Ljubomir Nedić
Ljubomir Nedić ( sr, Љубомир Недић; 25 April 1858 – 29 July 1902) was a Serbian philosopher and literary critic. Having received academic training in philosophy at the University of Leipzig, Nedić taught at the Belgrade Higher School beginning in 1885, after having defended his doctorate thesis on Sir William Hamilton's logic.

His criticisms were controversial during his time and targeted many highly respected Serbian writers such as Jovan Jovanović Zmaj, Laza Kostić and Milan Milićević. Nedić advocated an interpretation of literary works with minimal attention to biographic and social circumstances in which they arose. Despite his innovative and modern approach to Serbian literature, Nedić has been criticized for his lack of academic training in literary criticism, as well as his subjective and overly critical assessments of his political opponents, influenced by his staunc ...
