Milovan Danojlić (Serbian Cyrillic: Милован Данојлић; 3 July 1937 – 23 November 2022) was a Serbian poet, essayist and literary critic best known for his children's poetry. Danojlić was a full member of the Serbian Academy of Science and Arts.

Biography

[edit]

Danojlić published his first poems in 1954, while his first independent book "Urođenički psalmi" was published in 1957.[1] He was a lecturer on the Serbo-Croatian language at the University of Poitiers from 1977 to 1978.[2]

Danojlić was a selected artist of the Fulbright program Artist-in-residence at the UMass Amherst from 1980 to 1981.[3][4]

In 1982, he was a founding member of the Committee for the Protection of Artistic Freedom (Odbor za zaštitu umetničke slobode), together with Biljana Jovanović, Dragoslav Mihailović and others. Since 1984, he alternately lived as freelance writer in Paris and Belgrade, and worked as occasional freelance associate at Radio France. In 1989, he was a member of the Founding Committee of the Democratic Party (together with his writer colleagues Borislav Pekić, Gojko Đogo and Dušan Vukajlović), which was the first Yugoslav opposition and non-communist party since 1945.[5][6]

Danojlić published more than 70 books of fiction and poetry in the Serbian language. His most famous books are: Neka vrsta cirkusa (Some kind of circus); Lične stvari - ogledi o sebi i o drugima (Personal things - reflections on yourself and others) and Balada o siromaštvu (Balad on poverty).

Danojlić was a member of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts from 2000, and president of the Serbian Literary Guild since 2013.[7]

Danojlić was married to Sanja Bošković (born in Sarajevo, living in France since 1988), and was the father of two sons (born 1992 and 1993).[8][9][10]

Danojlić died in Paris on 23 November 2022, at the age of 85.[11]
