Magdalena Magu Nikolić-Živanović

poet Bosnia and Herzegovina

Magdalena Magu Nikolić-Živanović was the first female poet from Bijeljina, known for her emotional and patriotic poetry. Born into a well-off family, her life and works were deeply influenced by her unfulfilled love for the poet Jovan Dučić. Their relationship was fraught with obstacles, as her family opposed their union due to Dučić's modest status as a teacher. Despite the challenges, she continued to write, signing her poems under the pseudonym Maga Ž. Her works were considered modern and avant-garde for their time, filled with lyrical sensitivity. Magu's enduring love for Dučić lingered throughout her life, and she remained unmarried, cherishing the memory of their love until her death in 1956.
