NLM “Đurđe Crnojević” will once again mark
April 23 - World Book and Copyright Day, in a slightly changed environment due
to the current situation with the COVID 19 virus.
On the occasion of marking the 700th
anniversary of the death of the great Italian poet and one of the greatest
names in world literature - Dante Alighieri, the Library has prepared an online
presentation of the most significant copies of the “Divine Comedy” in its
holdings, in the form of two video presentations and photographs of editions with
valuable illustrations and ornaments. Due to its universal messages, Dante's
literary work is part of the world's literary and cultural heritage, and
various events are organized in his honor in Italy and around the world in
2021.
The funds of our National Library contain
valuable and rare editions of “Divine Comedy”, so this is a unique opportunity
to present them to the general public, as well as significant critical works on
the most important poem of the Middle Ages and Dante himself. The
edition published in Milan in 1908, illustrated with drawings by the great
Italian artists Michelangelo, Raphael, Vasari… stands out for its beauty, and
the work published in Naples in 1863 is also considered an edition of great
value. As for the other library
materials, we will mention a postcard showing Dante's birth house in Florence
(Casa ove abitò Dante Alighieri), published in Milan in 1915. Domestic edition worth mentioning is the
translation of “Divine Comedy”, published in 1910 in Kotor, under the title
“Divna gluma”.
The Library has prepared a presentation of the
most important editions of “Divine Comedy” in its holdings in the form of two
video presentations and a selection of photographs that are available at
following links:
In addition to this event, the Library will provide
new memberships for free in the period from 7 am to 7 pm on April 23. There
will be free books for pupils and students. These are Library’s surplus books
which are from various fields. All of this will be organized in strict
compliance with the prescribed measures for protection against COVID19 virus.
