description | In this article, the play Sudbina jednog razuma [The Destiny of One’s Reason]
by Jovan Sterija Popović is analysed as displaying a specific continuation
and climax of the debates about Milovan Spasić‘s textbook titled
Zemljeopisanije celog svjeta [The Geography of the Whole World] (1845). More
specifically, the focus of the investigation is placed upon those aspects
of the debates in question which concern the tendencies in building the
scientific register of the Serbian literary language. In this context, I
reach the conclusion that Sterija’s unique sense of humour is adopted as a
means of revealing one complex conception of pseudoscience and science, as
representing two types of thinking activity which are mutually exclusive. In
turn, the article also analyses Jovan Sterija Popović’s views about the
functional differentiation of language regarding its objectives and use, as
well as the particularities of the scientific style of the national
literary language concerning its intellectualisation on the syntactic and
terminological levels. |
