Biography

Šinko was born in Apatin to a Jewish[2][3] family on 5 October 1898. He attended elementary school in Apatin and gymnasium in Subotica. During World War I, in 1917, Šinko was mobilized and in 1918 he participated in the establishment of the Hungarian Soviet Republic.[1] At the center of his literary occupation were the topics and questions about the Hungarian Revolution. Šinko worked writing for many Hungarian magazines such as: A Tett,[1] Ma,[1] Internationale,[1] Tüz, Korunk, Nyugat, and others. He moved to Vienna where, in 1924, he published the magazine Testvér. Šinko also lived in Zürich, Moscow, and Paris. While in Paris, his articles were published in L'Europe, Le Monde and Ce Soir. In 1939, he moved to Zagreb, where he lived until World War II. During the war, he escaped to Dalmatia, where he was arrested and imprisoned by the Italian Fascists. After the capitulation of Italy and liberation, Šinko joined the Partisans. In 1945, he moved back to Zagreb, where stayed for the rest of his life. Šinko was member of the Yugoslav Academy of Sciences and Arts from 1950 and as a regular member since 1960.[1] He also was a member of the Croatian Writers Society. In 1946, he began to devote his energies to literary studies and writings on public affairs. In 1959, he became professor and director of the Hungarian department at Novi Sad University.[4][5]
