"Краљевска српска основна школа Сијаринска (за арнаутску децу)"
"Краљевска српска основна школа Сијаринска (за арнаутску децу)"
The primary school in village Sijarina began operating in 1898. Its task was to educate the Albanian children. The reasons for setting up the school were various, but not solely educative. First and foremost, parallel to attaining independence in 1878 Serbia also assumed the international obligation stipulated by the Berlin Treaty to observe the minority rights of its proper nonorthodox population. That affected, among others, the Albanian Muslim population of the Vranje district for whom a school building and a mosque were constructed in Sijarina in 1882 and donated by King Milan Obrenovic. On the other hand, Serbia faced the brigand armed attacks of its yesterday’s subjects, mostly Albanians, who, fleeing Serbia made homes in the Kosovo vilayet along the Serbian border. This was another reason to build a mosque and a school so as to neutralize as best as possible the effect of the Albanian assaults among Albanian population which stayed on to live in Serbia. Third and probably most important reason was the complicated Serb-Albanian relations in the Kosovo vilayet and the terror that Albanians and their rulers imposed over the Serbian population. In order to mitigate at least to some extent the consequences of terror and in the framework of national policy in Old Serbia and Macedonia of defending the Serbian population in the area, communication was established with the Albanian rulers in Kosovo. The opening of the school in Sijarina could accordingly be regarded as an element of rapprochement with the Albanians and their rulers. Finally the Serbian rulers had a plan to strengthen the Serbian mind set among Albanian children and their parents through Serbian education system and to gradually assimilate them in Serbian society. This plan proved unrealistic, the school operated badly or not at all and the Albanian population made evident that it is not a fertile soil for spreading loyalty to the Serbian state.
"Сиротиње кудељнице" и баштинице
"Сиротиње кудељнице" и баштинице
Official recording of the Christian widow as taxpayer, paying the decreased ispençe by 6 akçe, the so-called widow’s tax (resm-i bîve), represents a custom having already existed in the earliest dated registers of the Ottoman European provinces. The edict issued by Mehmed the Conqueror clearly stated that this tax was to be imposed only to those widows not possessing lands, i.e. those indigent women who earned a living by spinning wool, flax and hemp. These women belonged to the most impoverished stratum of the Ottoman society, and due to this have they enjoyed the particular protection on the part of the local community as well as the tax exemptions. Apart from the widows, taxpayers of the widow’s tax, the widows, owners or co-owners of the real estates – baština - have also been officially recorded in the detailed registers (mufassal). Baština represented hereditary property on the mîrî land, with the precisely established obligations, whose owner had the right to sell it, donate or bequeath to whom he wished. The new owner would, upon the takeover of the baština, take the obligations concerning the estate onto himself likewise. The tax was collected from baština, as well as from the real estates, which were given under tapu to the hereditary tenure of the re‘aya household (hâne). The only difference was that these real estates put under tapu could not be sold nor bought, but stayed in the possession of the families as long as they were able to cultivate them. On the contrary, the sipâhî would give them to whom he preferred. The widows, owners of the baštinas, did not pay the widow’s tax since they had lands in their possession and had thus been treated as taxpayers of the total, and not decreased, amount of the ispençe, i.e. 25 instead of 6 akçe. They were legally assigned to the category the entire family household - of the house (hâne), that is, to the class of the male taxpayers. Due to this, the notion of them is not always noticeable in the Ottoman registers, since the summary registers (icmâl), containing only the enumeration of «hâne», «mücerred» and «bîve» made note of the widows–owners of the baštinas under the category of «hâne».
A propos des concepts d’Europe, d’Orient et d’Occident chretien au Moyen Age et de l’identite europeenne de la Serbie medievale
A propos des concepts d’Europe, d’Orient et d’Occident chretien au Moyen Age et de l’identite europeenne de la Serbie medievale
L’auteur étudie les concepts d’Europe, d’Occident et d’Orient chrétien au Moyen Age, à partir d’une relecture des oeuvres de deux éminents médiévistes contemporains Jacques le Goff et Sima Ćirković. Il se dégage de cette relecture une plus grande sensibilité des sources médiévales serbes à la dimension précise, spatiale de ces concepts par rapport à une valeur plutôt exclusive, religieuse et culturelle qui y est attachée dans l’Occident chrétien et qui aboutit souvent au rejet de l’Orient.
About Eastern and Western Panslavism (In The Xix-Th and The Beginning of The Xx-Th Century)
About Eastern and Western Panslavism (In The Xix-Th and The Beginning of The Xx-Th Century)
The teaching of the Slavophiles and Pan-Slavism are the ideas which for quite a long time have attracted the attention of scholars of the Russian and Slavic cultural, philosophical and political thought.1 In the XIX-th century in lexicography, in West European journalism in particular and later on in science Pan-Slavism was given several meanings. It is, actually, a stratified research problem Although the political aspect of this phenomenon cannot be denied, particularly in some periods, it should be born in mind that Pan-Slavism is actually a complex cultural and philosophical system, which, in addition to its political, also has its scientific, literary, social, philosophical and religious aspect.
Aнтим Зепос, ужичко-ваљевски митрополит 1802-1814
Aнтим Зепос, ужичко-ваљевски митрополит 1802-1814
In the year 1802, Antim Zepos, the former protosingel of the Mitropoly of Heraclion, got appointed metropolitan of Užice and Valjevo. Antim was born in 1762, on the island of Myconos. He arrived to the Mitropoly of Užice and Valjevo shortly after his appointment. The seat was situated at Šabac. Metropolitan Antim undertook his spiritual mission among the body of believers as well as clergy during the usurpation of power on behalf of the janicars in the Belgrade Pashaluk, where the eparchy was located. In 1804, when the First Serbian Uprising broke out, Antim was in Šabac, where the slaughter of the Christian population took place. Antim managed to leave Šabac through mediation of Stratimirović, metropolitan of Karlovci, and soon after joined the Serbian rebels via the Habsbourg Monarchy. Until 1806, he actively participated in the Serbian assembly system, as well as in strivings concentrated upon inciting the believers to join the rebels. In early 1806, his attempts to reach the peaceful capitulation of the garrison of Šabac through mediation in negotiation process failed. At the aftermath of this event he fled for the Habsbourg Monarchy and moved along with his relatives and monks to the Monastery of Bešenovo, after a brief sojourn in Sremska Mitrovica. He was heavily hit by scorbutus during 1807 and 1808. He got amnestied for his previous actions by the Osmanic authorities and the Ecumenical Patriarchate. At that time, his contacts with the leading rebels became less frequent. In 1812, the plan proposed by Karađorđe, according to which he was to be nominated metropolitan of the entire Serbia failed, since he would thus have traspassed the ecclesiastical canons and got deposed of his rank as well as of his eparchy. After the uprising broke down, Antim officially remained in the function of metropolitan of Užice and Valjevo and held his duty until October 1814, when he submitted his resignation.
Biste de Primutis, которски властелин (XIV век)
Biste de Primutis, которски властелин (XIV век)
Biste Primuti was a capable and successful merchant. He traded primarily with people from Kotor, Dubrovnik, Serbia, and Venice. He accumulated significant wealth, which he invested in the real estate in Kotor, Serbia, and Dubrovnik. He traded mostly in metals, especially copper. Due to his business capabilities, he acquired reputation and wealth, which enabled him to take part in diplomatic and other affairs in Serbia, at the court of the Serbian King Stefan Dečanski. One of the most prominent members of the court of the King Stefan Dečanski was the first Kotor citizen who administered the whole King’s possession, “the King’s house”. With Stefan Dečanski’s departure, Bista’s political career in Serbia ended, but not his business affairs.
Bulgarian-Serbian Marital Diplomacy from the End of 13th to the Beginning of 14th Century
Bulgarian-Serbian Marital Diplomacy from the End of 13th to the Beginning of 14th Century
The article deals with marital agreements that had a bearing on Bulgarian¬Serbian foreign policy relations between the 1280s and the beginning of the 1320s. There are five such agreements. Three are connected with the Bulgarian capital of Turnovo: the marriage of Milutin and Anna, the daughter of Tsar Georgi I Terter; the marriage of Theodora, the daughter of King Smilets (1292–1298) and Stefan, future King Stefan Dečanski, the son of Milutin; and the marriage project between the widow of Smilets and Milutin himself. The other two are the result of Serbia’s relations with the north¬western Bulgarian city of Vidin: the marriage of Shishman with the daughter of Dragoš, the grand župan of Milutin and the marriage of Mihail Shishman with Anna/Neda, Milutin’s daughter.
Constantine Porphyrogenitus and The Ragusan Authors Before 1611
Constantine Porphyrogenitus and The Ragusan Authors Before 1611
The work of Constantine Porphyrogenitus De administrando imperio (DAI) was first edited by Johannes Meursius in 1611.1 The title of the work cannot be considered quite appropriate, since it is not authorial, but given to it by its first editor, who based himself on its introduction.2 It is interesting that the learned humanists of the sixteenth century did not know this work, although two copies of DAI had been made between 1509 and 1529. The only exceptions in this respect were some Ragusan authors, who will be considered in the following discussion. But before we enter into an analysis of the use of the material from DAI by the Ragusan authors, we should say something about the fate of the known manuscripts of this work, for tracing their trajectories might give us some idea of how these writers came to the information contained in it.
