Abstract

The paper reveals the entire obtainable literary material from Mihaljević’s Calendar for the Year 1807, known only from indirect sources: an excerpt of the prose work “The Story of Savka and Kata” (published in an annual magazine in 1963 as part of broader research) and “The Song to the Glory of Serbian Heroes” (taken from a manuscript collection of poems written in 1807 and for the first time in its entirety reprinted in Serbian). In the second segment, the entire literary material from the recently found Calendar for the Year 1808 is published. All the material is given in the original script and transcribed to modern Cyrillic. The aforementioned contributions from 1807 are culturally significant because they belong to Eustahia Arsić and Mihailo Vitković, important early 19th-century authors. On the contrary, those from 1808 are insignificant in this sense, but were given as a source for the study of the phenomena and the history of popular/trivial literature.
