I wish that, if you could all have a greater understanding both for yourself and for others and the different, that together we stand in the way of prejudices and illusions that we have nurtured for centuries.
Interview
German-Bosnian Poet Ernad Dedovic
By Azad Karimi
In this introduction, I prefer to commit myself to write about the future, to writing my heart's desire. This is my wish, the wish of Ernad and millions of people in the world. Ernad my dear friend and colleague writes:
I wish that if you could all have a greater understanding both for yourself and for others and the different, that together we stand in the way of prejudices and illusions that we have nurtured for centuries.
The word bigotry often reminds us of religious and racial issues, but it can also apply to other areas such as mythological honor, women, love, class, ancestors, traditions, and the history of the past. I talked about women. The traditional view of male to female ownership continues to be a disaster in the world.
This proprietary view of woman stems from love or from insanity-obsession or social (religious-customary) teachings and my intention is to highlight the name of the woman in this article for today's occasion, which is March 8, International Women's Day.
The thinkers of a society publish their ideas for the progress of the society. But this alone is not enough, the society must be ready for the growth of such thoughts. This is done by government planning through the expansion of individual-social freedoms, the development of welfare, and the creation of national solidarity. Two phobias make social backwardness: the thinker's fear of creating anarchy through a lack of precise understanding of his-her thoughts by people and Government's fear of social change through the dissemination of the thoughts of real thinkers.
Of course, these two phobias are rooted in the intolerance of totalitarian governments, otherwise what is the harm of spreading progressive thought?
Thinkers are human capitals, and blessed are the countries that make good use of this potential and that is why I admire West’s democracy, with its occasional flaws, because it is a great practical method of economic, cultural, and social development.
I will not prolong the discussion, I ask the dear readers to pay attention to the text of the interview between me and my dear friend Ernad. I wish him success and happiness.
Thank you!

1- Please present yourself (Name, education, job, Civil status and...)
.My name is Ernad Dedovic, born in Germany in 1996. I am a writer and a poet. I graduated from college as an IT engineer. I am not currently employed, I am trying to build my literary career but I also make plans in the IT profession.
2-what is your cultural specialize?
.The cultures I was most influenced by are Eastern cultures. I'm in love with their style of the poetry and literature,I also love their way of life and how they have preserved their tradition I hope to one day have the opportunity to go there and study.
3- When and how did you become interested in this field of culture?
.From birth I was raised to practice and learn about these cultures but it is only at the age of 22 that I truly fall in love by discovering their wisdom and history.
4- Who was your motivator?
.My motivators were from my country, Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as others from the east. Meša Selimović, Abdulah Sidran, Nedžad Ibrišimović, Rumi, Nasurudin Albani, Sina, Abbas, Barr, etc ...
5- What was your parent's reaction?
.Obviously my parents raised me that way, of course they had neither a bad nor a strange reaction. They are glad, of course. We just disagree in some opinions, because I really like to explore deeply and controversially.
6- When started you such as a professional Author-Poet?
.I started building my authoring career from my 21-22. years through blogs and various social networks. When I had enough material to publish the book, I made the first serious move. I took the book to the Literary Club, and at the end of 2019 I am publishing my first book of poetry, since then I have started to take writing more seriously, and I have decided that I want to expand and build more there. I also started publishing my works for various blogs, magazines and portals, and I also write for two portals.
7- Are you thankful and happy because of your activities as an Author- Writer-Poet?
.Of course I did, since I didn’t expect to succeed at all in this. Of course it could be better, and I sincerely hope it will be, I really want to do this my whole life, I enjoy this, I have a lot of plans, and a lot of ideas for books, both for books of poetry and for novels, short stories, etc.
8- How you see the view, the future of literature, culture? You are an writer, you should have a opinion...
.I honestly don't know what to expect in the future, considering that now there is a scene of sci-fi, love dramas and genres of positive thinking, I think this is the highlight, and that this is the only way to continue writing. The authors are very creative, it’s endless imagination, but I think everyone will want a classic, so we might go back to that way of writing.
9- Can you become one part of the cultural movement for motivation in youth or new generation in your country and so than?
.It’s honestly a big wish of mine, my many plans are geared towards that. That is the greatest boon. It will be difficult in the beginning, because no one wants to support such projects, but there are good people with whom I need and want to meet and start something like this. I can not wait. I like to provide and show other perspectives, both on this and other segments of life.
10- How can you help our world become a better place for living?
.First of all, through action, good deeds, humanitarian actions, projects to raise awareness and desire for culture and art because man is the true and unique art, the art of the creator. We must transfer that wisdom and grace to our micro world.Only then can people be truly happy, satisfied and useful to each other, which is a simple life formula and essence.
11- Have you more word to say or suggestion for our readers?
.Yes I have. I wish that, if you could all have a greater understanding both for yourself and for others and the different, that together we stand in the way of prejudices and illusions that we have nurtured for centuries. We are all impatient, eager for someone’s failure to justify our inability to live and our dissatisfaction.Let’s help each other in all fields, and let’s not ask too much. If we are not saved now, no one else will come for us. Thank you, and I wish you all the best.
