Josip Jurčič (4 March 1844 – 3 May 1881) was a Slovene writer and journalist. He was born in Muljava, Austrian Empire (now part of the municipality of Ivančna Gorica, Slovenia).[1] Josip Jurčič followed the literary program proposed by Fran Levstik and was one of the most influential Slovene literary realists.[citation needed] Jurčič died on 3 May 1881 in Ljubljana.[1]
The 13 km (8.1 mi) Jurčič Trail (Slovene: Jurčičeva pot) from Višnja Gora (where he attended primary school) to Muljava is named after him. The house where he was born is now an open-air museum.
