Abstract
In this paper we will look at the early history of teaching descriptive geometry in Serbia, concentrating on Dimitrije Stojanovic's "Methodo- logy of Descriptive Geometry". This book was 25 years in the making, he started writing it in 1874, completed and published it in 1899. So com- prehensive was this textbook that though it was written in the last quarter of 19 th century it exceedes many modern textbooks in its scope. It has 692 pages of the text and 462 drawings, which were separately printed at the end of the book. Stojanovic's "Methodology of Descriptive Geometry" is the first attempt to synthesize descriptive and projective geometry.
