from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Harambaša (Hajduks-captain) from the westherzegowinisch - Dalmatian border area with typical features (abdominal binder: Kubura and Handzar . Left hand: Čibuk .. Left shoulder: Turk musket )

Ivan Bušić (* around 1745 in Gorica near Grude , Sandschak Herzegovina , Ottoman Empire , † April 1, 1783 in Ilijino polje near Neum ), because of his red hair in Venetian documents in Italian Rosso , popularly called Rošo / Roša in Croatian , was a leader ( harambaša ) from Heiducken in Herzegovina and the neighboring area around Imotski ( Imotska krajina ), during theOttoman rule . His adventurous life and heathenism have left their mark on Croatian , Turkish and Venetian documents and folk songs .

Live and act

Bušić came from a Catholic family. At first he belonged to a Heiduck troupe under the leadership of the orthodox Stanislav "Stanko" Sočivica (* 1715). Later Bušić himself led a heathen troop of 33 men, including a Muslim . Bušić usually attacked caravans that took the route from Glamoč and Kupres to Mostar and Stolac .

Before 1776 he was a mercenary in Italy for two to three years , and in 1778 in Rome , apparently in papal service . During the journey with an English sailing ship from Livorno , Bušić was taken prisoner in Spain for three months . In Cádiz he hired on the ship of Petar Dabović from Dobrota and sailed for two years to North Africa and Western Europe . During this time in Spanish service, he was captured by the English in Gibraltar and entered royal service via Rome to Naples .

In 1782 Bušić returned to his homeland. He was killed on April 1, 1783 by a man named Rade Krešić in Ilijino polje (today in Neum ).

Afterlife

Several traditional folk and Gusl songs are dedicated to Bušić .

Among other things, in 1928 the writer and Nobel Prize laureate Ivo Andrić processed part of the life story of Hajduk Roša in his story Ispovijed (German "The Confession", 1939 and 1962).

Bušić's alleged descendant, the writer and political activist Bruno Bušić (1939–1978), summarized the most important reports about him in a book (see literature).
