Serbian and Montenegrin writers discuss Jesus in recent essays

One essay, published in Serbia, reflects on the biblical feeding miracle of five loaves and two fish, quoting the Gospel of Matthew and referencing author Zoran Živković’s creative‑writing course and his thoughts on literary reputation after death. The piece blends the biblical narrative with commentary on the popularity of Jesus and the writer’s own literary perspective.

A separate essay from Montenegro, authored by Andrej Nikolaidis, adopts a satirical tone toward tourists and uses a series of analogies involving Jesus, animals, and cultural expectations. It questions tourist behavior, references historical figures, and mixes religious imagery with contemporary social critique.

Both writings are cultural commentaries that employ religious references to explore literary, social, and tourist‑related themes.
