MARKING THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE DEATH OF VUK STEFANOVIĆ KARADŽIĆ

MARKING THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE DEATH OF VUK STEFANOVIĆ KARADŽIĆ

On Thursday, 19th February 2015, Mrs. Ljiljana Simić, representative of Vuk’s Endowment, and writers Gordana Maletić and Božidar Pešev were our guests. We marked two anniversaries – the first one 200 years of publishing “Pismenica serbskoga jezika” and the second 150 years from the death of Vuk Stefanović Karadžić. We started off by a lecture on Vuk and his daughter Mina Karadžić delivered by Damjan Spasojević, a third year student. Then we enjoyed the poems and stories of our guests. Mrs. Simić introduced the new “Danica” to us which is published by Vuk’s Endowment. This time our High school students were present, and in April our Primary school pupils will see what “Danica” for younger children, also published by Vuk’s Endowment, has to offer. Our guest, Gordana Maletić, is one of the editors of this magazine.
