Society of Serbian Literature (Serbian: Дружтво Србске Словесности, ДСС), founded in 19 November 1841, his founding was confirmed by the seal and signature of prince Mihailo Obrenović.[1]

Establishment

In "Novine Srbskim" of 1846, the work program of the Society and its newsletter was published. The magazine "Glasnik Drustva Srpske" slovenosti started to be published in 1847. Within the Gazette, there is a space for: Serbian history and antiquities, geography, state writing (statistics) and Serbian natural history, and works in the field of other sciences. From the second issue, Glasnik regularly published sources, and from the fifth 1855 he began to follow domestic and later foreign publications. During its existence, in the period 1847 - 1863 the Society published 17 issues of the Herald. [2]

The Society of Serbian Literature has published several books and cooperated in lifting the ban on Vuk's spelling. Although as early as 1848 it was requested to abandon the spelling imposed by the provision from 1832, and the editorial board of the newspaper kept the old one, the Society did not do much to improve the language. He started publishing the first texts written in Vuk's language and spelling of Serbian philologist, translator, linguistic historian and lexicographer Đuro Daničić. [2]

The most significant works published in the Gazette are Serbian Historical Monuments of the Venetian Archive, which was prepared by Janko Šafarik in the period 1859 - 1862, {{sfn | Janko Šafarik | 1859 | p = 318}} as well as the chrysostom of Emperor Stefan Dušan Monastery of the Holy Archangel near Prizren and published in 1862. [3] [4]

Termination

Liberals tried to use the Society of Serbian Literature for their theoretical liberalism. [5] The Society on 26 January 1864 had its annual meeting at which they proposed Garibaldi and Hercez as new members of the Society. [6]
