RECEPCIJA DELA GRIGORIJA CAMBLAKA U XX VEKU: RAZVITAK SRPSKE BIOGRAFIJE

Abstract

Grigorije Camblak was received in the 20th century criticism as someone who was in eternal exile, an inter-Slavic personality and an adventurer. From downfallen Bulgaria, he came to despot Stefan’s advanced Serbia, becoming the abbot of the Dečani monastery. Pavle Popović, Đorđe Trifunović, Dimitrije Bogdanović and Milan Kašanin measure his literary opus mostly on the basis of Camblak’s work which they themselves determine as the main one - The Life of Stefan Dečanski. Among Grigorije Camblak’s other writings are: Service to Saint King Stephen and Description of the Transfer of the Relics of Saint Petka from Vidin to Serbia, which, together with the Life of Stefan Dečanski, Grigorije compiled in Serbia, Praise to Patriarch Jeftimi, Praise to Metropolitan Cyprian of Kiev, Torture of Saint John the New and Service to Saint John the New.
