- Every country has other writers who could be on this list. Many of these writers lived in several countries, spoke several languagesand came from mixed families so that they can be considered to belong to more than one nation or state.
An average selection, bearing in mind that Ivo ANDRÍC is Serbian, Milan KUNDERA and Tristan TZARA are French, that the best-known Finnish writer is Frans Eemil SILLANPÄÄ and the best-known Swedish writer is August STRINBERG, and that we don't really know if the Greek HOMERE really existed?
Irelands is Oscar wilde, easily
That all European countries 😊 Anna Bhau Sathe is most famous writer from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
The thing with Salomėja Nėris is that she's not the most famous but rather the most infamous. After all she went to Moscow to bring Stalin's Sun. She betrayed the country to communists because she was so god damn inexperienced, naïve and gullible romantic who realised her mistakes only late in life right before her death. Her topic is so difficult that even after 80 years since her death people are still arguing whether she should be hated or forgiven. I'd say that the most famous would be Maironis since there isn't a Lithuanian who wouldn't know him and he's considered one of the fathers of Lithuanian literature
P.S. Even though I'm not Ukrainian but I think that a much better choise would've been Taras Shevchenko, having in mind that in Ukraine he's considered to be a national poet and a sort of hero. Gogol is Ukrainian, yes, but he always considered himself to be Russian and, if I'm not wrong, was kinda embarased by his Ukrainian heritage. He even suported Russian imperialism
And Shakespear is the most famous *English* writer. UK didn't exist back then, let alone union between England and Scotland. I think, you should've listed him as English and then provided Scottish and Welsh writers separately
I'm really excited about who is the russian guy ... . Yes, for me too, Dostoevsky >= Tolstoi.
3:10 thats not the russian flag
Yep, I made an error, forgot to change it, It was not intentional :)
@@historycomparisonvideos If you ever do a revised version :
Greek Herodotus (484 - 420 BC)
Irish Jonathan Swift (1667 - 1745)
Swiss Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712 1778)
Herodotus is from Turkey
Bodrum, Turkey was a Greek city back then. Authors represent their culture, not modern political borders.
