Sažetak
Author of this article reveals life, education and activities of Glagolitic priest don Jerko Kuzmić Šimić from Sutomišćica (island of Ugljan), who was born circa 1726 and died on 4th December 1793. Moreover, author tracks his activities in various confraternities, his records of sermons, testaments and other writings. It is interesting to note Šimić’s inscriptions on the inner side of bindings of Missal that is presently kept in the Parish house of Biograd. These inscriptions contain his observations regarding weather, hardships, famine,
infectious diseases and other important events between 1781 and 1791, which was time of his parochial office in Sukošan. His last will, written just before his death in 1793, is also well preserved. It is quite probable that don Jerko started his education in Sutomišćica,
and that his first teacher was local parish priest. Afterwards, he continued education at the Franciscan monastery at Školjić (Galevac), which was maintained by Franciscan third order of St Paul monastery. It seems that this school was local central school for deacons. During his education don Jerko undoubtedly came across Glagolitic manuscripts that were written in this region, and some of them are still preserved. On the basis of the text analysis and comparison with all the preserved Glagolitic writings and codices, author attests that five sermons and scripture called »Oficij imena Marijinog« (Office of Mary’s name), presently kept in the Archives of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts in Zagreb, are written by don Jerko Kuzmić Šimić.
