Summary: "An Anthology of Jugoslav Poetry; Serbian Lyrics" edited by Dr. B. Stevenson Stanoyevich is a collection of folk poetry composed in the early 20th century. This anthology showcases the rich traditions of Serbian lyrical expression, drawing predominantly from the works of Vuk Karadžić, a pivotal figure in Serbian literature who collected and transcribed folk songs. The collection highlights the emotional depth and varied themes of these poems, covering love, death, nature, and humor, reflecting the cultural heritage of the Serbian people. The beginning of this anthology serves as a preface that contextualizes the significance of folk songs in understanding the national character of a people. It discusses how these poetic expressions encapsulate the sentiments and experiences of rural life, often linked to key life events such as weddings and mourning. Additionally, it outlines the different kinds of songs included in the collection, such as women’s songs, historical ballads, and celebratory verses, demonstrating the emotional range present in Jugoslav poetry. Through this assembly of works, readers are invited to appreciate the lyrical beauty and cultural context of Serbian poetry, signifying its importance in both literature and national identity.
