Students! Here are several bibliographies on works about history, politics and culture, and a selection of English translations (novels, short stories, poetry) from the Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian, a list of literary periodicals and reference works on culture. The entries below marked in red refer to subjects and authors mentioned in the Textbook.

After some of the entries you will find bracketed references to the national membership of the author [B - Bosnian, C - Croatian, J - Jewish, M - Montenegrin, S - Serbian, Y - Yugoslav]. These designations must be taken with a grain of salt. Some writers declare their membership unambiguously in one of the national literary traditions, while others make it clear that they do not place much, or, indeed, any stock in national membership. And there are yet others whose feelings about this change over time. For the purposes of this website, the designations are meant to serve as a rudimentary form of guidance for students wanting to read further in the cultures related to the language or languages they have chosen for study among Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian.
