Jakov Ignjatović

Jakov Ignjatović (Serbian Cyrillic: Јаков Игњатовић;1822 –1889) was a multifaceted figure in both Serbian and Hungarian cultural and political life, known primarily as a novelist and prose writer. Born in Szentendre, a town with a rich Serbian heritage, Ignjatović’s early life set the stage for his later complex identity. He attended elementary school in Szentendre before continuing his studies at the Gymnasium in Vác, Esztergom, and Pest. Though he enrolled in Law School in Pest, his restless spirit led him to abandon his studies and join the hussars, embracing the Romantic ideals of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848.

In a bold, unconventional move, Ignjatović sided with Hungarian forces against the Austrians, diverging from the stance of mo

Momčilo Nastasijević

Momčilo Nastasijević, srpski pisac, rođen je 06. oktobra 1894. godine (23. septembra po starom kalendaru) u Gornjem Milanovcu, a umro 13. februara 1938. godine u Beogradu.

U svojim shvatanjima poezije Nastasijević je dužnik simbolista. Osnovni pojam njegove poetike, "rodna" ili "maternja" melodija, proizlazi iz simbolističkog shvatanja muzike kao bića poezije. U traganju za tom melodijom pesniku valja pronicati s onu stranu pojava da bi stigao u neposredan dodir s onim što je neizrecivo, tajanstveno, mistično. Maternja je melodija, za Nastasijevića, zvuk izvornog, arhaičnog jezika; u srpskom slučaju to je, s jedne strane, melodija jezika narodne pesme, a s druge, melodija srednjovekovnih tekstova. Na ovoj tački, njegova neosimbolistička zaok

Honoré de Balzac

French writer Honoré de Balzac (born Honoré Balzac), a founder of the realist school of fiction, portrayed the panorama of society in a body of works, known collectively as La comédie humaine .

Honoré de Balzac authored 19th-century novels and plays. After the fall of Napoléon in 1815, his magnum opus, a sequence of almost a hundred novels and plays, entitled, presents life in the years.

Due to keen observation of fine detail and unfiltered representation, European literature regards Balzac. He features renowned multifaceted, even complex, morally ambiguous, full lesser characters.
