Life and work
[edit]Sima Milutinović was born inSarajevo,Ottoman Empirein 1791, hence his nickname Sarajlija (The Sarajevan). His father Milutin[4]was from the village ofRožanstvonearUžice,[5]which he left running away from theplagueand eventually settled in Sarajevo, where he was married.[6]
When Sarajlija was a child, the family fled the town seeking because of a plague. They sought refuge at several locations in Bosnia andSlavonski Brodbefore ending up inZemun,where Sima commenced primary education which he never completed. He attended a school inSzegedand was later expelled fromgymnasiuminSremski Karlovci.[7]
During theFirst Serbian Uprisinghe was ascribeinKarađorđe'sGoverning Council(Praviteljstvujušći Sovjet). Sarajlija joined a guerilla group commanded by hajdukZeka Buljubaša.[8]It was in the heat of battles withOttoman Turksthat his first poems germinated. They were mostly lovesongs, inspired by his first great love - Fatima.[9]After the collapse of theFirst Serbian Uprisinghe was ahajdukand teacher inVidin.He also spent a year or two in a Turkish dungeon. After evading the Turks, he went toChişinău(then part ofImperial Russia), where he remained, long enough to writeThe Serbian Maid.It is said that he sent reports toconfidantsofMiloš Obrenović I, Prince of SerbiaconcerningKarađorđe's followers in exile. In 1825 he went toGermanywhere he enrolled in theUniversity of Leipzig,though he did not tarry there. Instead, a year later, he went back toSerbiato be a clerk in the employ of Prince Miloš but on arriving inZemun,however, he turned about and went toTrieste,Kotor,and thenCetinje.
He arrived inCetinjeon 25 September 1827, and the Bishop of Montenegro took him in as a secretary.[10]He also went among the tribes to dispense justice and settle disputes and took upon himself the education of Bishop's nephew Rade (Petar II Petrović-Njegoš). In 1829Bjelicetribe struggled againstOzrinićiandKuće,two neighboring tribes, and his former pupilPetar II Petrović-Njegošsent Sarajlija and Mojsije to negotiate peace among them.[11]Sarajlija remained in Cetinje for more than three years, until the spring of 1831. He came to Montenegro for another three times.
In 1836, he escorted Prince Miloš toConstantinopleand went on to travel toPrague,ViennaandBudapest.He remained a while in Budapest and married Marija Popović-Punktatorka[12](1810–1875), who was also a poet.
