Tomislav Ladan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Ladan's only novel, Bosanski grb ("Bosnian coat of arms") (1975) is a postmodernist fiction written as a combination of Rabelaisian linguistic feast and a treatise on the historical destiny of Croats in central Bosnia. Ladan is now the director of the same institute and editor-in-chief of an eight-language parallel dictionary. Croatian identity, Ladan worked intermittently as a private tutor, translator and journalist — until the Croatian doyen of belles letters, Miroslav Krleža, found him a job in Lexicographic Institute in Zagreb, Croatia. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Tomislav_Ladan

All about Croatian language - RecipeLand.com Reference library Monumental grammar authored by pre-eminent fin de siècle Croatian linguist Tomislav Maretić (Grammar and stylistics of Croatian or Serbian language) and dictionary by Broz and Iveković (Croatian dictionary) temporarily fixed the elastic (grammatically, syntactically, lexically) standard of this hybrid language. In the 1920s and the 1930s, the lexical, syntactical, orthographical and morphological characteristics of the Serbian language were officially prescribed for Croatian textbooks and general communication. Karadžić's influence on Croatian standard idiom was only one of the reforms for Croats, mostly in some aspects of grammar and orthography; many other changes he made to Serbian were already present in Croatian. www.recipeland.com /encyclopaedia/index.php/Croatian_language

cooltech.iafrica.com tech news The perils of separation surgery Ladan and Laleh were joined at the head and shared the blood supply to their brains— a so-called craniophagus conjunction, which occurs only in about one in 50 cases and is awesomely complex. The tragic deaths of Ladan and Laleh Bijani in an operating theatre in Singapore highlight the daunting challenge of separating conjoined twins— an operation where the surgeon's courage is as high as the success rate is low. Siamese infants happen when an embryo starts to split into identical twins after conception, but for some reason the separation process stops by the end of the second week and the foetus continues to develop, growing into two babies that are fused together. cooltech.iafrica.com /technews/252030.htm   (566 words)

Guardian Unlimited Special reports Marjorie Wallace: The tragedy of the the Bijani sisters Ladan and Laleh Bijani, apparently cheerful and psychologically robust, did not seem to be tortured by the same distortions of feeling and thinking.
