Svetolik Ranković

Svetolik P. Ranković (1863–1899) bio je srpski pisac iz perioda realizma. Iako njegovo književno delo nije obimno, kritika ga ubraja u pronicljive autore koji su uspeli da prikažu sliku Srbije osamdesetih i devedesetih godina 19. veka.

Pošto je završio Bogosloviju, Ranković je otišao u Kijev, gde je upisao Duhovnu akademiju. U Kijevu se upoznao sa ruskom i svetskom literaturom, a najviše na njega utiču dela Tolstoja, Gogolja, Gončarova, Koroljenka i drugih ruskih pisaca. Uticaj Tolstoja i Dostojevskog posebno je primetan u Rankovićevim romanima i odnosi se, pre svega, na izbor teme i junaka, slikanje unutrašnjeg života, humanistički odnos prema čoveku zapalom u bespomoćan položaj, prirodu sporednih lica kao prikrivenih komentara pojedinih ju

Albert Camus

Works, such as the novels The Stranger (1942) and The Plague (1947), of Algerian-born French writer and philosopher Albert Camus concern the absurdity of the human condition; he won the Nobel Prize of 1957 for literature.

Origin and his experiences of this representative of non-metropolitan literature in the 1930s dominated influences in his thought and work.

He also adapted plays of Pedro Calderón de la Barca, Lope de Vega, Dino Buzzati, and Requiem for a Nun of William Faulkner. One may trace his enjoyment of the theater back to his membership in l'Equipe, an Algerian group, whose "collective creation" Révolte dans les Asturies (1934) was banned for political reasons.

José Saramago

José de Sousa Saramago (16 November 1922 – 18 June 2010) was a Portuguese novelist and recipient of the 1998 Nobel Prize in Literature, for his "parables sustained by imagination, compassion and irony [with which he] continually enables us once again to apprehend an elusory reality."
