CROAT SUPPORTER OF GREAT SERBIA – DANKO ANGJELINOVIĆ

Ivan Pederin

Abstract

Danko Angjelinović and most of his brothers was a political militant who opposed the imperial and royal rule in Dalmatian Croatia during the period of the Balkan Wars on the eve of WWI. Most of his co/militants became Croat separatists or federalists after the war
but not Angjelinović who sided openly and wholeheartedly with Yugoslav integralism as did the Serbs and continued to behave in such a manner after 1945. Most of the politicians who opposed Austria and the Italian occupation of 1919 were persecuted after 1945. Some of them fled abroad, others were confined in concentration camps, some were murdered but Angjelinović survived and received support from Živko Jeličić. This support was official.
His poetry shows the influence of Surrealism while many of his poems are permeated byYugoslav patriotism which is detrimental to their aesthetic value.
