Er Srbija » Air Serbia | 5 Reč dobrodošlice Welcome message On 26th October, 2023, we are commemorating 10 years since the Serbian national airline was rebranded as Air Serbia and received its new visual identity. Our entire efforts over the past decade have been focused on improving our services, developing the fleet and expanding the network. Air Serbia today flies to more than 80 scheduled and charter destinations across Europe, the Mediterranean, North America, Asia and Africa, while our fleet consists of wide-body Airbus A330-200 aircraft and narrow-body Airbus A320 family, as well as turboprop ATR 72-600 aircraft for regional flights. Every day at Air Serbia is special, but only some become part of history. One such day came on 23rd June 2016, when we re-established direct flights between Belgrade and New York after a 25-year hiatus, thus becoming the only airline in the wider Balkan region to offer a direct service to the U.S. We opened another new business chapter in our operations on 9th December 2022, with the launch of direct flights between Belgrade and Tianjin, in the People's Republic of China. Air Serbia was then one of only a few European airlines providing direct flights to this Asian giant. We fly to Tianjin today, while we plan to launch services to other important Chinese cities in the near future. The Air Serbia service to Chicago, representing our third long-haul destination and the second destination in North America, was launched on 17th May 2023, after a break of more than 30 years. Since its inception, this service has proved successful and useful for passengers, and we are proud to have contributed significantly to improving business links, tourism, and all other connections between Serbia and the U.S.. The coronavirus pandemic hit the entire world and grounded air travel for a brief period. During that time, Air Serbia placed its resources at the disposal of the Serbian state and people. Our aircraft transported hundreds of tons of much-needed medical equipment and material to Serbia, while we also worked in partnership with government bodies and organisations to conduct numerous special flights for over 10,000 people who’d been left stranded abroad by the pandemic. With over 1,400 employees, the youngest fleet in the region, a growing network of destinations and a clearly defined sustainable growth strategy, Air Serbia is entering its second decade of operations ready to adapt to any market changes, operate at a profit, and constantly improve its services in the interest of passengers. Cherishing your memories for 10 years! Thank you for your trust. JIRI Marek, CEO Air Serbia Dragi putnici, Dear passengers, Oktobar 2023. October 2023 Jirži Marek Jiri Marek Generalni direktor Er Srbija / Air Serbia CEO Dana 26. oktobra 2023. godine obeležavamo deset godina kako srpska nacionalna avio-kompanija posluje pod imenom Er Srbija i sa novim vizuelnim identitetom. U protekloj deceniji sve naše snage bile su usmerene na unapređenje usluge, razvoj flote i širenje mreže. Er Srbija danas leti do više od 80 redovnih i čarter-destinacija u Evropi, na Mediteranu, Severnoj Americi, Aziji i Africi, a našu flotu čine širokotrupni avioni tipa „erbas A330200“, uskotrupni avioni iz porodice „erbas A320“ i turboelisni avioni ATR 72-600 za regionalne letove. U Er Srbiji svaki dan je poseban, ali u istoriju su ušli samo neki dani. Jedan od njih bio je i 23. jun 2016. godine, kada smo posle pauze od četvrt veka ponovo uspostavili direktne letove između Beograda i Njujorka, i tako postali jedina avio-kompanija u širem regionu Balkana koja ima direktne letove do Sjedinjenih Američkih Država. Novo poglavlje u našem poslovanju otvorili smo 9. decembra 2022. godine uvođenjem direktnih letova između Beograda i Tjenđina u Narodnoj Republici Kini. U tom trenutku Er Srbija je bila jedna od samo nekoliko avio-kompanija u Evropi koje su imale direktne letove do te azijske zemlje. Danas letimo u Tjenđin, a u skorijoj budućnosti planiramo da uspostavimo letove i do drugih važnih kineskih gradova. Linija do Čikaga, naše treće prekookeanske destinacije i druge u Severnoj Americi, uspostavljena je 17. maja 2023. godine, posle više od 30 godina pauze. Od samog početka ta ruta pokazala se uspešnom i korisnom putnicima, i ponosni smo što značajno doprinosi boljim poslovnim, turističkim i svim drugim vezama između Srbije i Sjedinjenih Američkih Država. Pandemija korona virusa uticala je na ceo svet i nakratko zaustavila putnički avio-saobraćaj. U tom trenutku Er Srbija je sve svoje resurse stavila na raspolaganje državi i narodu Srbije. Našim avionima u zemlju je dopremljeno više stotina tona prekopotrebne medicinske opreme i materijala, a u saradnji sa državnim organima i organizacijama realizovali smo i brojne specijalne letove za više od 10.000 ljudi koje je pandemija zatekla van matičnih zemalja. Sa preko 1.400 zaposlenih, najmlađom flotom u regionu, rastućom mrežom destinacija i jasno definisanom strategijom održivog razvoja, Er Srbija otvara novu deceniju poslovanja, spremna da se prilagodi svakoj promeni na tržištu, da posluje profitabilno i konstantno unapređuje uslugu u interesu putnika. Deset godina čuvamo vaše uspomene! Hvala na poverenju. Jirži Marek, Generalni direktor Er Srbija

8 | Er Srbija » Air Serbia U fokusu / In focus nacionalna avio-kompanija slavi rođendan Er Srbija: Prvih Air Serbia: the 2013. 2016. Godine 2013. tadašnja srpska nacionalna avio-kompanija bila je suočena sa brojnim izazovima. Posle višegodišnje stagnacije bila je neophodna kompletna transformacija. Tako je 1. avgusta 2013. godine, uz snažnu podršku Vlade Republike Srbije, potpisan ugovor o strateškom partnerstvu sa kompanijom „Etihad ervejz“, a 26. oktobra iste godine rođena je Er Srbija. Prvi let između Beograda i Abu Dabija obavljen je avionom „erbas A319“, koji je dobio ime „Novak Đoković“. Već na taj način Er Srbija je želela da pokaže svoj pobednički mentalitet. Kompletno je obnovljena flota, proširena mreža destinacija, uspostavljeni su efikasni procesi i implementirani novi savremeni sistemi. Beograd–Njujork Posle pauze od četvrt veka, u junu 2016. godine, ponovo su uspostavljeni letovi između Beograda i Njujorka. Er Srbija tako postaje jedina avio-kompanija u širem regionu Balkana koja ima direktne letove do Sjedinjenih Američkih Država. Belgrade - new york After a break lasting a quarter of a century, flights between Belgrade and New York were re-established in June 2016. Air Serbia thereby became, and remains, the only airline in the wider Balkan region providing direct flights to the United States of America. Back in 2013, the then Serbian national airline faced numerous challenges. After many years of stagnation, it was necessary to carry out a complete transformation of the company. And so it was that on 1st August, 2013, with the strong support of the Government of the Republic of Serbia, an agreement on a strategic partnership was signed with company Etihad Airways, and Air Serbia was born on 26th October of that same year. The inaugural flight between Belgrade and Abu Dhabi was operated using an Airbus A319 which received the name “Novak Đoković”. Air Serbia wanted to thereby display its winning mentality. The fleet was renewed completely and the network of destinations was expanded, with effective processes established and new, modern systems implemented. Za manje od godinu dana u flotu je uvedeno deset aviona tipa „erbas“, osam letelica tipa A319 i dve letelice tipa A320. Prvi put u istoriji avionima nacionalne avio-kompanije počinju da upravljaju i žene. In less than a year, the fleet had been joined by ten Airbus aircraft – eight A319 aircraft and two A320s. The planes of the country’s national airline also began being piloted by women for the first time in history. 10 10
Air Serbia » Er Srbija | 9 the national airline is celebrating its birthday deset godina first ten years 2017. 2019. Er Srbija je u maju 2017. godine ispisala novu stranicu u svojoj istoriji kada je uzleteo prvi avion sa kompletno ženskom posadom. Od svog osnivanja do danas u Er Srbiji polovinu zaposlenih čine žene. Posle perioda transformacije 2019. godine započinje period rasta kompanije, a Er Srbija je te godine prevezla rekordnih 2,81 milion putnika. Godine 2019. kompanija je prvi put saobraćala sa sva tri međunarodna aerodroma u Srbiji –„Nikola Tesla Beograd“, „Konstantin Veliki“ u Nišu i „Morava“ u Kraljevu. Uvedene su ukupno 23 nove destinacije sa tri pomenuta aerodroma. Air Serbia inscribed another new page in its history in May 2017, with the departure of the first plane of the national carrier to be staffed by an all-female crew. Since its establishment and to this day, fully half of Air Serbia’s employees have been women. Following the period of the company’s transformation, Air Serbia’s period of growth began in 2019 – the year when it transported a record 2.81 million passengers. It was also in 2019 that Air Serbia first operated from all three international airports in Serbia: Belgrade Nikola Tesla, Niš Constantine the Great and Kraljevo’s Morava Airport. A total of 23 new destinations from the three airports were introduced. 50% 50% zaposlenih čine žene of employees are women 2,81 milion putnika 2.81 million passengers
10 | Er Srbija » Air Serbia U fokusu / In focus 2020. 2021. U martu 2020. godine započetu ekspanziju privremeno prekida pandemija korona virusa i najveća kriza u istoriji civilnog avio-saobraćaja. Kada je praktično cela planeta stala, Er Srbija je sve svoje resurse stavila na raspolaganje državi i narodu Srbije. U periodu od 18. marta do 27. maja 2020. godine, tokom vanrednog stanja, obavljeno je na desetine specijalnih letova – repatrijacionih i evakuacionih – preko 10.000 ljudi prevezeno je u tom periodu i obavljene su desetine kargo-letova kojima je u našu zemlju dopremljeno više stotina tona medicinske opreme i materijala. Od 2021. godine počinje period oporavka. Flota Er Srbije osnažena je sa dva nova aviona za daleke destinacije. „Erbas A330-200“, sa imenom i likom Nikole Tesle, stigao je u flotu Er Srbije u junu 2021. godine, dok je avion istog tipa, ali sa imenom i likom Mihajla Pupina u Beograd stigao u novembru 2022. godine. The expansion that had been launched was temporarily suspended in March 2020, with the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, causing the biggest crisis in the history of civil aviation. With the entire planet having practically ground to a halt, Air Serbia placed all its resources at the disposal of the Serbian state and people. During the period of the declared state of emergency, from 18th March to 27th May 2020, dozens of special flights were operated – for repatriation and evacuation purposes – transporting over 10,000 people, while dozens of special cargo flights also brought several hundred tons of medical equipment and materials to our country. The post-lockdown recovery period began in 2021. The Air Serbia fleet was fortified with the arrival of two new planes intended for longhaul destinations. The Airbus A330200 sporting the name and image of Nikola Tesla joined the Air Serbia fleet in June 2021, while its sister aircraft, bearing the name and likeness of Mihajlo Pupin, arrived in Belgrade in November 2022.
Air Serbia » Er Srbija | 11 2022. 2023. Srbija–Kina Dana 9. decembra 2022. godine ka Tjenđinu u Narodnoj Republici Kini iz Beograda je poleteo let Er Srbije, čime je nacionalna avio-kompanija posle 22 godine pauze ponovo uspostavila direktne komercijalne letove do te azijske zemlje. Komercijalni let za Kinu bio je kruna uspeha Er Srbije u 2022. godini. Bila je to prva godina od izbijanja pandemije korona virusa u kojoj je kompanija imala pozitivan neto i operativni rezultat, ostvarivši profit od 21 milion evra, bez ijednog evra državnih subvencija. Dana 17. maja 2023. godine sa beogradskog aerodroma, posle više od 30 godina pauze, ponovo je uspostavljen avio-saobraćaj između Beograda i Čikaga. Bio je to ne samo važan dan za srpsku nacionalnu avio-kompaniju, za aerodrom Nikola Tesla, za Srbiju i Beograd, nego i za čitav region Zapadnog Balkana. Serbia - china The first Air Serbia flight bound for the city of Tianjin in the People’s Republic of China departed from Belgrade on 9th December 2022, with which the Serbian flag carrier re-established direct commercial flights with this Asian giant for the first time after a break of 22 years. The introduction of this commercial flight to China represented the crowning glory of Air Serbia’s achievements in 2022. That year was also the first since the outbreak of the pandemic that had ended with the company recording positive net and operational results, generating profits of 21 million euros, and doing so without a single euro of state subsidies. After a break of more than 30 years, air traffic was re-established between Belgrade and Chicago on 17th May 2023. That was an important day not only for the Serbian national airline and Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport, for Serbia and Belgrade, but also for the entire region of the Western Balkans. nove destinacije 22 new destinations 22
Zašto volite avione? Why do you like planes? Na letu On board U avionu vreme i mesto prestaju da postoje / Aboard a plane, time and space cease to exist Ko je Vladimir Vladimir Aleksić je rođen 1977. godine u Zrenjaninu. Diplomirao je glumu na Akademiji umetnosti u Novom Sadu. Neposredno posle završetka Akademije seli se u Italiju, na poziv italijanskog pozorišta „Motus“, sa kojim i danas sarađuje. Sa njima je uradio niz predstava, a 2004. godine „Rooms“ dobija nagradu za najbolji pozorišni projekat u Italiji. U Srbiju se vraća 2008. godine, od kada je aktivan kao filmski i televizijski glumac. Godine 2016. uradio je svoju prvu autorsku predstavu, realizovao projekat „Teatar u Filharmoniji – Pisma kompozitora“, producent je, koautor i koreditelj predstave „Lepa Brena Project“, kao i autor i producent predstave „Putovanje izvan središta Zemlje“, koja se igrala i u avionu... 12 | Er Srbija » Air Serbia – Volim sva iskustva koja dolaze sa letenjem. Iz nekog razloga mi je veoma uzbudljivo poletanje, onaj momenat kad znam da napuštam površinu zemlje i ubrzavam se ka nebu. Takođe, volim da gledam kroz prozor i da vidim tu zemlju ispod sebe. Biti 9.000 metara visoko u vazduhu i kretati se brzinom od 800 km na sat za mene je veoma uzbudljivo i prilično neverovatno. Ne mogu da kažem da se radujem turbulencijama, ali kada se dese, imam osećaj kao da sam u nekom zabavnom parku. Kada letite, prkosite gravitaciji i taj osećaj oslobađa... Šta uvek nosite sa sobom na letu? – Često se umirim i udubim u svoje misli dok satima sedim na svom sedištu. Mašti pustim na volju, to je moj prostor slobode u kojem je sve moguće, a vreme i mesto više ne postoje. Sa sobom zato ne nosim ništa naročito, samo knjigu i ajped, ako poželim da čitam ili odgledam film ili seriju. “I like all experiences that come with flying. For some reason, taking off is very exciting for me; that moment when I know I’m abandoning the Earth’s surface and speeding skywards. I also like looking through the window and observing the land beneath me. For me, being 9,000 metres up in the air and moving at a speed of 800 kilometres an hour is extremely exciting and pretty incredible. I can’t say that I look forward to turbulence, but when it does happen, I have the feeling like I’m at an amusement park. You defy gravity when you fly and that’s a liberating feeling...” What do you always carry with you on a flight? “I often unwind and plunge into my thoughts while spending hours sitting in my seat. I unleash my imagination; that’s my space of freedom where everything is possible, while time and space no longer exist. That’s why I don't carry anything in particular, just a book and an iPad in case I want to read or watch a film or series.” who is vladimir Vladimir Aleksić was born in Zrenjanin in 1977 and graduated in acting studies at the Novi Sad Academy of Arts. He moved to Italy upon completing his studies at the academy, at the invitation of Italy’s Motus Theatre, with which he still collaborates. He performed in a series of plays with Motus, including the 2004 play Rooms, which won Italy’s award for the best theatre project in the country. He returned to Serbia in 2008 and has since been active as a film and television actor. He performed his first auteur play in 2016, as well as realising the project Philharmonic Theatre - Letters of the Composer. He is the producer, co-author and co-director of the play Lepa Brena Project, but also author and producer of the play Journey Beyond the Centre of the Earth, which has also been performed aboard planes...

16 | Er Srbija » Air Serbia Možemo li danas pratiti korake grčkih filozofa kroz vekovni pejzaž centralne Atine? Gde su tačno bile njihove škole i svakodnevna mesta okupljanja? Dokazi o kretanju filozofa i omiljenim druženjima u Atini dolaze nam kroz kombinaciju istorijskih izvora i arheoloških dokaza. Stvarne lokacije Platonove Akademije i Aristotelovog Liceja danas su arheološka nalazišta ili parkovi, dok je Sokratova škola radila ispod drveć a u hladu, na ulicama grada ili u privatnim kuć ama. Danas možemo da posetimo mesta kojima su šetali slavni filozofi, uz mnogo mašte zamišljaju i sve te divne razgovore... Atina, kolevka zapadne civilizacije, nije samo rodno mesto već i večni centar filozofije, dom Platonove Akademije, Sokrat, Platon i Aristotel privukli su sledbenike, uspostavili škole i ostavili večno nasleđe u Atini Socrates, Plato and Aristotle all attracted followers, established schools and left eternal legacies Epikurovog vrta, Zenonove Stoe i Aristotelovog Liceja. Što se filozofije tiče, sve je počelo ovde, u senci Akropolja i Partenona, u živopisnim uličicama i atinskim maslinjacima. Slava antičke Atine se ogleda u celom gradu; bukvalno je svaki kutak bio mesto slavljenih filozofskih debata. Mesto gde su veliki filozofi poput Sokrata, Platona i Aristotela iznosili ideje koje su još tada predodređene da obeleže istoriju čovečanstva. Od Talesa, koji se često smatra prvim zapadnim filozofom, do stoika i skeptika, antička grčka filozofija je otvorila vrata posebnom načinu razmišljanja koji je dao korene zapadnoj intelektualnoj tradiciji. Demokrit je postavljao atome kao osnovu sve materije, sa Sokratom dolazi kontinuirano istraživanje etičkih pitanja i orijentacija ka ljudskom životu, a sa Platonom jedan od najkreativnijih i najfleksibilnijih načina bavljenja filozofijom i temama koje su i danas zanimljive u etici, političkoj misli, metafizici... Platonov učenik Aristotel bio je jedan od najplodnijih antičkih autora, napisavši rasprave o svakoj od ovih tema, kao i o istraživanju sveta prirode. Sokratova agora U srcu drevne Atine ležao je njen centralni trg i pijaca, agora, koju je skoro svaka odrasla osoba, a da ne pominjemo vodeć e građane, verovatno posetila u nekom trenutku. Glavne aktivnosti u agori bili su razgovori, upoznavanje sa prijateljima i saradnicima i prać enje najnovijih vesti. Sokrat je bio čest posetilac centralnog trga u Atini i okolnih četvrti. Tamo je šetao užurbanim uličicama, prisustvovao sudskim postupcima i sastancima Saveta kada je to bilo potrebno ili razgovarao sa sledbenicima.

U srcu drevne Atine ležao je njen centralni trg i pijaca, agora, na kojoj je Sokrat praktično i živeo At the heart of ancient Athens stood its central square and marketplace, the Agora, where Socrates was practically resident Air Serbia » Er Srbija | 17 Can we now trace the footsteps of Greek philosophers across the ancient landscape of central Athens? Where exactly were the philosophical schools and daily haunts? Evidence for the movements of philosophers and their favourite haunts in Athens comes to us through a combination of historical sources and archaeological evidence. The actual locations of Plato’s Academy and Aristotle’s Lyceum are today archaeological sites or parks, while Socrates’ “school” operated in the shade of trees, on the ancient city’s streets, or within private houses. We can today visit specific sites that were frequented by Socrates and other famous philosophers, not only in the Athenian Agora, but elsewhere across the ancient city, where a healthy imagination allows us to hear those delightful conversations. Athens, the cradle of Western civilisation, is not only the birthplace of philosophy, but also its perpetual centre, the home of Plato’s Academy, Epicure’s Garden, Zeno’s Stoa and Aristotle’s Lyceum. When it comes to philosophical thinking, everything started here, in the shadow of the Acropolis and the Parthenon, in the picturesque alleyways and olive gardens of Athens. The glory of ancient Athens is reflected across the city; literally every corner has hosted celebrated philosophical debates and represents a venue where great philosophers like Socrates, Plato and Aristotle presented the ideas that were destined to dominate the subsequent history of mankind. From Thales, who is often considered the first Western philosopher, to the Stoics and Sceptics, ancient Greek philosophy opened the door to a particular way of thinking that provided the roots for the Western intellectual tradition. Democritus posited that atoms were the basic stuff of all matter, Socrates gave us a sustained inquiry into ethical matters—an orientation towards human living with Plato, who was one of the most creative and flexible philosophers, addressing topics that are still of interest in today’s ethics, political thought and metaphysics. Plato’s student, Aristotle, was one of the most prolific of ancient authors. He wrote treatises on each of these topics, as well as on investigations into the natural world... Socrates’s Agora At the heart of ancient Athens stands its central square and marketplace, the Agora, which was likely visited at one time or another by almost every ancient Athenian, not to mention the city’s most prominent citizens. The main activities in the Agora were talking, meeting friends and associates, and catching up on the latest news. Socrates was a frequent visitor to Athens’ central square and surrounding neighbourhoods. He strolled its bustling lanes, attended court proceedings and Council meetings when required, or encountered devoted followers. Socrates reFoto: Profimedia / Marco Simoni / robertharding

Ali Sokrat je uživao na otvorenom. Ksenofont svedoči: „Rano ujutru bi išao na javna šetališta i poligone, u podne je viđan na pijaci, a ostatak dana je provodio upravo tamo gde možeš da sretneš već inu ljudi…“ Konkretno, bio je naviknut da govori u agori... Platonova Akademija Prizor filozofa koji se šetkaju po centru grada postao je sasvim uobičajen tokom 5. veka pre nove ere, kada je Perikleova Atina postala intelektualni, demokratski i umetnički inkubator. Tri glavne gimnazije u gradu od 6. do 4. veka pre nove ere bile su Akademija, Licej i Kinosargi, smešteni severno, istočno i jugoistočno od drevnog grada. Akademija, koja je dobila ime po lokalnom heroju Hekademu (Akademu), dugo je bila sveto područje, prilično suvo i bez vegetacije, sve dok ga državnik Kimon nije navodnio iz obližnjih reka Kefis i Eridanos. U Sokratovo vreme već se ovaj deo oko Akademije smatrao najlepšim okrugom izvan Atine. Njegov hladan, senoviti maslinjak, posveć en Atini, bio je privlačno mesto za filozofe i njihove studente, koji bi stizali do ovog parka nakon šetnje od oko 1,5 km od kapije Dipilon u kvartu Keramikos. Platon, iz imuć ne porodice u tom kraju, osnovao je svoju školu oko 387. pre Hrista u svojoj kuć i, zapadno od brda Hipios Kolonos. U narednim vekovima školski kampus se dalje razvijao sa dodatnim zgradama. Danas je Akademija arheološko nalazište i pokriva je veliki travnati park. Aristotelov Licej Istočno od današnjeg trga Sintagma bio je i pastoralni i dobro navodnjavani kvart Licej. Omeđen na severu brdom Likavitus i rekom Eridanos, a na jugu svetilištem Zevsu i rekom Ilisos, u početku je bio posve en Apolonu Likeju, zaštitniku stada. Atletske objekte Liceja koristili su sofisti (Protagora, Prodikus...) pre Sokratovog vremena, dok je Isokrat kasnije tamo predavao retoriku. Godine 335. pre nove ere Platonov učenik Aristotel vratio se u Atinu, preuzimajuć i zgradu Liceja za svoju peripatetičku školu – tako nazvanu zbog šetališta, ili zbog njegove navike da hoda dok razgovara sa učenicima. Aristotelov Licej je sadržao biblioteku i zbirke uzoraka biljaka i životinja, čemu je značajno doprineo njegov bivši učenik, slavni Aleksandar Veliki. Kao mesto obrazovanja, nastave i istraživanja, predstavljao je prvi „univerzitet“ zapadnog sveta. Danas posetioci arheološkog nalazišta pored Vizantijskog muzeja mogu da vide temelje palestre, osnovane 350–300 pre nove ere. Foto: Profimedia / Ael / Alamy Foto: Profimedia / Classic Image / Alamy

In fact, by today’s standards, we might categorise him as a vagrant living in the Athenian Agora. Socrates enjoyed the outdoors. Xenophon says. “Early in the morning, he went to the public promenades and training grounds; in the forenoon, he was seen in the market; and the rest of the day he passed just where most people were to be met….” In particular, he was accustomed to speaking in the Agora... Plato’s Academy The sight of philosophers hanging around the city centre became even more commonplace during the 5th century BC, when Periclean Athens became an intellectual and democratic artistic incubator. The three major gymnasia of Athens during the period from the 6th to 4th centuries BC were the Academy, the Lyceum, and the Cynosarges temple of Heracles, respectively located to the north, east, and southeast of the ancient city. The Academy, named after local hero Academus, had long been a sacred area, though it was arid and treeless until the statesman Cimon irrigated it with waters from the nearby rivers of Cephissus and Eridanos. By Socrates’ time, it was already considered the most beautiful district outside the walled Athens. Its cool and shady olive grove, dedicated to the goddess Athena, would have been an attractive place for philosophers and their students, who Foto: Dimitrios Pikros Foto: Giuseppe Masci
20 | Er Srbija » Air Serbia Ne samo da je drevna grčka filozofija utrla put zapadnoj intelektualnoj tradiciji već je i u svoje vreme drmala kulturne temelje / Ancient Greek philosophy not only paved the way for the Western intellectual tradition, but also shook the very cultural foundations of its own time could reach this parkland after walking about 1.5 km from the Dipylon, the Double Gate in the Cerameicus quarter. Plato, who hailed from an affluent family in the area, established his school in around 387 BC in his own home, to the west of the Hill of Hippios Kolonos. The school’s “campus” was further developed in the following centuries with the addition of new buildings. A grassy park today covers the territory once occupied by the Academy. Aristotle’s Lyceum The Lyceum district, lying to the east of present-day Syntagma Square, was also rural and well-watered in antiquity. Bounded to the north by Lycabettus Hill and the Eridanos River, and to the south by the Sanctuary of Olympian Zeus and the Ilissos River, it was initially sacred to Lycean Apollo, a protector of herds against wolf attacks. The Lyceum’s athletic facilities had already been used by sophists (such as Protagoras and Prodicus) prior to Socrates’ time, while Isocrates later taught rhetoric there. It was in 335 BC that Aristotle, Plato’s student, returned to Athens and took over a Lyceum building for his “Peripatetic” school – so named for the walkways or his habit of walking while speaking with students. Aristotle’s Lyceum contained a library and collections of samples of plants and animals, with a significant contribution to the collection provided by his former pupil-turned-conqueror, Alexander the Great. As a place of education, teaching and research, it represented the Western world’s first “university”. Visitors to today’s archaeological site beside the Byzantine Museum can view the foundations of a palaestra wrestling school that was founded ca. 350-300 BC.

Umetnica svojom širinom i bogatstvom uspeva da se nametne publici i izazove je na dalja promišljanja, a da li je tako, možete da proverite u galeriji „Art for All“ u Beogradu do 5. oktobra.

U trendingu / trending Treći deo trilogije „Solunska 28“ donosi nam priču Milana Jankovića – rođenog na adresi iz naslova knjige – o tome kako je krvavi raspad Jugoslavije izbegnut zahvaljujući poverenju svih njenih naroda i narodnosti u rokenrol. Završni deo trilogije „Solunska 28“ doktora Neleta Karajlića stavlja tačku na priču o sudbini jedne dorćolske adrese i nekoliko generacija koje su tu živele. Takođe, time je otvoreno i novo poglavlje u stvaralačkoj biografiji čoveka koji već četiri decenije peva, komponuje, glumi, režira i piše li piše. Dr Karajlić je rešio da u svojoj sagi o jednom gradu i dva i po svetska rata istoriju ščepa tamo gde je najtanja i izvrne je naglavačke. Knjiga daje moćan umetnički pogled na alternativnu nedavnu prošlost u kojoj je krvavi raspad Jugoslavije izbegnut zahvaljujući poverenju u rokenrol... Knjiga će se pojaviti u knjižara sredinom oktobra. The third part of the trilogy Solunska 28 brings us the story of Milan Janković - born at the address that forms the title of the book - about how the bloody collapse of Yugoslavia was avoided thanks to all its peoples and nationalities placing their trust in rock ‘n’ roll. This final instalment of Dr Nele Karajlić’s Solunska 28 trilogy concludes the story of the fate of one address in Belgrade’s Dorćol neighbourhood and several generations who lived there, but also opens a new chapter in the creative biography of a man who has spent the past four decades working as a singer, composer, actor, director and writer. In his saga of one city and two and a half world wars, Nenad Karajlić decided to snatch at history where it is at its leanest and turn it on its head. The book offers a powerful artistic perspective on an alternative recent past thanks to the power of rock ‘n’ roll... The book will be available in bookshops from mid-October.

Trending » U trendingu | 27 Nik Vest se vraća u grad Nik west is returning to the city koncert / concert American funk bassist, singer and songwriter Nik West has announced her spectacular return to the Belgrade music scene. West will perform on 2nd November at the BitefArtCafe club, as part of the Musicology Sessions concert series, promising the audience an unforgettable experience packed with positive energy. West is no ordinary musician. She is a virtuoso bassist and a creative force of the 21st century in the music world. With her iconic ‘mohawk’ hairstyle, which is reminiscent of a bass clef, she’s not just a talented musician – she’s also a visual artist. Her fellow musicians, critics and audiences consider her one of the most prominent representatives of the new funk scene and the successor to the legendary Prince, with whom she collaborated closely. Alex Henderson, a renowned music journalist of Billboard magazine, described her as being among the rare artists of the 21st century who have perfect understanding of their instrument. We spoke with Nik, as we await the 2nd November concert at Belgrade’s BitefArtCafe club, who says that she’s very excited about returning to Belgrade... - That 2019 performance left a deep impression on me, because I remember how incredible the energy of the audience was! I happily communicate with my fans, because I believe that music extends beyond the performance itself. I always want to share something with the audience, be that positive emotion or inspiration. My favourite audience is loud, excited and full of energy, which inspires me to offer them my best. I then feel like Superwoman! Questions about your collaboration with Prince are unavoidable. How would you describe the experience of working with him? - That cooperation forever changed my life. Prince is the kind of artist who appears once in a lifetime. I feel huge gratitude that I had an opportunity to be part of his musical story and that I had the opportunity to learn from him. Do you have any advice for young musicians, particularly bassists? - Be authentic. Don’t try to be like anyone else, because you are actually special and the world needs what you bring. Your audience will always recognise your uniqueness. Practice hard, set realistic goals and give your all to achieve them. Američka fank basistkinja, pevačica i tekstopisac, Nik Vest, najavljuje spektakularni povratak na muzičku scenu Beograda. Nastupiće u klubu „BitefArtCafe“ 2. novembra, u okviru koncertnog serijala „Musicology Sessions“, obećavajući publici nezaboravno iskustvo puno pozitivne energije. Nik Vest nije samo obična muzičarka, ona je virtuoz na bas-gitari i kreativna snaga 21. veka u svetu muzike. Sa svojom ikoničnom čiroki frizurom koja podseća na bas-ključ, ona nije samo talentovana muzičarka – ona je vizuelna umetnica. Njene kolege muzičari, kritičari i publika smatraju je za jednu od najistaknutijih predstavnica nove fank scene i naslednicu legendarnog Prinsa, sa kojim je imala blisku saradnju. Poznati muzički novinar Alek Henderson, iz magazina „Bilbord“, opisao ju je kao retku umetnicu 21. veka koji savršeno poznaje svoj instrument. Povodom koncerta 2. novembra u klubu „BitefArtCafe“, razgovarali smo sa Nik, koja kaže da je veoma uzbuđena zbog povratka u u Beograd... – Taj nastup 2019. godine je ostavio dubok utisak na mene jer pamtim koliko je bila neverovatna energija publike! Rado komuniciram sa svojim fanovima jer verujem da muzika ide dalje od samog izvođenja. Uvek želim nešto da podelim sa publikom, bila to pozitivna emocija ili inspiracija. Moja omiljena publika je bučna, uzbuđena i prepuna energije, što me inspiriše da pružim najbolje od sebe. Tada se osećam kao superžena! Pitanja o saradnji sa Prinsom su neizbežna. Kako biste opisali iskustvo rada sa njim? – Ta saradnja je zauvek promenila moj život. Prins je umetnik koji se pojavljuje samo jednom u životu. Osećam veliku zahvalnost što sam imala priliku da budem deo njegove muzičke priče i da učim od njega. Imate li neki savet za mlade muzičare i basiste? – Budite autentični. Nemojte pokušavati da budete kao bilo ko drugi, jer ste upravo vi posebni i svetu je potrebno ono što donosite. Vaša publika će uvek prepoznati vašu jedinstvenost. Vežbajte naporno, postavljajte realne ciljeve i dajte sve od sebe da ih ostvarite. Postala sam majka. Imam malog sina koji mi je doneo mnogo radosti i inspiracije. Jedva čekam da podelim muziku koja je nastala zahvaljujući njemu I became a mother. I have a little son who has brought me a lot of joy and inspiration. I can hardly wait to share the music that was created thanks to him
