Mihailo Vojvodić (1938–2025)
No full textMihailo Vojvodić was a distinguished scholar and dedicated academic. Professor
Vojvodić’s research focused on what is perhaps the most intriguing
period in the modern history of Serbia: the age in which the Serbian national
identity was forged in the modern sense (from 1878 to 1914). During his long
career, he sought to unravel the intricacies of the foreign policy aspect of this
process, in which Serbia’s independence, as established at the Congress of Vienna,
set the stage for the development of its institutions, civil society, military
and, most significantly, the transformation of the Serbian peasantry into citizens
and conscripts of the Serbian state who wholeheartedly embraced the objectives
of the Serbian nation
Mihailo Vojvodić, Balkanski rasplet: otpor Srbije stranim interesima na Balkanu (od Aneksione krize do Velikog rata) [The Balkan Unraveling: Serbia’s Resistance to Foreign Interests in the Balkans (from the Annexation Crisis to the Great War)]. Belgrade: Institute for Balkan Studies SASA, IP Clio, 2024, 238 p.
No full textIn his book Balkanski Rasplet [The Balkan
Unraveling], Mihailo Vojvodić, a
member of the Serbian Academy of Sciences
and Arts, examines Serbia’s foreign
policy during the turbulent period from
the Annexation Crisis to the beginning of
World War I. While working on publishing
documents on Serbia’s foreign policy
from 1903 to 1914 within a multi-volume
collection, the author drew on materials
from domestic archives related to
this period, which form the basis of this
monograph. The book includes a preface,
introduction, nine chapters divided into
subsections, and a conclusion

Употребление прошедших времен глаголов в Вуковом переводе Евангелий : соотношение сербского перевода и церковнославянского исходника
No full textУ раду се кроз анализу употребе прошлих глаголских времена представља однос Вуковог превода Новог завјета према коришћеном црквенословенском предлошку (Јелисаветинској Библији), при чему је грађа сведена на превод јеванђељâ. Испитује се у којој је мери Вук преносио стање из предлошка, не променивши затечени глаголски облик, а колико често је друге црквенословенске конструкције, од којих нису све глаголске, преводио конструкцијама с прошлим глаголским временом. Скреће се пажња и на лексичку разноврсност у Вуковој употреби претериталних времена, која је уочена приликом истраживања поменутих односа.В статье посредством анализа употребления прошедших времен глаголов представляется соотношение перевода Нового Завета Вука с использованным им церковнославянским исходником (Елизаветинской Библией), при этом материал ограничен переводом Евангелий. Исследуется в какой степени Вук передавал без изменений глагольную форму из исходника, а как часто он переводил другие церковнославянские конструкции, не все из которых являются глагольными, конструкциями с прошедшими временами глаголов. Внимание обращается и на замеченное в ходе исследования данных соотношений лексическое разнообразие в использовании Вуком прошедших времен
The Newness of Quantum Music
No full textIn this study, I discuss the diverse possibilities of interweaving quantum physics and music. After providing an overview of several recent, mutually different approaches to combining quantum physics and music, I describe two collaborative EU projects in which I was involved for seven years: “Quantum Music” (2015-2018) and its ‘sequel’, “Beyond Quantum Music” (2019-2022). I provide basic information about these projects, describe their artistic and scientific components, and highlight their innovativeness. In conclusion, I pose numerous questions about the feasibility of ‘new music’ in the 21st century and the very concept of ‘newness’, while highlighting how quantum music in its various incarnations can inspire us to think about the possibilities of kickstarting a new avant-garde. I conceptualise quantum music as a path to a new avant-garde that is tailored to the needs and challenges of the 21st century while retaining strong links with the past.Musikforschung der Hochschule der Künste Bern, Nr. 19
The Great Symphonists Died. Now What? A Sombre Overview
No full textIn this paper, I will present the decline in the number of new symphonies in Serbian music from three major aspects: the deaths of symphonic composers, a decrease or lack of institutional support, and general disinterest in writing large orchestral genres such as symphonies within dominant postmodernist tendencies
Graphene nanowindows as a basis for creating mechanically robust nanohydroxyapatite bone lamellar scaffolds
No full textThe role of graphene nanowindows in the nanohydroxyapatite bone scaffold preparation is important for the preparation of mechanically robust scaffolds and implementation in bone recovery. Here, we report a graphene-nanohydroxyapatite (G-nHAP) scaffold synthesized by the hydrothermal method, along with its formation mechanism and promising in vivo applications. The G-nHAP scaffold exhibits excellent mechanical strength comparable to that of cancellous bone. The nHAP was grown on 2D layers of graphene with nanowindows. The role of nanowindows was to attract electrostatically Ca2+, PO43+, and OH− precursors of nHAP, forming a layered structure of G-nHAP, in which nHAP nanorods of 23.8 nm in diameter and 84.7 nm in length were placed between graphene layers, as evidenced with molecular dynamic simulations. In vivo study showed mature and mineralized bone and osteoid after six weeks. This demonstrates the role of graphene nanowindows in the formation of nHAP scaffolds that are promising for future implementation in bone tissue regeneration
Evaluation of Cinnamon Essential Oil and Its Emulsion on Biofilm-Associated Components of Acinetobacter baumannii Clinical Strains
No full textBackground/Objectives: Acinetobacter baumannii, one of the most dangerous pathogens, is able to form biofilm structures and aggravate its treatment. For that reason, new antibiofilm agents are in need, and new sources of antibiofilm compounds are being sought from plants and their products. Cinnamon essential oil is associated with a wide spectrum of biological activities, but with a further improvement of its physicochemical properties it could provide even better bioavailability. The aim of this work was the evaluation of the antibiofilm properties of cinnamon essential oil and its emulsion. Methods: In order to evaluate the antibiofilm activity, crystal violet assay was performed to determine biofilm biomass. The main components of the biofilm matrix were measured as well as the motile capacity of the tested strains. Gene expression was monitored with RT-qPCR, while treated biofilms were observed with Raman spectroscopy. Results: A particularly strong potential against pre-formed biofilm with a decreased biomass of up to 66% was found. The effect was monitored not only with regard to the whole biofilm biomass, but also on the individual components of the biofilm matrix such as exopolysaccharides, proteins, and eDNA molecules. Protein share drops in treated biofilms demonstrated the most consistency among strains and rose to 75%. The changes in strain motility and gene expressions were investigated after the treatments were carried out. Raman spectroscopy revealed the influence of the studied compounds on chemical bond types and the components present in the biofilm matrix of the tested strains. Conclusions: The results obtained from this research are promising regarding cinnamon essential oil and its emulsion as potential antibiofilm agents, so further investigation of their activity is encouraged for their potential use in biomedical applications
Cellular biocompatibility of amorphous calcium phosphate nanoparticles as a fundamental property for application in tissue engineering
No full textThe cellular biocompatibility of amorphous calcium phosphate nanoparticles (NPsACP) was evaluated. More precisely, we tested their cytotoxic effects through cell adhesion, MTT and LDH assay, cellular uptake ability by flow cytometry and anti-apoptotic and proliferation gene expression on immortalized human cell lines (HaCaT and HS-5). Our results indicate a generally high level of cellular biocompatibility of NPsACP; however, at high concentrations and longer exposure times, we observed a low level of toxicity. The intracellular biocompatibility of NPsACP was examined and confirmed through an analysis of Survivin, BCL2, HOX and Ki67 genes.This is the peer reviewed version of the paper: Herendija, Evelina, Karišik, Milica Jakšić, Milašin, Jelena, Lazarević, Miloš, Ignjatović, Nenad, "Cellular biocompatibility of amorphous calcium phosphate nanoparticles as a fundamental property for application in tissue engineering" in Materials Letters, 401 (2025):139247, [https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matlet.2025.139247
