Jovan Dučić
Jovan Dučić was a prominent Bosnian-Herzegovinian writer and editor, born on February 5 or 15, 1871, in Trebinje. He is celebrated as one of the leading poets and philosophers of the early 20th century, known for his profound lyrical works such as 'Carski soneti' and 'Dubrovačke pjesme.' Dučić's literary journey began in Mostar, where he co-founded a literary circle and launched the magazine 'Zora.' His life was marked by his passionate yet tragic love for poetess Magdalena Magu Nikolić-Živanović, which significantly influenced his poetry. Dučić spent part of his life in Paris and Geneva, further enriching his literary prowess. He died on April 7, 1943, in the United States, and his wish to be buried in Trebinje was fulfilled posthumously in 2000.
