Jovan Popović-Lipovac (Serbian: Јован Поповић Липовац; 14 June 1856 – 17 August 1919) was an adjutant of King Nicholas I of Montenegro, general of the Russian army, poet, travel writer and translator.[1]
Biography
editHe was born in Građani, a settlement near Cetinje, Kingdom of Montenegro, a member of the Građani tribe and the family of Đur-Đorđo Popović, a Serbian Orthodox priest. He [who?] was a famous warrior from the Balkan and Russo-Eurasian battlefields, brigadier of the Montenegrin army, adjutant of King Nikola, general of the Russian army, poet, travel writer and translator. In the uprising in Herzegovina in 1882, Jovan Popovic Lipovac was a liaison between the Serb rebels and Russia[2]. He didn't fear putting his life in danger, fighting the enemy in the Balkans nor in the Far East. Japanese newspapers also wrote about his heroism, especially the English "Daily News" and "Herald". The articles point out that General Lipovac was in the most dangerous positions throughout the Russo-Japanese War and that his exploits on many battlefields in Europe and Asia became a legend over time, as well as that he was a man of exceptional intelligence who, in addition to the Serbian language, spoke Russian, French, English and Italian.
Jovan Popović-Lipovac died in a military hospital in Paris, France. His funeral in Paris, in addition to family and friends, was attended by members of the Petrović-Njegoš royal family, official representatives of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, a representative of Imperial Russia, a representative of the French army and an envoy of the French Prime Minister Clemenceau. In 1898, Glas Crnogorac published a letter from Jovan Popović Lipovac, from Petrograd, which was a denial of the lie that he had fled from Montenegro.[3]
