SRBOBRAN JE ZABRANJIVAN I ZBOG TESLINE IZJAVE
SRBOBRAN WAS BANNED ALSO BECAUSE OF TESLA’S STATEMENT

Summary/Abstract: Srboran – Serbian paper for politics, peoples enlightenment, and commerce, which was published in Zagreb in Cyrillic, often was banned, and because of that pulled from the selling. Just in 1892. 4 numbers of Srbobran were banned by Austro-Hungarian government, and circulation was destroyed. In that period the magazine, with the great concern, followed the work of the greatest Serbian inventor Nikola Tesla. Tesla already glorified, came to Europe again in the year 1892. (First time was 1889.), so he can hold a lecture in London and Paris. Biggest influence on him were the English scientists, with who he continued the research consultations and the friendly correspondence. Glorified the scientist visited Gospic, Plaski, Raduc, Zagreb, Varazdin, Budapest…While visiting Belgrade he held a lecture in the Grand Lyceum introducing the students and the professors with his 8 year long work in electrical engineering, with the newest findings and research, what he spoke about already 4 months ago in Paris and London. In the paper we analyze the fact that the one printing of Srbobran was banned because of Tesla’s statement, i.e. because of his response to the question proposed by the delegation of Belgrade Municipality and Engineering society in Budapest in the May of 1892.
