	Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Cyrillic alphabet (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-09)
		The Cyrillic alphabet (or azbuka, from the old name of the first letters) is an alphabet used to write six natural Slavic languages (Belarusian, Bulgarian, Macedonian, Russian, Serbian, and Ukrainian) and many other languages of the former Soviet Union, Asia and Eastern Europe.
		The plan of the alphabet is derived from the early Cyrillic alphabet, itself a derivative of the Glagolitic alphabet, a ninth century uncial cursive usually credited to two brothers from Thessaloniki, Saint Cyril and Saint Methodius.
		The theory is further supported by the fact that the Cyrillic alphabet almost completely replaced the Glagolitic in north-eastern Bulgaria as early as the end of the tenth century, whereas the Ohrid Literary School—where Saint Clement worked—continued to use the Glagolitic until the twelfth century.

		Cyrillic was, in fact, the Greek uncial alphabet of that period, complemented by fourteen special letters for Slavonic phonemes which did not exist in Greek.
		His book, A Serbian Dictionary, with a section on grammar was published in 1818, and it laid the foundations for a new type of literary language whose roots were in the speech of country folk and not urban dwellers.
		The influence of the priesthood in Serbian society was on the decline, and on Austrian soil the advances in education broadened the group of those interested in the democratization of culture.

		Serbians use also Latin letters for their language, so appearance of Latin n and m for Cyrillic letters equivalent for Latin p and t make too big problem for them.
		The former, the 'sloped roman' italic is not, as one contributor suggested, 'traditional' in sans serif types in either Latin or Cyrillic typography; rather, it is the common italic in one particular style of sans serif lettering, the so-called geometric or modernist style.
		The resulting forms may or may not be acceptable to Serbian readers, but if they are changed to model the Serbian _cursive_ forms, however rationalised to fit with their companion letters, you no longer have a pure sloped roman.

		His “Serbian Dictionary”, published in Vienna 1818 (along with the appended grammar), was the single most significant work of Serbian literary culture that shaped the profile of Serbian language (and, the first Serbian dictionary and grammar until then).
		In Communist Yugoslavia, Serbian language and terminology were "official" in a few areas: the military, diplomacy, Federal Yugoslav institutions (various institutes and research centres), state media and jurisprudence at Yugoslav level; also, the language in Bosnia and Herzegovina was gradually Serbianized in all levels of educational system and the republic's administration.
		Serbian linguistic imperialism was encouraged by the Communist Party-State, which had replaced the Western concept of Nation-State in the Communist countries or the Eastern Byzantine concept of the Church-State with its Messianic politico-religious Orthodoxy.

	Miroslav Gospel - Facts
		Prior to that fateful year for the Serbian state and the Nemanjić dynasty, in 1190 in Zahumlje ended the reign of Nemanja'a brother Miroslav, whose territory was inherited by the youngest son of the Raška Grand Zhupan, Rastko, until he, too, withdrew to Mt. Athos.
		Since the Miroslav Gospels date from the very beginning of state development and are distinguished by a wealth of painted ornamentation, linguistic complexity and a variety of models, it is not surprising that it aroused scholarly interest as early as the 19th century.
		Since this is the earliest document written in Serbian, it is quite understandable that the Miroslav Gospels were not studied only by art historians and that other aspects besides the painted illustrations, primarily language, were also of interest.

	Windows to the Past - Serbia's Written Heritage
		Though there is a question as to whether Cyril himself actually developed the Cyrillic alphabet, which bears his name, it is certain that the earlier version, called Glagolitic, together with the Cyrillic alphabet was a direct consequence of Christianization and the need to transmit the teachings of the Church to the converted Slavs.

	Gaps in the System
		The case of Russian (and other Cyrillic) versus Serbian and Macedonian [Slavonic] т is celebrated, and an excellent illustration of how Unicode codepoints are Platonic ideals, independent of how they are realised in display.
		Serbian uses as its italic form a glyph that looks like a w with a bar over it; Russian uses a glyph that looks like an m.
		This of course is cold comfort to a Serb right now, since the technologies to tag HTML with language codes (so that the browser knows how to render the given character) are thin on the ground, and the fonts smart enough to adjust their italics according to language are even thinner.

		There’s a feeling that Cyrillic is archaic, old-fashioned, somehow inferior to the “superior” (Western) Roman alphabet, not to mention that it’s associated with nationalism.
		Part of the reason nationalists cherish Cyrillic so much is because large sections of the Serbian liberal left seem to have some sort of irrational hatred of it.
		I simply think we should use Cyrillic because, like you said, we used it until it was brought in by the Communists and entenched by Milošević, and they had all sort of ideas about what’s modern (just look what they did to Belgrade).
