  • Rade MIHALJČIĆ, Gospodar – vladarska titula Ivana Crnojevića, 7-15  Download

SUMMARY: Well known in the languages of all Slavic people, the word gospodar (Lat. Domminus) had several meanings during the Middle Ages. A gospodar could have been the head of a household, the head (elder) of a family or a zadruga (an extended family group), or a Ragusan merchant (whether a member of the aristocracy, the lesser nobility, or an ordinary citizen) During the period of developed feudalism, gospodar was the common name for all members of privileged groups ranging from small landowners to statesmen. It is in this hierarchical framework that the word is found in the law code of Emperor Dušan.

Cyrillic documents from the Middle Ages contain much more information abou the title gospodin than gospodar. The term gospodar was mostly used in a general sense. Although very convenient as a title because of its various meanings, it was hardly accepted by the ideology of the ruling class. On the other hand, powerful feudal lords were attracted by title of foreign origin. That is the reason why transition from gospodar in general sense to gospodar as a ruler’s  title took such a long time. It was officially used for the first time shortly before the end of our Middle Ages, during the reigns of Duke (Herceg) Stjepan Vukčić Kosaca and his son Vladislav. As an independent title it was used for the first time at the end of the Middle Ages, by the house of Crnojević, In signing his name, Ivan Crnojević, used the title gospodar zetski, which was also inscribed on the seal used to certify  official documents.

 

  • Ruža ĆUK, Porodica Stano iz Bara u srednjem veku, 17-25  Download

SUMMARY: This paper, based on the Genealogy of Cingria  ( lt. Genealogia Cingria) and other documents, investigates the history of the Stano family of Dubrovnik during the late medieval and early modern periods. Originally from Bar, Stano Ilic, the family founder, moved to Dubrovnik at the beginning of the 1390s. He and the majority of his descendants acquired wealth and power through trade between Serb lands and the Mediterranean. Stano joined the circle of Antunins, the corporation of Dubrovnik’s most distinguised merchants, shipowners and financers. Most active between the secondandfourth decades of the fifteenth century, the Stano family lived and worked in Dubrovnik for four generations, about 165 years (until 1555), and in Serb lands for two or three more generations.

 

  • Branko BOGDANOVIĆ, Artiljerski materijal u crnogorskoj vojsci od 1800. do 1916., 27-60  Download

SUMMARY: Because of its geostrategic position unique tactical requirements, and modest financial means, Montenegro during the 19th and 20th centuries was not in apposition to keep pace with the rapid development of modern military technology. While Montenegro had acquired a large number of ‘trophy’ weapons of Turkish, Venetian, and French origin in the 18th century which, because of their tremendous size and weight, had not been used on Montenegrin battlefields. It was only in 1853 that Prince Danilo Petrovic obrained from Serbia a battery of4-pind, muzzle loading, riffled mountain cannons (La Hitte M 1863). During the war with Turkey (1876-78), Montenegro obtained  a number of Russian artillery pieces, bought several German ones, and seized more than one Turkish breech-loading Krupp cannon. More artillery of the same type was acquired in Essen in 1886. Until the Balkan Wars, cannon of a similar Krupp design were purchased, so that Montenegro entered the Balkan Wars and World War I with inferior artillery.

 

  • Radoslav RASPOPOVIĆ, O diplomatskim odnosima između Crne Gore i Grčke, 61-71  Download

SUMMARY: In this article, the author reviews the establishment of diplomatic relations between Montenegro and Greece, beginning with the opening of a Greek diplomatic mission in Cetinje in January 1881. In addition to the historical and foreign political dimensions of establishing official relations, the author examines questions concerning the rank and grade of the representatives as well as their obligations and duties. Noteworthy is the fact that the first official Greek representatives in Montenegro were accredited as political agents and general consuls. Their status subsequently changed, and in May 1912, Greece’s diplomatic representation was accorded the rank of legation. The author also pays special attention to the individuals who represented the interests of the Greek government in Montenegro.

SUMMARY: Relative benevolence towards the position of women in Montenegrin Muslim communities began to vanish in the late 19th century during the time of the Abyssinian Caliphate which was characterized by numerous examples of concubinage and indulgent lifestyles. Blamed for the lack of morals and under pressure of local customs and a flexible interpretation of the Koran, women were obligated to cover themselves in public places from head to toe, most often by wearing a hooded outer dress and veil (hijab).

In the twentieth century, traditional Islamic constraints concerning women began to relax. But the emancipation movement that began in Egypt and spread to Turkey and Albania barely touched the Muslim population of Yugoslavia. In Bosnia-Hercegovina, Montenegro, Macedonia and Kosovo, Muslim women were generally excluded from public affairs. Bringing up children, taking care of family members, and tending to housework were the only permitted activities.

With the establishment Communist Yugoslavia at the end of World War II, conditions changed. Promoting gender equality, the Communist Party initiated a campaign  in 1947 aimed at changing the prevailing Muslim dress code for women. In this campaign, a key role was played by Islamic priest and activists of the Antifascist movement of women. The campaign met with considerable early success in and around Berane, Bijelo Polje, and Andrijevica; it encountered more oppositions in Bar, Ulcinj, and Tuzi, whichhad majority Albanian population. By 1953, however, the campaign had largely achieved its goals

 

  • Senka BABOVIĆ-RASPOPOVIĆ, Političko-propagandni rad centralnog pres-biroa u zetskoj banovini i susjedstvu, 91-101  Download

SUMMARY: With the aim of establishing Yugoslav state ideology in the internal life of the Kingdom of Zugoslavia after 1929, significant changes in the internal structure of the Yugoslav state were accompanied by the formation of new institutions for the promotion of the Yugoslav national idea. The creation of the Banovina Zeta ( Montenegro ) with its capital at Cetinje was achieved by adding neighbouring areas to the core Montenegrin oblast. One of the governmental institutions directly involved in promoting the Yugoslav national idea was the Central Press Bureau. For almost ten years, Vuko Mitrovic “civil priority” aspect of the Yugoslav state idea. However, Zeta’s cultural and historical diistinctness, together with the inconsistencies of governmental policies, posed formidable obsticles to national integration.

 

  • Ljubodrag DIMIĆ, Ideologija i kultura u Jugoslaviji 1945-1955, 103-121  Download

SUMMARY: As part of the political left established at the end of the First World War, the Communist Party of Yugoslavia (KPJ) was a party of revolutionary action, which determined its program, working methods, membership and the organization by which it carried out its ideas and spread its influence. From the point of view of maintaining power and continuing revolutionary processes, the party’s ideology occupied a very important place in the country’s social life as a whole. Playing major roles in the formulation of the party’s goals in the cultural sphere were the country’s relative cultural backwardness, and inheritance of the past, as well as the party’s own experiences as an outlawed institution under the previous regime, as well as those acquired during the National Liberation Struggle, i.e., the Second World War, together with the model provided by the First Socialist State, i.e., the Soviet Union. The experience of the National Liberation Struggle and the international circumstances that shaped the Yugoslav revolution had a decisive impact on the wide range of ideas concerning the question of artistic freedom and creativity during the first postwar years. The early stages of the transition to socialism and the conflict with the Communist Information Bureau (Cominform) initially defined the period, which was characterized by slogans such as ‘the theme of the day’ , ‘fighting optimism’, ‘and ‘service to the people.’ As a result of the Cominform conflict, the question of ‘social utility’ in artistic creation was strengthened. Beginning in the autumn of 1949, the KPJ initiated major changes in the socialism that had existed up to that point. It sought and found new perspectives and developed a new type of social organization. It attempted to free itself from inherited layers of Stalinist dogmatism and began to dismantle the stultifying policies of ‘socialist realism’ in the artistic sphere. While breaking with the traditions of Soviet Stalinism, the still dominant KPJ confronted its own bureaucratic structure and so undermined the basis of its own political power.

SUMMARY: It is understandable that riddles –for which it is almost impossible to determine date of origin-cannot be of much help in resolving questions of historical chronology. Even in cases of concrete historical events that are usually well knows to chroniclers of history, Byzantine riddles are usually mute and are therefore practically useless in establishing, evaluating and verifying facts of ‘positive historiography’. On the other hand, Byzantine riddles are of considerable use in researching the spiritual life and mentality of the Byzantine people and should not be altogether neglected
