Writers marked with a single asterisk (*) have biographies in:

Vasa D. Mihailovich, ed., Dictionary of Literary Biography, vol. 147,
South Slavic Writers Before World War II (New York: Gale, 1995).

Those with a double asterisk (**) are in:

These may be read along with the literary excepts from the anthology;
students will be assigned to make oral reports on individual writers.
Grades are based on class attendance and participation, including oral
reports (50%), midterm and final examinations (30%), and for
undergraduates a written book report and for graduates a research
paper (20%). Books for reports and topics for papers should be cleared
with the instructor beforehand.
