Summary

Svetlana Slapšak: Kupusara

I started working with cabbage relatively late, although the impetus for it appeared very early, at the very beginning of my pursuit of science. Forty-five years ago, in the second year of classical studies at the Faculty of Philosophy in Belgrade, the professor of historical grammar of Indo-European languages Ljiljana Crepajac (with whom I later got my master's and doctorate) invited me to help a retired professor and academic by reading at his home once or more a week.
Milan Budimir was blind. He lost his sight when he was twenty-five years old, when he lived in inhumane conditions in a camp in Hungary, during the First World War.

He was born in Mrkonjić Grad, and studied at the gymnasium in Sarajevo. It was the time of Austro-Hungarian rule. Budimir was excellent in mathematics. Among other things, he helped another high school student, Gavril Princip, in private mathematics lessons. When he graduated, he applied for a scholarship to study in Vienna, but he didn't get mathematics, which he wanted, but classical studies. Studying and living in what was probably the most exciting city in the world at the time was intertwined with Yugoslav and socialist activism – both of which meant planning the destruction of existing politics and the world in which he lived. In Vienna in 1910, he saw the dead Laza Kostić, in the sanatorium where he died. Serbian students were invited to pay their respects before the poet's body was taken to Sombor for burial, and the poorest among them, according to the will, was supposed to receive the poet's suit. The dead poet with a well-preserved body (Kostić exercised and ran all his life) left a deep impression on young Budimir: he saw him as Dionysus before his rebirth. Many years later, he wrote a lucid essay about some of Kostić's hard-to-understand verses.
