Subotić Collection (circa) (1952)
Dragutin Subotić (1887-1952) and his brother Vojislav (?-1969) were born
in Serbia. Dragutin Subotić was educated at the Universities of Belgrade
and Munich. In 1916 he came to live in Britain as the result of the First
World War. From 1916 to 1919 he worked as a supervisor of Serbian
students at Oxford University. In 1919 he was appointed lecturer in
Serbo-Croat at SSEES (then the School of Slavonic Studies, Kings College)
and remained in this post until his retirement in 1942. He also worked
for the Yugoslav Legation as a cultural attaché. He probably began work
on the dictionary in this collection at some point in the 1920s but was
prevented by circumstances from finishing it.
