Српскохрватски језик се некада изучавао на универзитетима у више од 30 земаља света, а данас се српски језик као самостални студијски програм учи у само 12 градова у Европи. Из године у годину смањује се број лектората српског језика или се услед недостатка наставника постављају лектори хрватског или босанског језика. Француска и Италија само су неке од држава у којима се број лектората српског језика смањио, а укинути су у Сиднеју, Келну, Салцбургу и Гранади. Једини изузетак су Сједињене Америчке Државе, где је интересовање чак повећано, али се на универзитетима у Америци српски учи у оквиру БХС језика (босански, хрватски, српски).

Bilo je to veče koje će se pamtiti. U epicentru svetskog džeza - Ginič Vilidžu na Menhetnu, džez-pijanista i kompozitor mlađe generacije, Dimitrije Vasljević održao je 11.. oktobra solistički koncert, i malo je reći – oduševio je publiku.

Gostima okupljenim u „Tenri“ kulturnom centru u Njujorku, koji su usled interesovanja koje je premašilo kapacitet sale, bili smeštani i na fotelje izvučene iz obližnjih kancelarija ili su strpljivo stajali u uglovima, Dimitrije se najpre predstavio originalnom kompozicijom „Elipsis” (“Ellipsis”) koja je dala ton čitavoj večeri.

Emmanuel

The Only Begotten and Firstborn among Many Brethren

by Bishop Athanasius Yevtich

In Emmanuel, the second anthology of Bishop Athanasius' articles to appear in English, His Grace explores themes of Orthodox Christology, Soteriology, Ecclesiology, and Gnoseology. How can we know Who God is? How can we know who we are, as human persons created in His image and likeness? How can we become one with Him? Bishop Athanasius examines these and other foundational questions in depth in this volume, drawing from a wealth of Scriptural and patristic sources. In discussing diverse theological subjects, he always returns to his overarching theme: the communion that man can have with God through Jesus Christ the God-man, within Christ's Church and above all in the Holy Eucharist. His exquisite and unique way of engaging the reader in mutual dialogue, with the living Eucharistic experience permeating his every thought, instills in the reader a burning desire for that communion.
