“Bibliography of Montenegrin
Personal Bibliographies” by Milorad T. Milović, Library Advisor at the National
Library of Montenegro “Đurđe Crnojević”, was presented on May 12 at the 17th
International Podgorica Book and Education Fair in Podgorica.
Apart from the author, Library
Advisor Slavica Glendža, assistant director for library affairs in the Library,
also spoke at the promotion.
Personal bibliographies are a type
of bibliography that contain the works of only one person. Usually, Milović
points out, the subjects of bibliographic work are personalities of exceptional
importance in a spiritual field or in public life in general and their creation
is often initiated by birth or death anniversaries, jubilees or other important
dates related to the personality that is the subject of research.
“Prior to this Bibliography, only
two bibliographies of Montenegrin personal bibliographies were published, created
by prominent bibliographer Zdravka Radulović. The first bibliography entitled
“Personal Bibliography in Montenegro” was published in the proceedings entitled
“Meetings of bibliographers '95” in Inđija in 1996. This bibliography lists 451
personal bibliographies. The second bibliography was published in “Bibliographic
Herald” in 1997. It is an addition to the previously published one and contains
a total of 78 bibliographic units”, said the author.
The bibliography, it is important
to note, contains 2,394 personal bibliographies of Montenegrin creators concluding
with 2019, and it is based on precisely defined criteria for the selection of
material, as well as its standardized way of processing the selected material.
“Therefore, all personal
bibliographies published in Montenegro, personal bibliographies of Montenegrin
authors published outside Montenegro and personal bibliographies whose authors
are from other countries and which were published outside Montenegro and refer
to Montenegrin creators” were listed, explained Ms. Glendža and added that
based on the list of the number of bibliographic units of this Bibliography, it
can be concluded that truly significant results have been achieved in the
production of this type of publication in Montenegro.
Taking into account the Register
of Authors in the Bibliography, and also by looking at the bibliographic
material, it is clear that the authors of the largest number of personal
bibliographies are: Academician Dušan Martinović, Dobrilo Aranitović, Marija Adžić,
etc.
“In addition to the multi-volume edition
“Portreti”, Dušan Martinović published dozens of personal bibliographies of
important personalities in several Montenegrin magazines. This Bibliography
lists as many as 382 personal bibliographies of Dušan Martinović, of which 14
are special editions, 26 are offprints, while 342 bibliographies are published
in periodicals, anthologies and various memorials, monographs, and collected
works. In addition to Dušan Martinović, the diligent and very prolific bibliographer
Dobrilo Aranitović from Šabac deserves special attention, who has so far
produced an impressive number of personal bibliographies of famous cultural
workers, writers, philosophers, and politicians. This bibliography lists 280 of
Aranitović's personal bibliographies, of which 17 are special editions, 34 are offprints,
while 229 bibliographies were published in Montenegrin and Yugoslav
periodicals, anthologies and special editions”, Milović said.
Milorad-Mijo Milović is also a
respected Montenegrin bibliographer, who published a large number of different
types of bibliographies, a historian by profession, since 1984 he has been
working at NLM as a librarian and bibliographer. He holds the highest title in
the librarian profession, the title of librarian advisor, and he is also the
winner of the highest professional award “Dr. Niko Simov Martinović”.
