My favourite Slavic writers, artists etc.

Here's my list of my favourite Slavic writers, artists, actors etc. Sorry for English (I'll dub it in Russian :)).

Вот мой список моих любимых славянских писателей, художников, актёров и т.д.:

Писатели: Фёдор Достоевский Алексей Ремизов Фёдор Сологуб Юрий Мамлеев Николай Лесков Ярослав Гашек Даниил Хармс

Художники: Альфонс Муха Мстислав Добужинский Иван Билибин Михаил Нестеров

Режиссёры: Алексей Балабанов, Эмир Кустурица Андрей Вайда Никитав Михалков

Жаль, не могу вспомнить более... Может, потом.

Я знаю несколько славянских писателей - но их не читал: Богомил Райнов (Болгария), Пшибышевский (Польша), Кундера (Чехословакия), Павич (Югославия).

Zajímavá otázka.

Spisovatelé : Bohumil Hrabal, Milan Kundera - před odstěhováním do Francie, Jaroslav Hašek, Jachym Topol, Dostojevský, Gogol a dál... Režiséří : Jiří Menzl, Miloš Forman (československý film šedesatich letech), Vera K (Slovenka), Roman Polanski, Pavel Lugin... Vidím spoustu tváře ale nepamatuju jména...

I Emir Kusturica...

On natočil odvaha, že ?

достоевский гогол kafka

cinema: andrzej wajda--rezyser (polski) 'obchod na korze'--film (česky)

Jsem spokojný, že jsi znovu s námi.

Co s Kafkou ? Je Pražák, ale psal pouze německy... Můžeme říct, že je slovanský umělec ? To je debata...

No a souhlasím se tebou a s Ianem : Andrzej Wajda je dobrý režisér.

A jak se jmenuje manžel Sophie Marceau ? On natočil Modrý, Bělý a Červený s herečkou Juliette Binoche...

I've read a few of the standard classics. Some are a real pain to go through, but worth it. My copy (in 2 volumes) of War an Peace seems to be 25% written in French, even in translation.

Russian is the most cosmopolitan slavic language...

well the russian nobility (well the nobility in most european countries) prefered french to their native toungues in those days. don't know why that persisted for so long as they were fighting the french for much of the 18th centuary.

Ahoj Czappel !

Witam, czapell!

does Kafka count as a Slavic writer, as he mainly did his writing in German.

Hm... I never heard of him counted as a Slavic writer. He belongs to the German culture (or some even can add, Austrian), since he originated from the Jewish German community in Prague. :)

The same awkward situation is with Leopold von Zacher-Masoch. He also wrote in German and was an Austrian subject, yet he belonged to Galician culture and therefore it's not easy to distinguish which modern culture he should be associated with: German, Austrian, Ukranian or "Galician".

Or Rilke as a Czech artist of Prague ? Well he has a German name... On the other hand, I had students called Kafka from the both sides of Czecho-Slovakia and who could not utter a single word of German...

I'd like to add to the list of great Slavic writers:

• Vladimir Nabokov - my main man, especially The Luzhin Defence and the stuff he wrote in Russian
• Joseph Conrad (the case is similar to Kafka's - did not write in his mother tongue)
• Iordan Radichkov (a Bulgarian writer who died recently)
• Tsvetan Todorov (does not write fiction, and again, just like Kafka and Joseph Conrad, does not write in his native language, but a great writer anyway - probably the only fellow Bulgarian who makes me real proud to be Bulgarian)

My favorite Slavic artist is Severina Vuckovic. She performed very well in her private home video.

Indeed*!*

Krzystof Kieslowsky - he is trully a classic, among the best directors ever.

My favorite writers are:

Jaroslav Hasek Daniil Kharms Yuri Mamleev Nikolai Leskov Fyodor Dostoevsky Fyodor Sologub Remizov....
