  • The Macedonian Scientific and Literary Society, sometimes called Slavic-Macedonian Scholarly and Literary Society was an organization of Macedonian Slavs in Russia in the first decades of the twentieth century. Its aim was the creation of an independent Macedonia, encompassing the entire geographic region of Macedonia, according to maps drawn by the society itself. Its founders were Dimitrija Čupovski (President from 1902 to 1917) and his brother Nace Dimov. Other founders include Stefan Dedov and Dijamandija Mišajkov. The organization's secretary was Milan Stoilov, a medical student in Saint Petersburg. The Macedonian Literary and Scientific Society was the most prominent society of the Macedonians abroad. It was established in Saint Petersburg on 28 October 1902 and was presided over by Čupovski. As part of its scholarly and literary activities, the society supported the introduction of Macedonian as its official language. Its member Krste Misirkov published the first book in a precursor of the modern Macedonian literary language (Za Makedonskite Raboti - On Macedonian Matters) in 1903. The book was published in the central dialects of Macedonia, which would later form the core of the Macedonian literary language, as proposed in the book itself. The book also used a modified Cyrillic script which served as a basis for standardization of the Macedonian alphabet. In 1905 the Society published Vardar, the first scholarly, scientific and literary journal in the central dialects of Macedonia, which later would contribute in the standardization of Macedonian, while in 1913 it produced the first ethnic and geographic map of Macedonia. In addition it published the journal "Makedonskij Golos" (Macedonian Voice) in Russian. This scholarly institution with its literary and national cultural activity is considered the foundation upon which the history of the modern Macedonian Academy of Arts and Sciences was built upon.
