Nell’anno di Nikola Tesla

Persida Lazarević Di Giacomo

Abstract


The 150th Anniversary Celebration of Nikola Tesla



The paper deals with the 150th anniversary celebration of Nikola Tesla, the greatest ever Yugoslav scientist. Due to his origins, Tesla is contended between Serbia and Croatia, but he is also considered to be an American scientist since he registered most of his patents in the USA. Although there is some dissension between Serbia and Croatia regarding the historical facts about Tesla’s life, it can be asserted that Tesla appears to be an example of collaboration among the former Yugoslav countries.
Tesla, however, deserves to be remembered as well as the author of autobiographical prose (My Inventions; Some Personal Recollections; A Strange Experience by Nikola Tesla) and as the protagonist of many works published in Serbo-Croatian and in English, such as Miloš Crnjanski’s drama Tesla (1969) or The Hunger and Ecstasy of Vampires (1996) by Brian M. Stableford, for example. This fact should not be neglected and actually should be researched more fully.
