August Ivan Nepomuk Eduard Senoa originally Schönoa; 14 November 1838 – 13 December 1881 was a Croatian novelist. Born to an ethnic German and Slovak family, Senoa became a key figure in the development of an independent literary tradition in Croatian and shaping the emergence of the urban Croatian identity of Zagreb and its surroundings at a time when Austrian control was weaning. He was a literary transitional figure, who helped bring Croatian literature from Romanticism to Realism and introduced the historical novel to Croatia.
