In this book, the priests wrote down the gifts that the believers gave them from 1762 to 1789. Based on the name of the believers, the names of the places from which they originated, their professions, based on the list of gifts to the monastery, the measurements determining the weight, volume or length of gifts, a clear picture can be formed about the dynamic life of Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija during the 18th century, as well as the active life of Devic Monastery, to which the gifts were donated by the Orthodox Serbs, and also by the Albanians. According to the 2011 census, there are no more Serbs in Srbica, and the Monastery Devic was damaged in both World Wars and was burned down in 1999 and 2004. The work is dedicated to the celebration of eight centuries of autocephality of Serbian Orthodox Church (1219–2019), and consequently the autonomy the Serbian education, science, art and the entire spiritual life of Serbs, whose origins are related specifically to Kosovo and Metohija.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={The life of Serbs in Kosovo in the 18th century based on the language of the monastery books of the Monastery of Devic}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/113507/PDF/R.Slawist.%2068-2019%203Dragi%C4%87evi%C4%87.pdf}, doi={10.24425/rslaw.2019.130011}, keywords={Devic’ katastichos, Kosovo and Metohija, anthroponyms, toponyms, Nomina professionalis, linguoculturology, lexicology, Serbian language}, }
