Summary/Abstract: People have migrated for centuries for various reasons, primarily guided by the idea of prosperity and happiness. Migration is attractive because it distributes a state without continuity, even if it is not phenomenon of modern times. Is there a happy literary migration? Certainly the question we re asking is not new, and the answers to it have been divided. As many examples show (Aleksandar Hemon or Semezdin Mehmedinović), migration and languages otside the motherland often produce ''more fruitful'' authors, who acts as ''figures of merging'' among cultures.
