Description
Summary:The Non-aligned countries have always played an important part in Yugoslav foreign policy, but the cooperation between Yugoslav and these countries’ writers have been falling behind their collaboration in other fields. It was established much later, and its function was less effective, although Yugoslav Literary Society members were aware of the importance of a lucrative partnership with the non-aligned. Mostly during the seventies, Asian and African writers have been visiting literary conventions across Yugoslavia (Belgrade October Get-togethers, Poetry Nights in Struga, Literary Talks in Zagreb, Poetry Days in Sarajevo…). This was an important encouragement to the cooperation initiative. With some countries, collaboration was carried out even at a higher level which resulted in mutual visits and book translations. This was in particular the case with India. Especially prominent in this partnership were Čedomir Minderović and Grozdana Olujić of Yugoslavia, and Amrita Pritam and Sachchidanand Hiranand Vatsyayan of India.
