Jovan Cvijic in the books of the Serbian Geographical Society

Among our scientists, Jovan Cvijic (Loznica, October 12, 1865 - Belgrade, January 16, 1927) stands out by the number, scope, types and content of scientific and professional papers, printed in several languages, in Serbia and abroad. According to a number of indicators, in the scientific and journalistic sphere, until today his work has remained difficult to surpass. He is often and gladly quoted not only in the works of contemporary geographers, but also geologists, historians, ethnologists, urban planners, economists, demographers, sociologists and ecologists. Most of his work is published during his lifetime, but due to its importance, lessons and messages, part of his scientific work, is published post-humously even today. The most important are the Collected Works of Jovan Cvijic, which were published in 14 books from 1987 to 1996 by the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts, the Newspaper-Publishing Working Organization ?Literary Gazette? (Knjizevne novine) and the Institute for Textbooks and Teaching Aids, all from Belgrade. On this occasion, we present the work of Jovan Cvijic published on the pages of the magazine of the Serbian Geographical Society (Glasnik, Posebna izdanja, Atlas, Zemlja i ljudi, Globus). We especially pay attention on the Bulletin (Glasnik), the oldest geographical periodical in Serbia and on the Balkan Peninsula, which was founded by Jovan Cvijic and his associates, and whose content he unreservedly devoted to the last days of his life. Cvijic presented himself to readers through scientific papers, small prologues, reviews of foreign and domestic geographical, ethnographic and geological literature, notes and obituaries.
