Branko Radičević (Serbian Cyrillic: Бранко Радичевић, Serbian pronunciation: [brǎːŋko radǐːtʃeʋitɕ]; 18 March 1824 – 18 June 1853), an influential Serbian poet, within a short space of time contrived to enhance Serbian literature with several perennially attractive poems.

Branko Radičević was born in Slavonski Brod on the 15th of March 1824. Aleksije was his baptismal name before he changed it to Branko, a more common Serbian name. He finished high school in Sremski Karlovci, the setting of his best poems. He studied in Vienna^{[citation needed]}. In 1847 Radičević's first book of poetry appeared, announcing a new era in Serbian poetry^{[citation needed]}. He went to Serbia but soon returned to Vienna to study medicine, where he was surrounded by Serb intellectuals, either living in the city or passing through, including his lifelong friend Bogoboj Atanacković, Vuk Karadžić, Đuro Daničić, Milica Stojadinović-Srpkinja, Petar II Petrović-Njegoš, and others^{[citation needed]}. Radičević's second collection of poetry was a bit weaker than the first^{[citation needed]}. He wrote after this, but never recovered his early raptures, except among the very latest of all his poems, the enchanting welcome to death, in this twenty-ninth year, entitled Kad mladijah umreti (As I Thought of Dying)^{[citation needed]}.
