Hello, this is my first post here. Thanks Dan for emailimg me, but it may be more convinient if I post here directly. Excuse me for my English, I do
my best but I never lived outside Serbia.
About ten years ago I took the research on this matter and wrote the book about my findings.
The myth began at 1902 (after the death of both prophets), when it had only two "prophecies", created by one journalist and one politician, for
political reasons. During the XX century, it grew up to more than 150 prophecies (note that both prophets died in XIX century). The most important
fact is that the vast majority of prophecies was written (which means documented in written form at books and newspaper) AFTER the predicted event.
Just a few of them were documented before, mostly wrong, so they had to be forgotten and erased from the list. Here I do not count the prophecies for
far-future events, until we see do they deserve our attention.
Here are some facts, in short:
Involved persons (skip this unless you want to compare it with the timeline):
- prophet Milosh Tarabic (1809-1854)
- prophet Mitar Tarabic (son of Milosh's brother) (1829-1899)
- priest Zaharije Zaharic (?-1918), their godfarther, which allegedly wrote down their prophecies (no proof for that)
- journalist and editor Pera Todorovic (1852-1907), supposed author of Kremna's myth together with Cedomilj Mijatovic, politician
- priest and writer dr Radovan Kazimirovic, which wrote a lot about Kremna prophecy in newspapers during 1915-1940 (Zaharije's schoolfriend)
- journalist and writer Predrag Golubovic (1935-1994), wrote a book Kremna Prophecy in 1982 (12 editions)
Timeline:
- 1902: the first newspaper article about the prophecy about King Milan's divorce from 1888, launched for political reasons (Pera Todorovic,
journalist and Cedomilj Mijatovic, politician) (14 years late)
= also (a few days later): prophecy about King Milan's abdiction from 1888 (14 years late)
- 1903, may 28: assassination of king Aleksandar Obrenovic and his wife Draga Masin
- 1903, may 30: prophecy on assassination in "Mirror" news, Pera Todorovic (1 day late)
- 1914: WW I began (not a word about it before it started)
- 1915: prophecy about WW I start in "Nish's Messanger" (dr Kazimirovic) (1 year late)
... also: 1. Turkey will disappear fro Europe (never happened)
... 2. Austria will dissapear (never happened)
... 3. Constatinopolis will be conquered by Rusia (never happened)
... 4. Serbia will be greatly enlarged (never happened)
... 5. town Krusevac will became the capitol of Serbia (never happened)
... 6. Rusia will be the most powerfull country in the world (never happened)
... 7. prophecy about Serbia's triumph in WWI (the only fulfilled prophecy)
- 1918: WWII end (there was not a prophety about when it will end)
- 1928: prophecy about the year of WWI end (10 years late)
- 1928: prophecy on future wars: There will be no wars in the future (Kazimirovic)
- 1939: Kazimirovic's book about the Kremna prophecy, but not a word about WW II
- 1939: WWII began
- 1982: Book of Kremna's prophecy (Golubovic), prophecies on:
... - WWII (43 years late)
... - Hitler and swastika (about 50 years late)
... - Hitler defeated (37 years late)
... - Prophecy that there will be no wars in the future in Serbia during many generations, and Serbia will be very famous and very much respected in
the world (this prophecy vanished in the edition 1993 of the same book, when the war started in Yugoslavia)
... - all other prophecies about the past and future events were created succesively in 12 editions of the same books by journalist Predrag
Golubovic.
I tried to keep this in short, but I have a lot of facts which support the consclusion that the whole prophecy is just a myth and a media bunk.
