Summary
Marija Golubović: Russian emigration in the musical life of interwar Belgrade
Dr. Marija Golubović's scientific monograph represents a significant contribution to Serbian musicology, as well as social and cultural history. It should be emphasized that the great value of this scientific monograph consists of the used Russian émigré periodicals, which, due to the Second World War, have been preserved in their entirety in only a few European libraries. On the basis of such rich material, clearly written and critically processed, Dr. Marija Golubović's research deals with new nuances of Russian-Serbian influences. With its research, the maturity of the analysis and the breadth of the material covered, this book represents a new scientific breakthrough in the knowledge of the social life and cultural climate of the interwar Yugoslav capital. With such an approach, the monograph significantly contributes to the knowledge of Russian-Serbian musical and, in general, cultural ties in the 20th century. Therefore, it will be essential reading for anyone who wants to deepen their knowledge of the cultural and social history of Belgrade, Serbia and the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, as well as the Russian musical influences that shaped Serbian culture.
