FORGOTTEN WRITTEN SIMEON ŽIKIĆ FROM THE EASTERN SERBIA TERRITORY ACCORDING TO ROMANIA AND BULGARIA

Summary/Abstract: Serbian literary historiography in previous research has prevented the formation of a proto Simeon Zikić (1878-1964) in the area of Eastern Serbia at the end of the 19th and in the first half of the 20th century. He left behind, mainly in the handwritten legacy, several works: three novels (Govor srca, Na svome poslu, Za ukazom), two books of narratives (Parohijske slike i prilike, Teška vremena), a book of discussions and articles (Pastirska reč) and an extensive autobiographical and memoir book (Moji memoari). All of these texts are mostly thematically related to the life of the Timok region of Eastern Serbia and the bordering Serb region towards Romania and Bulgaria in the last third of the 19th and early four decades of the 20th century, while in the manuscript of the memoir, a noteworthy place was also given to the description of life in Russia, where he studied from 1897. to 1905. Thanks to the textual work of Vladana Stojadinović, all these manuscripts were published in the Edict of the “Zaveštanja” of the National Library “Njegoš” from Knjaževac from 2010. to 2015, and in 2017. a collection of works was also published Sima Žikić, svedok vremena. In this way, a literary writer finally included in the serbian literary historiography of Eastern Serbia into equal parts of the serbian literature.
