- Abstract
The recovery of the poem in Croatian language about the building of the sailing vessel "Pirro S" owned by the shipowner family Sbutega from Prčanj, Boka kotorska, has proved once again the tradition of Croatian popular literature. It is, first of all the tradition of composition of occasional verse on the occasion of some important events. The poem and the letter which are discussed in this paper is by all means composed by Nikola Ostojić (1803. - 1869.), one of the leader of national renaissance movement of the island of Korčula. The poem on the launching of the sailing vessel „Pirro S“ is discussed from the point of view of the tradition of Croatian occasional verse of the 19th century. It is a valuable language monument of the continuity of Croatian written word at the turning point of Croatian national integration into Dalmatia, thus continuing the tradition of Dubrovnik literary circle.
