    For a simple Lie algebra \(S\) and the Grassmannian superalgebra in \(n\) indeterminates \(\Lambda (n)\) the author considers the central extensions of the superalgebra \(S \otimes \Lambda (n)\). First, the author describes the central extensions, proving a 1-1 correspondence between central extensions and super-skewsymmetric derivations. Then the author describes the irreducible highest weight representations of such central extensions. The main result is the classification of finite dimensional irreducible representations of central extensions of \(S \otimes \Lambda (n)\). At the end the author also gives a character formula for these representations.
