Ljubomir Simović (1935-2025): The poet who did not want to be silent

Academician Ljubomir Simović, one of the greatest modern Serbian poets and playwrights, a man who did not want to remain mute to the reality in which he lived, has passed away. "In the 2014s, the bar 'Šargan' was an island of the rejected on the outskirts of Belgrade, and today the whole of Serbia has become a bar 'Šargan'. A bar full of humiliated people without perspective and hope," Simović told "Vreme" in XNUMX.

Serbian government: The General Staff can collapse

The Government of the Republic of Serbia made a decision on the termination of the status of a cultural property of the General Staff complex. Who cares what SANU, Evropa Nostra, the professional public and the like think. Because, as Seselj said, if Trump's son-in-law is willing to invest money and build a hotel there, why not give them

Equality

More women were admitted to SANA than ever before

With the decision to admit 12 women as corresponding members, including Milena Marković and Vida Ognjenović, it seems that the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts is abandoning the previous practice based on the view that the criteria required for academics are better met by men than women

Personal attitude

One vote is always decisive

A friend reminded me of another archetypal sentence that probably confirms one's own moral credibility: "And let's face it, I'm not a member of any party!". Let's face it, neither am I, but I attribute that to my age, not to any human advantage of mine

In the new issue: Serbia is still a civilized society

"In this society, there are topics and questions that do not have easy and quick answers. The Academy is often called out not only because of that, but also because of some other issues where there are certain frustrations in society, but mostly these are such questions to which there are actually no quick and easy answers, because if there were, they would not ask the Academy"

Only truth remains against power

"Our eternal dilemma is whether an intellectual loses his identity if he offers services to the authorities, that is, whether he then ceases to be an intellectual. This problem was thought to have gone away, but it hasn't. And the sirens that seduce intellectuals are more cunning today than before, the mechanisms are more invisible. And an intellectual, especially one who is no stranger to at least a small dose of cynicism, easily finds an alibi. Today, the chances of becoming a quasi-intellectual are extraordinary."
