Erih Koš (Erich Kosch; Serbian Cyrillic: Ерих Кош) (April 15, 1913 – May 25, 2010)[1] was a Yugoslav politician, journalist, writer and translator. He was one of the founders of Pobjeda, the oldest Montenegrin daily.[2]
Biography
He was born in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina (then a condominium in Austria-Hungary). He graduated from the University of Belgrade's Law School and was active as a lawyer from 1935.[3][4] In 1941, he participated in the resistance fight and held many different political-cultural positions during and after the Second World War in communist Yugoslavia.[4] In Nikšić in 1944, he was one of the founders and one of the first journalists working for the Pobjeda.[2] As a journalist, he was also associated with Oslobođenje.[3]
Koš wrote mainly novels and narrations, which treat topics of the resistance or problems in Yugoslav society. In addition to his writing, Koš translated Goethe and Chamisso into Serbo-Croatian. In 1967, he won the NIN Prize for his novel Mreža (The Net).[5]
In 1978, he was elected as a member of Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts in the Department of Language and Literature.[6][7]
