It is associated with the Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies, and together they provide broad interdisciplinary research and academic opportunities for students, graduate students, faculty, and visiting researchers. RCMSS has close ties and shares space with the Hilandar Research Library (HRL). Both developed as an outgrowth of the original Hilandar Research Project (1969-1982). RCMSS is a non-national oriented center that promotes Cyrillic-based research. The Center strives to accomplish its goals through the support of HRL preservation and access activities, research, stipends and travel, occasional acquisitions of HRL *Front cover photography, and the above excerpt come from a materials, publication support, and sponsoring confer- document with the name and title of Voevoda Radu IV the Great, ences, lectures, workshops, etc. Prince (Voevoda) of Wallachia, dated March of the year 7005 (1497).

Bloomfield) Getting to Know Our Student Workers Kevin Bloomfield, a third-year student at Ohio State concentrating in Greek, Latin and History, is a student associate at the Hilandar Research Library. He intends on pursuing graduate education in Medieval Byzantine History, and the opportunity to work at the HRL, one of the great repositories for medieval Slavic documents, was too enticing to pass up. Kevin has had the opportunity to examine documents from a noted figure, the nephew of Vlad the Impaler, or Dracula. Kevin remarks that one pleasure of working at Hilandar is the ability to engage with texts on a basic level. Even the most inscrutable writing surrenders vital information such as origin of composition or, rather famously, hidden acrostics. On a more personal note, working at Hilandar has given Kevin the opportunity to work with man- uscripts from the Byzantine period which was very useful in research for his writing sample for graduate school.

Jelica Stojanović THE DEVELOPMENT PATH OF THE SERBIAN LANGUAGE AND SCRIPT Podgorica 2020 MILOš KOVAčEVIć THE DEVELOPMENT PATH OF THE SERBIAN LANGUAGE AND SCRIPT, MADE UP OF STRAY PATHS Only two years have passed from the two hundredth anni- versary of the beginning of Vuk Karadžić’s struggle for “intro- ducing the folk language in literature”, that is to say, from the introduction of the Serbian folk language in the Serbian literary language, or to put it in the more modern phrasing of today: the standard language. The beginning of that struggle is connected to the year 1814, when, in the royal city of Vienna, Vuk’s first grammar book came out: The Orthography of the Serbian Lan- guage Based on the Speech of the Common Folk, which dealt with resolving the three most important standard-related issues: a) the issue of the Serbian orthography, b) the issue of the morpho- logical structure of the Serbian language, and c) the issue of the name of the language and its national boundaries. Rare are the languages, if, indeed, there are any, which have had such a turbulent history of two hundred years. The histor- ical development of a language can be followed at two histor- ical levels: that of its internal and that of its external history.

  • Information to Users
    INFORMATION TO USERS While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this manuscript, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. For example: • Manuscript pages may have indistinct print. In such cases, the best available copy has been filmed. • Manuscripts may not always be complete. In such cases, a note will indicate that it is not possible to obtain missing pages. • Copyrighted material may have been removed from the manuscript. In such cases, a note will indicate the deletion. Oversize materials (e.g., maps, drawings, and charts) are photographed by sectioning the original, beginning at the upper left-hand corner and continuing from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. Each oversize page is also filmed as one exposure and is available, for an additional charge, as a standard 35mm slide or as a 17”x 23” black and white photographic print. Most photographs reproduce acceptably on positive microfilm or microfiche but lack the clarity on xerographic copies made from the microfilm. For an additional charge, 35mm slides of 6”x 9” black and white photographic prints are available for any photographs or illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography.

  • 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.

  • The Disease Terminology in the Medical Codex of Hilandar N° 517 233
    FACTA UNIVERSITATIS Series: Linguistics and Literature Vol. 2, No 8, 2001, pp. 231 - 242 THE DISEASE TERMINOLOGY IN THE MEDICAL CODEX OF HILANDAR N°517 UDC 808.61-3:61 Nadežda Jović Faculty of Philosophy, Niš, Yugoslavia Abstract. In the middle ages, beginning from the end of the 12. century, theSerbs had hospitals which treated the patients accoriding to theByzanthium and West medical knowledge of that time. The Medical Codex of Hilandar is the most complete Serbian book of the scientific middle age medicine and contains the basis of our medical terminology. The paper analyzes the disease terms only. The relationship between Slavic and non-Slavic terms have been analyzed, their structural and linguistic characteristics (phonetic, morphology and spelling), as well as the use of the middle age terms in the contemporary scinetific and folk medical terminology. In the middle ages, at the end of the XII century1, the Serbs had hospitals to cure the ill people according to the medical achievements of that time. The impact of Byzantium was greater in the subsidiary sciences, while the Western impact was dominant in the practical medical sciences.2 Dating from the end of XVI century, the most complete Serbian handbook of the scientific medicine of that time The Medical Codex of Hilandar represents a translation and the revision of some of the medical manuscripts of the Salerno-Montpelje school, the basis of which is in the ancient medical thought and practice. There was a photoprinting edition of the Codex in 1980 because of its great significance, and, soon after that, in 1989, it was transcribed and translated.
