Marián Gálik

Jozef Marián Gálik ( 21 February 1933 – 27 September 2024) was a Slovak Sinologist, comparatist and literary theorist.

Born in Igram in western Slovakia (then a constituent of Czechoslovakia), he was a student of Jaroslav Průšek at Charles University in Prague between 1953 and 1958. He studied at Peking University between 1958 and 1960, and thereafter was a member of the Slovak Academy of Sciences. Well-known for his studies on modern Chinese literature,[1][2][3] his pathbreaking early research on Mao Dun was succeeded by studies including on the reception of Goethe, Nietzsche, and the Bible in China.[4]

A winner of the Humboldt Award in 2003,[5] his nomination hailed him as "one of the last great scholars of Europe who has a universal education at his disposal."[6]
