Summary/Abstract: Sibe Miličić has one of the most mysterious of literary fates. His life as a poet, story teller, novelist, painter and diplomat is filled with many mysterious stories and unknowns. One of the unknown facts is related to the poem collection Deset pjesama o partizanima (Ten poems about partisans). There are two versions of that collection. One was printed in Bari in 1944, and the other, in a typewritten manuscript, was dedicated to Mrs. Desa Avellini. Their comparison, depicted as documents of a specific time and social and literary practice, shows an entire depth of redactional (ideological) interventions.
