Vid Došen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vid Došen (1719–1778) was a Croatian poet and Catholic priest.
He was born in Tribanj around 1719 to a well known immigrant Bunjevac family Došen, which was originally from Herzegovina. He became a priest in 1744, and subsequently learned the Glagolitic script so he could perform his duties in the parishes of the Diocese of Nin. He was then schooled in Križevci and Zagreb, transferring over to the Diocese of Zagreb. He served in Požega at first, where he also acted as professor at the academy there. After 1776, he went to Dubovik (Podcrkavlje), where he lived until his death on 6 April 1778.[1]
