The paper deals with Jovan Radulović’s (1951‒2010) essays, dedicated to selected Serbian writers and to some important individuals from the Serbian past, mostly from Dalmatia, Radulović’s homeland. The focus is put on the texts about Stojan Janković (Mitrović), Gerasim Zelić, Simo Matavulj, Sava Bjelanović, Mirko Korolija, Marija Ilić- Agapova, Vladan Desnica, which were mostly written as prefaces for editions of their works or given as speeches on the occasion of certain anniversaries, as well as on the occa- sion of prestigious literary awards ceremonies (“Bora Stanković”, “Petar Kočić”, “Branko Ćopić”, “Golden Sunflower” awards). The analyzed texts reveal deep poetic connections of Radulović’s work with the ones of the writers in question, as well as his ability to, us- ing short forms, such as essays, highlight the essential artistic and poetic characteristics of their works.
