Desanka Kovačević-Kojić (Serbian Cyrillic: Десанка Ковачевић-Којић; 3 October 1925 – 13 August 2022) was a Serbian medievalist, specialized in the medieval history of Serbia and Bosnia, and in particular urban history, trade and commercial relations.
She left Sarajevo in 1993, after the Siege of Sarajevo had been imposed on her hometown and the Bosnian War was in full swing at that point. She settled in Belgrade, in Serbia, where she continued her work until her death.
Desanka Kovačević-Kojić studied history at the Faculty of Philosophy of the University of Belgrade, graduating in 1950. She was professor at the University of Sarajevo, and since 1993 has worked in the Institute for History in Belgrade. During the 1960s, she spent a year with Radovan Samardžić in Paris, specializing in history at the seminary of Fernand Braudel. She has published several monographs and more than a hundred studies and articles in Serbian and French. She was a member of ANUBiH, and after moving to Belgrade in 1993, she was inducted into the Serbian Academy of Science and Arts.
She died on 13 August 2022, at the age of 96.[1]
