Nikola Bošković
Nikola Bošković (, 1642 – 18 September 1721) was a Republic of Ragusa, Ragusan merchant, whose travels in Ottoman Raška (region), Raška were included in ''Illyricum sacrum''. He is best known as the father of Roger Joseph Boscovich, Roger Joseph Boscovich (Ruđer Bošković). Origin Franjo Rački wrote, based on a manuscript from the Franciscan library in Dubrovnik, that Nikola was the son of a Boško from Orahovo (Orahov Do, near Popovo polje, then Bosnia Eyalet, Ottoman Empire, present-day Bosnia and Herzegovina), and that the family had adopted the surname Bošković after his father. He had a brother, Petar (d. 1724). Šime Ljubić, and later Milenko S. Filipović and Ljubo Mićević, wrote that his father's name was actually Matijaš (or Matija) which could be seen from marital permission which he gave to Nikola. Boško Bošković, father of Nikola Bošković, was mentioned in the document from 1690 ("Bosikus Boscouich de Popouo mihi cancellario optime notus") from whic ...

Brackets
A bracket is either of two tall fore- or back-facing punctuation marks commonly used to isolate a segment of text or data from its surroundings. Typically deployed in symmetric pairs, an individual bracket may be identified as a 'left' or 'right' bracket or, alternatively, an "opening bracket" or "closing bracket", respectively, depending on the directionality of the context. Specific forms of the mark include parentheses (also called "rounded brackets"), square brackets, curly brackets (also called 'braces'), and angle brackets (also called 'chevrons'), as well as various less common pairs of symbols. As well as signifying the overall class of punctuation, the word "bracket" is commonly used to refer to a specific form of bracket, which varies from region to region. In most English-speaking countries, an unqualified word "bracket" refers to the parenthesis (round bracket); in the United States, the square bracket. Various forms of brackets are used in mathematics, with ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Branislav Petronijević
Branislav "Brana" Petronijević (sometimes styled as Petronievics) (Serbian Cyrillic: Бранислав "Брана" Петронијевић; 6 April 1875 – 4 March 1954) was a Serbian philosopher and paleontologist. His major work is the two-volume ''Prinzipien der Metaphysik'' (''Principles of Metaphysics'', Heidelberg, 1904–1911), in which he outlines his original metaphysical system – a synthesis of Baruch Spinoza's monism and Gottfried Leibniz's monadological pluralism into what he called "monopluralism". Influenced by George Berkeley and G.W.F. Hegel, Petronijević held that our immediate experience is the source of basic logical and metaphysical axioms – what he called "empirio-rationalist" epistemology. In the field of palaeontology, Petronijević was the first to distinguish between the genera ''Archaeopteryx'' and ''Archaeornis''. However, most of his taxonomic interpretations were later abandoned.Tischlinger, H. & D. M. Unwin 2004. UV-Untersuchungen des Ber ...

Old Serbia
Old Serbia ( sr, Стара Србија, Stara Srbija) is a Serbian historiographical term that is used to describe the territory that according to the dominant school of Serbian historiography in the late 19th century formed the core of the Serbian Empire in 1346-71. The term does not refer to a defined region but over time in the late 19th century and the first decade of the 20th century it came to include the regions of Raška, Kosovo and Metohija and much of modern North Macedonia. The term Old Serbians ( sr, Старосрбијанци, Starosrbijanci, links=no) were used as designations by Serb authors and later governments for Slavic populations from regions such as Vardar Macedonia. In modern historiography, the concept of Old Serbia as it developed in the 19th century has been criticised as a historical myth, based often on invented or tendentiously interpreted historical events.
