The Letters of Metropolitan of Karlovci Vićentije Popović from Vienna (1719-1720)

Summary/Abstract: In 1719 and 1720 Metropolitan of Karlovci Vićentije Popović had been in Vienna. His intention was to get the answer of the Emperor Karl VI on Serb complains referred to the abuse of Empire officials and officers during the tax collection. While staying in Vienna, Metropolitan Vićentije led correspondence with Archdeacon Vasilije Dimitrijević, who was in Karlovci at that time. Only 5 letters that Metropolitan sent to Archdeacon are preserved today, and they are kept in the Archive of the Serbian Academy of Science and Arts, in Belgrade. Letters of Metropolitan Vićentije Popović provide valuable information about the way that Habsburg authorities dealt with the Serb complains and petitions, about people that he met with, about problems of the inhabitants in Metropolis of Karlovci, and other.
