Summary/Abstract: Poetical originality and observed encyclopedic knowing of cultural and historical paradigms have put Predrag Matvejević among the most recognizable and signiicant South Slavic essayists and experts of cultural and anthropological questions. We can recognize Matvejević’s aesthetic orientation in the marginal genre determinant – travelogue essay in which the whole range of philosophical, literary, historical, cultural, anthropological and other topics are relected. He was one of the most translated authors with inconceivable inluence to cultural, historical and literary lows of European literature. With his moral and intellectual proile, Hanifa Kapidžić-Osmanagić also recognizes ebullient lyrical spirit. In this paper I want to write about essayistic-travelogue books Mediterranean: A Cultural Landscape and Our Daily Bread, and about Matvejević’s recognizable Mediterranean melancholy, as well.
