  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

  Euripides

  Euripides (Greek: Ευριπίδης) (ca. 480 BC–406 BC) was a tragedian of classical Athens. Along with Aeschylus and Sophocles, he is one of the three ancient Greek tragedians for whom any plays have survived in full. Some ancient scholars attributed ninety-five plays to him, but the Suda says it was ninety-two at most. Of these, eighteen or nineteen have survived more or less complete (Rhesus is suspect). There are many fragments (some substantial) of most of his other plays. More of his plays have survived intact than those of Aeschylus and Sophocles together, partly because his popularity grew as theirs declined—he became, in the Hellenistic Age, a cornerstone of ancient literary education, along with Homer, Demosthenes, and Menander.

  Isidora Sekulić

  Isidora Sekulić was a famous Serbian prose writer, novelist, essayist, adventurer, polyglot and art critic. Sekulić's lyrical, meditative, introspective and analytical writings come at the dawn of Serbian prose writing. Sekulić is concerned with the human condition of man in his new, thoroughly modern sensibility. In her main novel, The Chronicle of a Small Town Cemetery (Кроника паланачког гробља), she writes in opposition to the usual chronological development of events. Instead, each part of the book begins in the cemetery, eventually returning to the time of bustling life, with all its joys and tragedies. Characters such as Gospa Nola, are the first strong female characters in Serbian literature, painted in detail in all their courage,

  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

  Milutin Uskoković

  Srpski književnik; pisao je pripovetke i romane; lirski temperament, sa priličnom dozom sentimentalnosti; mada je pokušao da stvori beogradski društveni roman, ulazeći u dramatične sudare ličnosti sa gradskom sredinom, više je davao unutrašnja stanja naših intelektualaca nego kompleksnu sliku vremena i sredine; u njegovoj literaturi osetna je protivrečnost između starinskog romantizma i modernog shvatanja života i sveta. Potresen tragedijom svoga naroda 1915. godine, izvršio je samoubistvo.
  
  Dela: "Crtice", "Pod životom" i "Vitae fragmenta"; zbirka pripovedaka "Kad ruže cvetaju"; romani "Došljaci" i "Čedomir Ilić".
