From the Notebooks of Jovan Cvijić - Selected Pages and Interpretations
Get PDFThe publication that is before the reader, entitled From the Notebooks of Jovan Cvijić – Selected Pages and Interpretations, is the result of cooperation between the Belgrade City Museum and the Geographical Institute “Jovan Cvijić” SASA. It has been prepared with a deep awareness of the importance of Jovan Cvijić’s scientific research work and with the idea to present to the academic and general audiences less familiar details related to the research of Jovan Cvijić, data
collecting and the preparation of visual materials, through a carefully organised and thoughtfully and professionally written book. The primary task required a meticulous and thorough work on
the analysis of extensive historical and archival material, fact-finding and data selection. Valuable data were then arranged so as to best reflect the field research of the great Serbian scientist. The texts accompanying the corresponding original pages from Cvijić’s notebooks are
written in a concise and structurally equable manner, in order to present selected details about his scientific work and indicate his views and opinions. Furthermore, each text also bears the personal signature of the author, expressed through the interpretation of the selected manuscripts. At the beginning of the publication, the Museum of Jovan Cvijić is presented, along with the Legacy containing 42 of his notebooks registered in the inventory. The historical and geographical context of the notebooks is subsequently analysed in a separate text, followed by
an overview of the dominant issues therein elaborated. The latter part of the publication contains a number of shorter texts from different areas of Cvijić’s scientific work, from the exploration
of karst, glaciation, fluvial relief to anthropogeography and ethnographical studies. The texts often contain transcribed segments, with the intention of literally translating Cvijić’s words, as well as providing a direct testimony of his scientific work and private and social life. In terms of their contents, the texts are intended for the professional audience, but in general they are also understandable to the average educated reader. Finally, references appearing in individual texts are merged into the common list of references given in the last part of the publication.Special issues, no. 9

Review of foreign reception of Jovan Babić’s works
Get PDFIn this paper, the author discusses foreign reception of Jovan Babić’s works,
which turns out to be very much alive and diverse. More precisely, the author
limits himself to a short and very partial review of reception of only two
Babić’s texts that, so far, attracted the most attention. [Projekat

Reception of Jovan Cvijić in Slovenian ethnology
No full textThe paper discusses the reception of the work of Jovan Cvijić in Slovenian
ethnology. Cvijić is considered to be one of the founding fathers of Serbian
ethnology, due in large part to his anthropogeographical orientation that
strongly marked ethnological research in Serbia until the second half of the
20th century. In Slovenian ethnology, the so-called anthropogeographical
school is virtually unknown; however, some of its tenets can be recognized or
were actively applied in research of cultural areas, carried out by
geographers and ethnographers before and after the Second World War when
anthropogeography was considered to be a branch of geography and a discipline
akin to ethnography/ethnology. The author aims to discuss when, for whom and
in what way was Jovan Cvijić direct or indirect reference within the horizon
of Slovenian ethnology. His reception is marked by acknowledging the powerful
influence of his political views and engagement on his scholarship

Les comédies de Jovan Sterija Popović
No full textTHE COMEDIES OF JOVAN STERIJA POPOVIĆ
Jovan Sterija Popović (1806-1856), a Serbian writer born in Voivodina, is very famous in Yugoslavia, especially for his thirteen comédies. In France Popović is unknown, and his works were never translated into French. This book is the first one entirely devoted to Popović's comédies. The first part includes biographical information, defines his place in Serbian literature, and discusses his other works: novels, poems, and historical dramas. The second part is devoted to the genesis of his comédies, and shows how J. S. Popović created this genre in Serbian literature: intertextuality (cultural références, literary antécédents, in particular Molière), and autointertextuality. The third part reviews the eighty characters in his comédies. Their names are examined, and a classification based on identity (falše, destab- ilized, in transition, etc.) as a criterion is proposed. Then their speech is observed: these comédies are a true linguistic 'Tower of Babel'. The fourth part deals with theater techniques: the secondary text (which leads to a discussion of the very notion of 'didascalia'); the main text (dialogue, monologue, and asides); the structures of the action (from exposition to dénouement); the spatial and temporal structures; and lastly the comic dimension with verbal and non-verbal comic devices. The approach is not chronological, but the study reveals the development of J. S. Popović as an author who first of ail focused on his readers, then on his audience, and in his later plays on both.Andjelkovic Sava. Les comédies de Jovan Sterija Popović .

Airbnb Adoption among Students: Insights from Serbia
No full textThis research was conducted to investigate the adoption rates and intents towards Airbnb platform among students in Serbia. A total of 201 students and millennials participated in the research. Findings show that only 59.6% used the services of this platform, mostly 1-2 times, predominantly for international travel. The main reasons include lower price. Respondents believed the accommodation's location and surroundings could threaten their safety, but not their hosts. Students mostly find using the platform fun and modern and are willing to recommend it further. In assessing students' future Airbnb involvement, we
investigated how location, host, and accommodation safety, along with extra costs, lower quality, and complaints, influenced participation. Unexpectedly, location insecurity positively impacts future platform usage, while poor accommodation safety
predictably diminishes it. Our findings highlight the growing popularity of Airbnb among Serbian students for international leisure travel, yet safety and privacy concerns remain. Despite this, most respondents enjoy using Airbnb and intend to continue
