A memorial plate to Mileva Maric Einstein uveiled in Zurich
June 14, 2009
Serbian Diaspora Minister Srdjan Sreckovic has unveiled at cemetery
Nordheim in Zurich a memorial plate to Mileva Maric Einstein, a Serbian
scientist who contributed to the world success of her husband,
Nobel-prize winner Albert Einstein. Before this commemoration, a liturgy
in her honour was served in the Orthodox church of the Holy Trinity in
Zurich. This is a big day for our diaspora, but also for the state of
Serbia and all the Serbs, the minister said, having unveiled the
memorial plate. This has been the first time an official homage has been
paid to Mileva Maric Einstein, who died more than 60 years ago. Mileva
Maric contributed significantly to revolutionary theory of physics,
which gave birth to the quantum theory, he emphasized, and therefore her
name has been included as one of the 100 most famous women scientists in
all the world encyclopaedias.
