Abstract

Oskar Tartaglia (1887-1950) was one of the leaders of the young nationalist movement in the period 1910-1914, which aimed at the creation of a Yugoslavian state. During World War I he was imprisoned by the Austro-Hungarian authorities. After the establishment of the Yugoslav state he was again active as a journalist and writer. Politically he supported the creation of a unified Yugoslav nation. During World War II he was imprisoned by the Italians. He started supporting Tito’s partisan movement and considered them as a force that will successfully reestablish Yugoslav state. He was soon disillusioned after the imprisonment of his brother by the new Communist authorities. Oskar Tartaglia was himself sent to prison for several weeks.
