[email protected] Szerkesztésért felelős személy: Chen Xin Kiadásért felelős személy: Huang Ping china-cee.eu 2017/01 Several Cultural Events Marked the Month of October in Serbia Abstract Several large-scale cultural events took place in Serbia during October. With a number of manifestations held throughout the country, the Serbian Orthodox Church marked a great jubilee - 800 years of its autonomous status (autocephaly) from the Ecumenical Patriarchate. Apart from this remarkably important anniversary, other significant cultural events during October included some of the most visited gatherings in Belgrade, such as the 64th International Book Fair. In connection to these events, the general public has shown additional interest in Serbian Church’s decoration of the country president Aleksandar Vučić and the Bosnia-Herzegovina Presidency member Milorad Dodik, as well as the settlement through which the missing fragment of the medieval, UNESCO-protected manuscript „Miroslav Gospel” was retrieved from Russia. Other cultural events also included the 35th Belgrade Jazz Festival and the first major retrospective of the world-renowned performance artist Marina Abramović in her hometown, titled „The Cleaner“, hosted by the Museum of Contemporary Arts. Between October 6th-9th, Žiča monastery near Kraljevo was the central place of the 800th anniversary of the recognition of the autocephaly of the Serbian Orthodox Church, alongside several other events organized in the Patriarchate of Peć and other Serbian monasteries in Kosovo and Metohija, as well as a large ceremony in Belgrade’s main congress arena, the Sava Centre.

  • Memory of the World Register Nomination Form Ref N° 2004-11
    MEMORY OF THE WORLD REGISTER NOMINATION FORM REF N° 2004-11 PART A – ESSENTIAL INFORMATION 1 SUMMARY The Miroslav Gospel, a manuscript dating from around 1180 with miniatures of outstanding beauty, is the representative of a group of illuminated manuscripts of specific style and iconography resulting from fusion of elements of the West (Italy) and the East (Byzantium). This Serbian script that the concept of book decoration shares with other Orthodox Slavs and the style with the miniatures originating from mid-Italian scriptoria, is actually one of the most important testimonies of the artistic influences paths made from the West to the East and back. The Miroslav Gospel documents the liturgic structure of the evangelistary and an important stage of development of the Rascian orthography, the importance of which goes beyond the mediaeval Serbia boundaries. The valuable material - parchment and gilding - has been preserved almost completely and documents well the endowment power of Christian princes in the Balkans by the end of the 12th C. By its style which is the mixture of the influences from the West and the East, the Miroslav Gospel is the unique manuscript of its kind in the region, as well as in the world. By its beauty and uniqueness the Miroslav Gospel will influence later other manuscripts of the region, as well as of the Medieval Europe. This manuscript represents the most precious and significant document in cultural heritage in Serbia. 2 DETAILS OF THE NOMINATOR 2.1 Name (person or organisation) Unesco National Commission of Serbia and Montenegro President Mr. Jovan Ćirilov National Museum, Belgrade Mr.

  • Editing in a Sixteenth-Century Serbian Manuscript (HM.SMS. 280) a Lexical Analysis with Comparison to the Russian Original Diss
    Editing in a Sixteenth-Century Serbian Manuscript (HM.SMS. 280) A Lexical Analysis with Comparison to the Russian Original Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By !ivojin Jakovljevi", M.A. Graduate Program in Slavic and East European Languages and Literatures The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Daniel E. Collins, Adviser Dr. Charles Gribble Dr. Predrag Mateji" Copyright by !ivojin Jakovljevi" 2011 ABSTRACT This study encompasses an analysis of the language found in the first Serbian copy of The History of the Jewish War (HM.SMS.280) compared to its Russian original (HM.SMS.281). This research follows the clues in the colophon written by the Serbian scribe, the hieromonk Grigorije Vasilije, in which he states that the Serbian people could not understand the Russian words of the original manuscript. For this reason, Grigorije Vasilije states, he had to “translate” the unknown words into Serbian. Since the Serbian manuscript consists of a large number of folia, 255 of them, a sampling approach was used, whereby eight folia from six sections were extracted and analyzed. The results of the findings identify a number of lexical variations which were distinctive in Serbian and the Russian recensions at the end of the sixteenth century. Some of the lexemes found in the Serbian manuscript are attested for the first time, and as such they make an addition to our knowledge of medieval Serbian lexicography. The findings of this research show that many of the hard-to-understand words were very specific technical terms from military vocabulary—not words that a monk (or most laymen) could be expected to know.

Its source is still subject of scientific debate, while its mouth widens year-in-year-out. Throughout its history, the river had a major role as a link and as a border, as the lifeblood of commerce, but also the scene of wars and conflicts. The river’s name comes from the Latin name Danubius, which has its roots in the ancient Greek word meaning the river of Zeus or “heavenly bliss”. The second part of the coinage comes from the word “bios”, which means life – especially human life.
