Transfer to the airport; departure. page 1 / 4 Vojvodina tours Serbia Arrangements Novi Sad is a town on the river Danube, located in the middle of the Vojvodinian part of Panonian plain and is the second largest city in Serbia. It is located between the 19th and 20th degree of the eastern longitude and the 45th and 46th degree of the northern latitude, on 72 to11.79 80 m of altitude. Novi Sad is located on the international road, which connects Budapest and Vienna, Thessalonica, Athens, Bucharest and Istanbul The highway E-72 [Budapest-Belgrade-Nis] passes alongside Novi Sad while the highway E-70 [Zagreb-Belgrade] is in the close vicinity. The average distance between Novi Sad and the neighbouring countries [Hungary, Romania, Croatia, Bosnia and Hercegovina] is 80 km while the nearest airport in Belgrade is 70 km away. The advantage of this town lies in its geo-strategic location. Novi Sad is on the water road Rain-Main-Danube that connects nine countries and six capitals of Europe, and which is 588 km long in our country. Novi Sad is also famous for its attractive picnic grounds in the surroundings of the town, around the banks of the river or on Fruska Gora. Population Novi Sad has 300 000 inhabitants [298 139 according to the census in 2002]. Novi Sad is a multi-ethnic place [Serbs, Hungarians, Montenegrins, Slovaks, Ruthanians, Croats, Hebrews, Romany people and others] where national communities are equally presented in the political, public and cultural life. Languages Serbian language and Cyrillic alphabet are officially used in the town. Hungarian, Slovakian and Ruthanian languages and their alphabets are also officially used according to the law and the specific decision of the town's Assembly. Vojvodina is known for its enormous cultural value not only for the Serbs but for all the nations that comprise it [the province is consisted of 6 constituent nations and 30 other nationalities, the most diverse area in Europe after Greater London]. - Fruska Gora- a pilgramige site; located outside Novi Sad on a mountin overlooking Pannonian Plain, it posseses dosens of monasteries of Serbian Orthodox Church built between 15-19th centuries by Serbian settlers from the south. Combining European reinassance with ancient Balkan culture these churches have a big cultural importance as a bridge between so called Southern and Northern Serbs. - Sremski Karlovci- today a town belonging to municipality of Novi Sad, has been a cultural seat of the Serbs in Austria for centuries. It contains the Patriarchate of Serbian Church [approved by Leopold page 2 / 4 von Austria], the oldest Serbian gymnasium [1791], and was the seat of the Cogress of Holy League in 1699, when great powers [Poland, Austria, Venice] have given this land to Austria for protection. One of the most picturesque sites in the country. - Dundjerski Castle- just like other regions that have belonged to Austria, Vojvodina has more than 20 castles from that period, belonging mostly to Germans, Magyars and some Serbian noble families in the past. Most of them are under protection of the state today. - Palic lake- the oldest tourist attraction in the country, dating back to 1840s, when it was a spa for European nobility. Today it faces its reconstruction trying to achieve its former glory. Most people in Vojvodina, especially the younger and in the cities, can speak and understand at least some English. German is also often taught at school, French is restricted to a very thin elite, but Hungarian remains native to 14 percent of the population and is spoken by many more. If you are studying Serbian, Vojvodina may be your best place to start using it. The speech there is slow and clear, indeed so slow that it has become the butt of jokes. But Serbian is by no means the only language you may hear in that province. With over three quarters of the population now claiming Serbian as their mother tongue, it is true that Vojvodina is no longer the linguistic mosaic that it used to be. But it remains ethnically diverse and many Vojvodinians take pride in preserving their various native languages. No less than six are considered official: Serbian, Hungarian, Slovak, Romanian, Croatian, and Rusyn. They may soon be joined by the Serbo-Croatian dialect spoken by the Bunjevci, an ethnic group from northwestern Vojvodina, which is a controversial matter as both Serbs and Croats claim the Bunjevci as their own. German, or rather its dialect called Danube Swabian, was native to one quarter of Vojvodina's population before the Second World War, and spoken by many more. But most ethnic Germans were either deported or killed in the war's aftermath. With just over three thousand local Germans remaining dispersed throughout Vojvodina today, their dialect is all but extinct. Some members of other tiny minorities, hailing from various parts of the Habsburg Empire [the Czechs, the Ukrainians, etc.] and the former Yugoslavia [the Macedonians, the Albanians, etc.] also try to preserve their native languages. Vojvodina is home also to the Roma or Gypsies, many of whom speak their various mother tongues. Last but not least, some of the newest immigrants speak Chinese. Sremski Karlovci In the immediate vicinity of Novi Sad is the town of Sremski Karlovci, a typical town from the end of the 18-th and the beginning of the 19-th century, in the baroque and neo-classical style. The town had been the cultural and educational centre of the Serbs in the Austria-Hungary Empire, in which the peace agreement, between Turkey and Austria and its allies, was signed in 1699. The buildings of the Patriarchate of the Serbian Orthodox church and the Gymnasium, valuable iconostasis in the Orthodox church, architectural details on many old buildings, and especailly the vacation area Strazilovo, can all draw attention of the tourists. The grave of one of the greatest poets of romanticism, Branko Radicevic, is located on top of the hill Strazilovo. Rich history of the town, which was first mentioned in 1308, can be seen in the Museum, located in the "Ilion" building. The Gymnasium of Karlovci is the oldest Serbian gymnasium, built in 1791, while the entrance in the monumental Patriarchate court is among the most successful works of Vojvodina's architecture from the end of the 19-th century. ___________________________________________________________ Fishing Lake crni Vir [Black Whirlpool] is located at the very entrance to Kac, a settlement near Salas 84. The lake is actually a former backwater of the Danube, surrounded by reed. There are 18 locations for fishing, each of which is equipped with a wooden platform, which makes fishing easier, since the bank is rather steep. The lake is home to a whole wealth of carps, grass carps, pikes, breams... Hunting Vast fields around Salas 84 are hunting grounds rich in pheasants, hares and deer. History and culture A visit to the church in Gospo?inci where a banner with the names of World War I volunteers is kept, some of which are also engraved on the plates at the Serbian Military cemetery in Thessalonica; the unique church in curug with three spires, a three-tone church-bell and the iconostasis made of white marble; the Orthodox church in zabalj with the iconostasis made of multicolour stones and the Roman catholic church dedicated to the Snow Lady or the Greek-catholic church of the Nativity of the Mother of God in ?ur?evo. Wine-tasting A tour of the vineyards in Sremski Karlovci, which date back from the time of Emperor Probus, located on the slopes of the Fruska Gora mountain and facing the Danube.

Various and fertile premises and conclusions about the politi- cal, ideological and sociological causes of the musical migrations, as well as about their formal and aesthetical consequences, can be reached by observing the move- ments of Czech musicians across the map of Europe (and even of the world!), particu- larly in the 18th and in the 19th centuries.

  • Nomination Form
    International Memory of the World Register Documentary film on Correspondence theatre (Serbia) 2012-79 1.0 SUMMARY Correspondence theatre is a specific form of theatre play and organization, founded in Novi Sad, Serbia in 1974. That year was a turning point in ex-Yugoslavia. The year when one cultural concept, financed and ruled by the state and governing communist party, started to fade in front of a decentralized, so called self-governing, financed by Funds. Theoretically and practically, it was implemented by a group of theatre enthusiasts under the guidance of Mladen Dražetin, as an original model of theatre culture, an extension among the masses. In the beginning, theatre performances were created in the villages and towns of ex-Yugoslavia according to manuals delivered, to the organizers from Novi Sad, from all across the world, via letters, the telephone, the radio and fax machines. The actors in the performances were both amateurs, taking their first steps and professionals opting to taste a new playing and cooperative approach, more frank and informal. The new acting stage was interactive, the protagonists attained to the audience, direct communication with the audience was established, to mutual satisfaction. Within this model, different branches of theatre were established: dramatic, comical, ecological, invitations to peacekeeping and humanitarian actions, puppet/play and live plays in children’s hospitals and institutions. Each individual spectator was provided with the opportunity to make suggestion and remarks which the writers and the acting group would later incorporate to make a new play, one which would always have a humanistic sense. The method was to join two main principles: that each person had common ideals and needs and specific ones.

  • 65Th Sterijino Pozorje Festival Selector's Report
    65th Sterijino Pozorje Festival Selector’s Report REALITY – STRANGER THAN FICTION Theatres in Serbia are ending their 2019-20 season in a state of deep existential crisis, but, at the same time – at least when talking about the most relevant productions in these theatres – in a state of an artistically elevated and social self-awareness. What does this (apparent) paradox consist of? The most obvious sign of crisis is shown in quantitative measures. The fact that – according to the statistics – the number of premiers in the entire 2019 was at a historical low unfortunately corresponds with the situation in the 2019-20 season – when talking about the entire “domestic production,” as well as the first performances of contemporary Serbian dramas. Namely, when compared to the previous season, when 52 domestic productions were realized, including 35 first performances, this season witnessed only 38 domestic productions, including 27 first performances of Serbian dramas, concepts, or dramatizations of Serbian prose works. It is evident that this critical state was contributed by deteriorating financial conditions (irregular funding or lower production budgets), as well as organizational and structural difficulties (inability of theatres to hire professional and artistic cadre, artistic balancing), but the main problem is (still) the absence of long-term (sometimes even short-term) repertoire concepts. This absence causes, among other things, unbelievable oscillations in the stage presence of the contemporary Serbian drama – from the dominant stream to the almost episodical role in a single year. Therefore, in the past season, we have witnessed only two new playwrights whose texts were presented on the stage (Staša Bajac and Dimitrije Kokakov) and two real debutants (Ognjen Petković and Isidora Milosavljević) – while a relative counterbalance to this scarcity is the presence of a few successful productions of the new wave of dramatizations.

  • Nationalist Crossroads and Crosshairs: on External and Internal Sources of Albanian and Serbian National Mythology
    Nationalist Crossroads and Crosshairs: On External and Internal Sources of Albanian and Serbian National Mythology Matvey Lomonosov Department of Sociology McGill University, Montreal June 2018 A dissertation submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology © Matvey Lomonosov, 2018 Abstract This dissertation employs comparative historical methods to investigate the development of Albanian and Serbian national identity over the last two centuries. More narrowly, it traces the emergence and evolution of two foundational national myths: the story of the Illyrian origins of the Albanian nation and the narrative of the 1389 Battle of Kosovo. The study focuses on micro- and meso-level processes, the life course of mythmakers and specific historical situations. For this, it relies on archival data from Albania, Bosnia, Kosovo, Montenegro and Serbia, as well as a wide body of published primary and secondary historical sources. The dissertation is composed of four separate articles. In the first article, I offer evidence that the Kosovo myth, which is often seen as a “crucial” supporting case for ethno-symbolist theory, is a modern ideological construct. For evidence, the article focuses on temporal, geographical and cultural ruptures in the supposedly long-standing “medieval Kosovo legacy” and the way the narrative was promoted among South Slavs in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It finds that Serbian-speaking diaspora intellectuals from the Habsburg Empire and the governments in Belgrade and Cetinje played crucial roles imparting the Kosovo myth to the Balkan masses. Thus, it is hard to account for the rise of national identities and local conflicts in the Balkans without a closer look at foreign intervention and the history of states and institutions.
