AZ republished (grammatological apologia to the first Slavic alphabet and its creator Constantine Cyril)

Ever since it was first published in 2009, in honor of the Slavic apostle, missionary and codifier of the first literary language for the Slavs, Constantine Cyril (of Thessaloniki), and his Glagolitic alphabet, the novel by Osijek writer and researcher Jasna Horvat has not ceased to be in the center of scientific and extra- scientific interest. This is due to its unusual concept of an intermedia experimental novel – a lexicon novel subject to a specific scientific limitation arising from the scientific field of philology and its disciplines ; nevertheless, certainly also due to the fact that it was awarded the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts Prize for Literature in 2010. Using philology as the medium, the novel Az has not only became the spokesperson of the heritage and identity story of Croatian (and Slavic) medieval linguistic and literary culture, but has also activated the trigger for the production of new structures in both the scientific and non- scientific, literary and extra-literary reality. It is, therefore, only natural that a decade later, symbolically invoked by the initial quarter of 2020 into the module from which the Croatian Triangular Glagolitic script was born, and having exerted such a remarkable influence on Croatian contemporary culture, it appears in its second edition.
