The Wolf of Lexicography

from We Can Pedia · host Tristan Haze and Nathan Hugh Robért

Antun Vujić (born 14 July 1945). A fruitful episode about a fruitful man. From dissident political activity to squabbling over words. Was the wolf tamed? Or his vigour sublimated? NHR is off his chipolatas. We really like Antun. Where are the men like this in our culture? From heady beginnings in 1967 with an underground magazine before winding up at the Yugoslav Lexicographical Institute in the early Seventies, we are dealing with a truly impressive man. He also completed a PhD in Philosophy of Science in 1985. We explore his virility. He received a sash and star. Antun Vujić (born 14 July 1945[1]) is a Croatian politician, philosopher, political analyst, lexicographer and author serving as a director of the Miroslav Krleža Institute of Lexicography since 2012. He was a member of Croatian Parliament and Minister of Culture in the Croatian Government from January 2000 to December 2003. Theme music by Edward Lonsdale. Tristan on Instagram. NHR on Instagram.
