49. International Day of the Book

A tradition followed on 23rd April in Catalonia of gifting a rose and a book may have inspired UNESCO to declare this the International Day of the Book. The other more important reason why this day was chosen is that two famous authors both died on this day in 1616 (one according to the Julian calendar and the other according to the Gregorian).

Name both.
