Vladimir Bošković graduated in Classical Philology from the University of Belgrade and did an MA in Modern Greek Literature at Aristotelian University of Salonica. His first great love was Old Church Slavonic, but he has been cheating on it with Greek all along. His main points of interest include twentieth-century Greek poetry, Medieval Greek civilization, literary production in the Balkans on the eve of the nineteenth-century national revolutions, and travel literature. He also likes reading medieval Slavic manuscripts and spending time on the Aegean islands (or both, as happened last summer in the monastery of St. John the Theologian in Patmos). Sometimes he listens to rembetika songs. Sometimes he doesn’t.
