Nagrada Stevan Sremac Jeleni Rosić

Dan kada je Miz Lili...

Na završnoj sednici žirija za dodelu Nagrade „Stevan Sremac", koja je održana u Beogradu 19. aprila, žiri u sastavu Tijana Spasić, Snežana Božić i Vule Žurić, predsednik, doneo je jednoglasnu odluku da nagradu dobije Jelena Rosić za knjigu priča „Dan kada je Miz Lili postala ono što je oduvek bila", u izdanju beogradskog Arhipelaga.

.

Žiri smatra da zbirka Jelene Rosić nudi originalno narativno uobličenje iskustva susreta s Drugim, koje je uvek i susret sa sopstvenim dubinama i ponorima. Te veze spoljašnjeg i unutrašnjeg, prošlog i budućeg, u pojedincu i svetu koji ga okružuje, najčešće nije lako dokučiti i osvestiti. Suptilne spone, koje nenametljivo funkcionišu među pričama ove zbirke, kao da to potvrđuju.

U užem izboru za nagradu našli su se i romani Svetislava Basare Dugovečnost (Laguna) i Branka Anđića „Play back"(Agora), a na završnoj sednici rasprsavljano je o Basarinom romanu i o knjizi priča Jelene Rosić.

Nakon zanimljive rasprave članovi žirija su se jednoglasno opredelili da ovogodišnji laureat bude Jelena Rosić.

Inače, žiri je ove godine razmatrao preko 70 prispelih romana i zbirki priča.

Nagradu „Stevan Sremac" dodeljuje Niški kulturni centar, a finansira Grad Niš i Ministarstvo kulture Republike Srbije. Nagradu čini plaketa i novčani iznos.

Nagrada će dobitnici biti uručena u maju, tokom trajanja manifestacije „Dani Stevana Sremca", koja se tradicionalno održava u Nišu.

Holy Emperor Constantine and the Edict of Milan

Bishop Atanasije (Yevtich) - Holy Emperor Constantine and the Edict of Milan

by Bishop Athanasius (Yevtich)

In 2013 Christian world celebrates 1700 years since the day when the Providence of God spoke through the holy Emperor Constantine and freedom was given to the Christian faith. Commemorating the 1700 years since the Edict of Milan of 313, Sebastian Press of the Western American Diocese of the Serbian Orthodox Church published a book by Bishop Athanasius Yevtich, Holy Emperor Constantine and the Edict of Milan. The book has 72 pages and was translated by Popadija Aleksandra Petrovich. This excellent overview of the historical circumstances that lead to the conversion of the first Christian emperor and to the publication of a document that was called "Edict of Milan", was originally published in Serbian by the Brotherhood of St. Simeon the Myrrh-gusher, Vrnjci 2013. “The Edict of Milan” is calling on civil authorities everywhere to respect the right of believers to worship freely and to express their faith publicly.

The publication of this beautiful pocket-size, full-color, English-language book, has been compiled and designed by Bishop Athanasius Yevtich, a disciple of the great twentieth-century theologian Archimandrite Justin Popovich. Bishop Athanasius' thought combines adherence to the teachings of the Church Fathers with a vibrant faith, knowledge of history, and a profound experience of Christ in the Church.

In the conclusion of the book, the author states:"The era of St. Constantine and his mother St. Helena, marks the beginning of what history refers to as Roman, Christian Empire, which was named Byzantium only in recent times in the West. In fact, this was the conception of a Christian Europe. Christian Byzantine culture had a critical effect on Europe; Europe was its heir, and then consciously forgot it. Europe inherited many Byzantine treasures, but unfortunately, also robbed and plundered many others for its own treasuries and museums – not only during the Crusades, but during colonial rule in the Byzantine lands as well. We, the Orthodox Slavs, received a great heritage of the Orthodox Christian East from Byzantium. Primarily, Christ’s Gospel, His faith and His Church, and then, among other things, the Cyrillic alphabet, too."
