Sažetak
On the ground of the letters by Jovan Sundečić (Montenegrian poet, priest, counselor and diplomat) sent to the bishop of the Diocese of Bosnia or Đakovo and Srijem, Josip Juraj Strossmayer in the period from 1881 to 1887, the author portrayed the relationship between these two men, which was based on the same »South-Slav« worldview. The letters show the great affection and friendship
Jovan Sundečić felt for bishop Strossmayer. The majority of the letters from this period mainly address the issues related to the conclusion of the concordat between the Holy See and Montenegro, where Sundečić acted as a mediator of sorts between the Montenegrin Prince Nicholas I Petrovic and bishop Josip Juraj Strossmayer. The letters serve as a relevant source of information
on Croatian-Montenegrin relations at the highest diplomatic level, as well as an important source for understanding the religious and political issues concerning the Balkan Peninsula in the second half of the 19th century.
