Ljubomir Stojanović (Serbian Cyrillic: Љубомир Стојановић, sometimes mentioned as Ljuba Stojanovic) (6 August 1860, Užice – 16 June 1930) was a Serbian politician, philologist and academic.
Biography
Stojanović was a philologist and historian, who graduated from the School of Philosophy at the Grandes écoles (Template:Lang-sr, the Grandes Écoles). After studies in Belgrade he went on to post-graduate studies in Vienna, St. Petersburg and Leipzig.[1] At first a grammar school professor, he was appointed university professor at his alma mater, the Grandes écoles (1891-1899). Opposed to the royal absolutism of King Aleksandar I Obrenović, Stojanović joined the People's Radical Party of Nikola Pašić in 1897.[2]
After the split with the older generation of Radicals who accepted the compromise with the Crown in 1901, Stojanović led the younger group of Radicals, forming the Independent Radical Party (Samostalna radikalna stranka).[2] As a founding member and a leader of the Independent Radical Party in Serbia, Stojanović was several times Minister of Education and Religious Affairs (1903, 1904, 1906, 1909), and Prime Minister from May 1905 to March 1906,[3] under the democratic and constitutional rule of King Peter I Karađorđević.[citation needed]
After the First World War Stojanović was one of the founders of the Yugoslav Republican Party and its first president.[2] Stojanović was often described as a puritan moralist in politics.
From 1913 to 1923 he was Secretary of the Serbian Royal Academy, future Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts.[4] Stojanović was very prolific in various scientific fields, publishing a dozen volumes of medieval Serbian manuscripts and documents including Miroslavljevo Jevandjelje (Miroslav Gospel), and Stari srpski zapisi i natpisi (Old Serbian inscriptions and records) (in six volumes), along with medieval Serbian charters and letters as well as medieval Serbian genealogies and annals. Stojanović published the catalogues of medieval Serbian manuscripts and old books in the National Library of Serbia in Belgrade as well as the catalogue of manuscript collection at the Serbian Royal Academy.
A scholar of enormous erudition, energy and determination, Stojanović published 17 volumes of works of Vuk St. Karadžić, the main reformer of the Serbian alphabet, including several volumes of his extensive correspondence.[5] He also wrote a detailed biography on Karadžić.[2] Stojanović wrote grammar textbooks for Serbian secondary schools, published important scholarly studies of old Serbian printing MA,[citation needed] Serbian churches from 15th to 16th century, the Archbishop Danilo II (Template:Lang-sr).[citation needed]
