Reference excerpt

The Mileševa printing house (Serbian: Милешевска штампарија) was a printing house established in 1544 in the Mileševa monastery near Prijepolje, Ottoman Empire (modern day Serbia). Three srbulje books were printed in this printing house. Two in 1544 and 1545 and one in 1557.

Background Activities connected with printing in Mileševa began when in 1518 or at the beginning of 1519 when Teodor Ljubavić, who was a hieromonk of Mileševa, travelled to Venice to learn printing skills. Ljubavić worked at Goražde printing house between 1521 and 1523. Between 1533 and 1535 Božidar Vuković visited Mileševa and concluded an agreement with Mileševa to distribute his books.

Establishing In 1543 Todor Ljubojević, a monk in Mileševa and son of Božidar, was sent to Venice to join his brother Đurađ and to buy a printing press for the monastery. He was accompanied by Mileševa monk Sava and by Mardarije who was a hegumen of the Banja Monastery near Priboj. At that time Banja Monastery was a seat of the metropolitan bishop while Mileševa was the richest monastery of Dabar eparchy. That is why those two monasteries were given the task to finance and organize establishing of the printing house in Mileševa and why Mardarije travelled to Venice together with monks from Mileševa.

Printing Mileševa printing house was operational in period 1544–1557. Three books were printed in it, Psalter (Псалтир, 1544), Breviary (Требник, 1545) and another Psalter (1557). Psalter of 1544 was edited and prepared by Mardarije and Teodor Ljubavić, based on 1519-20 Psalter of Božidar Vuković. Psalter was edited and prepared by Mardarije and Teodor Ljubavić, based on 1519-20 Psalter of Božidar Vuković. Trebnik was printed by Deak Damjan and Milan from Obna (region around river Kolubara). The third book was printed after a pause of twelve years. Because it was printed with different types, some sources say that two printing houses existed in Mileševa, both of them founded by the order of hegumen of Mileševa, Danilo.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Mileševa printing house

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Mileševa printing house claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Mileševa printing house before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Mileševa printing house ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Mileševa printing house

In research: Mileševa printing house appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Mileševa printing house in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Mileševa printing house is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Early modern Serbian art, History of printing, History of the Serbian Orthodox Church, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Mileševa printing house outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
