analyse what they represent to various people and how they influence local life. Using examples from several small-scale cities from Bosnia and Herzegovina, we discuss how physical and audible manifestations of different religious objects frame local everyday life in mixed communities that are often presented as sites of tolerance, coexistence and reconciliation.
