Milan Begović

Biography

Milan Begović (1876–1948) was a Croatian writer, born in Vrlika, in the territory of today's Croatia. He was educated in Split, Zagreb and Vienna and spent some time as high school professor in Split before moving to Hamburg and Vienna to pursue career in theatre. Begović wrote stories and novels, but remains best known for his plays. The best known titles are Pustolov pred vratima (Adventurer at the Door) and Amerikanska jahta u splitskoj luci (American Yacht in Split Harbour). He also wrote the lyrics for a famous Croatian opera Ero s onoga svijeta (Ero the Joker, literally Ero from the other world). With the establishment of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in 1945, the Writers' Society of Croatia judged that Begović had collaborated with the war-time Independent State of Croatia. Begović died in Zagreb in 1948 and, due to his falling out with the regime, his death was neither announced nor given special honours.
