ПОДНЕ СРПСКЕ АВАНГАРДЕ
THE NOON OF SERBIAN AVANT-GARDE

Summary/Abstract: This paper deals with artistic and social ideas of the founder and representative of zenithism in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, i.e. Serbia, Ljubomir Micić, in the light of history of ideas, i.e. sociology of knowledge. Activities of this writer and his fellows published in the journal Zenith are seen as representative for the period of the 1920s for the Serbian avant-garde between the two world wars. Special attention is paid to the ideas of Balkan barbarism, i.e. barbarogenius, to ideological ambivalence of Micić and the zenithists between the western ideas and Slavic and pro-Russian ideas, and to their views on Balkan identity and its relation to Europe and European values.
