MACEDONIAN LITERATURE
The first representatives of modern Macedonian literature made their appearance at the beginning of the 19th century. Joakim Krcovski and Kiril Pejcinovik introduced the ideas and sentiments of Enlightenment and rationalism. After them, the development of Macedonian Literature has been marked by the work of Dimitar and Konstantin Miladinov, Grigor Prlicev, and Rajko Zinzifov from the period of the middle of the 19th century. It was further developed in the 20th century by Vojdan Cernodrinski, Nikola Kirov - Majski and Atanas Razdolov.
Then the development of Macedonian Literature continued with Koco Racin, who is considered to be the founder of the modern literature. The first post-war generation of Macedonian poets, prose writers and playwrights included Blaze Koneski, Aco Sopov, Slavko Janevski, Vlado Maleski and Kole Casule.
The new generation of Macedonian writers which appeared in the early 1950s, encompassing among others Gane Todorovski, Mateja Matevski, Dimitar Solev, Ante Popovski, Boris Visinski and Simon Drakul is still very active today. They were followed by a wider group of talented authors, from which we can single out Zivko Cingo, Petre M. Andreevski, Radovan Pavlovski, Jovan Koteski e.t.c.

MAKEDONSKIOT JAZIK VO GRCIJA E REALNOST
(Prezemeno od Utrinski vesnik, avtor Dimitar ^ulev)
“^etirieset milioni lu|e vo Evropa, ili deset otsto od vkupnoto naselenie na kontinentot, govorat na jazik razli~en od oficijalniot vo nivnite nacionalni dr`avi i Grcija vo toj pogled ne e isklu~ok. Vo ovaa zemja postojat nekolku jazi~ni malcinstva i cel na na{ata organizacija e da go zapoznae gr~koto op{testvo so toj fakt. Grcija, sepak, ne e samo edna nacija, edna religija, edna ideja”, veli Atanasios Parisis, pretsedatel na Gr~kiot komitet na Evropskoto biro (EBLUL) za pomalku upotrebuvani jazici formiran vo po~etok na ovaa godina. Na 15 noemvri vo Solun }e se odr`i prvata kofnerencija na EBLUL vo Grcija i voop{to prva od takov tip {to se odr`uva vo ovaa zemja na koja }e se progovori za postoewe na malcinskite jazici vo Grcija. Parisis, koj insistira na makedonskiot prekar Na~o, e 46-godi{en biznismen od Nausa (Negu{), ~len na Makedonskiot dom na kulturata vo Lerin.
Gospodine Parisis, ne e li malku ~udno {to dvaeset godini po osnovaweto na ovaa evroposka asocijacija duri godinava e otvorena sekcija i vo Grcija?
- Se soglasuvam. Mislam deka toa ne e slu~ajno i pri~ina za toa se barem dve ne{ta.
Imeno, EBLUL se obra}al do gr~kite vlasti vo Atina baraj}i podatoci za jazi~nite grupi ovde, no ottamu dobivale pogre{ni ili bi rekol necelosni informacii. Od druga strana, na{ite obidi da signalizirame do Brisel (kade {to se nao|a Centralnoto biro) deka vo Grcija postojat i lu|e koi govorat na makedonski, na turski, na vla{ki jazik, ostanuvaa bez odgovor, za{to vo Brisel se pla{ele deka takvite informacii mo`ebi doa|aat od nekakvi ekstremisti, nacionalisti so nedefinirani politi~ki celi.
No, blagodarenie na li~niot anga`man na Georgos Hakrasas, doktor od Solun, prvata delegacija na EBLUL predvodena od pretsedatelot Bojan Brezigar (Slovenec od Italija), dojde vo Grcija, se sretna so pretstavnici na Vlasite, na Turcite i na Makedoncite i bea voodu{eveni. Vedna{ pobaraa formirawe komitet i vo januari godinava e formiran Gr~kiot komitet.
EBLUL ne e mnogu poznata asocijacija na Balkanot. Koi se nejzinite celi i kone~no, koi se celite na Gr~kiot komitet?
- Toa e nevladina organizacija formirana so odluka na Evropskiot parlament od kade {to doa|aat glavnite sredstva za finansirawe i nad koja vr{i kontrola Evropskata komisija. Celta na EBLUL e da im pomogne na jazi~nite grupi da opstojat vo razli~nite dr`avi. Onie jazici koi, poradi razli~ni istoriski okolnosti, stanale vtor ili tret jazik vo formiranite nacionalni dr`avi, a mnozinskata populacija vo mnogu sredini na znae ili ne saka da znae za niv. Toa e del od kulturnoto nasledstvo na Evropa i EBLUL nastapuva tokmu od taa pozicija.
Toa se celite i na na{iot Komitet: da poka`eme deka vo Grcija ne postoi samo edna nacija, tuku deka ovaa zemja e multikulturna, ima {arenilo vo pogled na jazicite koi se govorat pokraj oficijalniot, no deka toa ne e nikakva opasnost.
Kako mislite da go postignete toa otvorawe kon ne mnogu omilenata tema na gr~koto op{testvo i vlasti?
- So koristewe na iskustvoto od drugite zemji. A, toa veli deka ne treba da se o~ekuvaat brzi re{enija, {to ne zna~i deka ne treba vedna{ da se postavi baraweto za vklu~uvawe na malcinskite jazici vo gr~kiot obrazoven sistem. Samo kako primer, vo Grcija 150 iljadi lu|e go koristat turskiot jazik, a okolu 200.000 vla{kiot. [to se odnesuva do makedonskiot, te{ko e da se proceni kolku lu|e go govorat, no brojkata e sigurno pogolema. Vo zavisnost od toa kolku uspeala asimilacijata, mo`e da ka`eme deka toj pove}e se govori vo Lerinsko, Kostursko, Vodensko, a pomalku na jug, kade {to asimilacijata bila pouspe{na.
Vo gr~kata javnost makedonskiot jazik ne retko se spomenuval vo kontekst na nekakov “ov~arski dijalekt”?
- Znaete, vo Grcija postoi izvesna konspiracija koga se postavuva ovaa tema. Od pret{kolska vozrast go slu{ame toa za na{iot jazik. Se vr{e{e izvesen pritisok na decata i roditelite deka koristeweto na nivniot jazik, pokraj gr~kiot, }e bide {tetno za nivniot razvoj. Porano ima{e i pokonkretni merki za zabrana, sega toa e svedeno na izvesen psiholo{ki pritisok.
No, zo{to bi bilo {tetno znaeweto na drug jazik. So gospodinot Brezigar razgovaram za nekakva kombinacija od makedonsko-srpsko-slovene~ki, poradi toa {to jazikot mi e poznat. Sega, so vleguvaweto na u{te nekolku isto~noevropski zemji vo EU, jazicite koi imaat slovenski koren }e bidat poprisutni.
Na Konferencijata vo Solun }e gi povtorite i konkretnite barawa?
- Barawata se znaat i vo del od gr~kiot pe~at ima{e pozitivni tekstovi po povod formiraweto na Komitetot, iako ima{e i nekoi kritiki. ]e napravime sporedba so sostojbata na jazi~nite malcinstva vo drugi zemji. Na primer, o~ekuvame da go slu{neme italijanskoto iskustvo. Na jugot na Italija ima gr~ko jazi~no malcinstvo i toj jazik, kako i albanskiot, ve}e e vlezen vo italijanskiot obrazoven sistem.

Six years on, a Kennett government directive is over - ruled
By Farrah TOMAZIN
and Adrian ROLLINS
Victorias Macedonian community has won a six - year battle against the Victorian Government over the naming of its language.
The High Court on Friday overruled a 1994 directive from the Kennett government to refer to the Macedonian community as Slav-Macedonian and refer to the Macedonian language as Macedonian (Slavonic).
The issue has been a source of tension between the Greek Macedonian community and Macedonians from the Balkan state of FYROM (Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia), culminating in a series of graffiti attacks and firebombing of churches and community centres in 1994.
Former premier Jeff Kennett championed the cause of the Greek community, which opposed the use of term Macedonian because of what it said was an implied territorial claim.
But Fridays decision - handed down by Chief Justice Gleeson, Justice Calinan and Justice Hayne - paves the way for the Victorian Government to remove the Slav and Slavonic directive from all government literature and references and instead refer to the language as Macedonian.
Secretary of the Macedonian Teachers Association, Pandora PETROVSKA, welcomed the decision.
Mrs Petrovska said the renaming directive had been implicitly racist and called on the Bracks Government to adhere to restoring the Macedonian language name to its internationally recognised status.
We are elated by the High Court win. Over the last six years, Victoria is the only state in the world to issue a directive to change the name of an internationally recognised standard language and then engaged in protracted legal process to uphold a directive that is a potential breach of the racial discrimination act, she said.
The current mood in Australia at the moment is about reconciliation. Wed like to have the government move in that direction with us as well... its time for the Macedonian community to be treated equally.
Mrs Petrovska said the action had had a serious impact on multicultural language education in Victoria. In all other Australian states the year 12 language exam is referred to a Macedonian, but in Victoria, she said, it had been labelled Macedonian (Slavonic).
Its an internationally recognised standard language that there could be no possible confusion with ... but it affected students and its affected teachers in their workplace, she said.
We want it removed. We want the language referred to as Macedonian, the way that all other states in Australia refer to it.
A government spokesman said the Bracks Government had continued with the case that started under previous administration, but accepted the decision of the High Court.
