Juraj Matija Šporer or Đuro Matija Šporer[1] or George Sporer or Đuro Matić Šporer (1795–1884) was a Croatian physician and writer who was one of the forerunners of the Illyrian movement.[2] Šporer was the first Croatian person who attempted to publish a native 'Illyrian' language newspaper. His attempts failed because of the complete lack of interest for newspaper published in his native language.
Family, education and professional career
[edit]Šporer was born in Karlovac in 1795 in Habsburg monarchy.[3] His father Josip, originally from Bribir,[4] was the first mayor of Karlovac under French control (as part of the Illyrian Provinces), appointed directly by Napoleon[5] and one of the first Freemasons in Karlovac.[6]
Šporer began attending the gymnasium in Zagreb, continued in Senj and completed it in Zagreb. He graduated with a degree in medicine and philosophy at University of Vienna and received the status of physician in 1819.[3] Šporer worked as a physician in Karlovac, Bakar, Rijeka, Split, Klagenfurt and Ljubljana.[1][7] After he was retired in 1851 he moved to Rijeka where he lived until his death on 1 August 1884.[8]
Bibliography
[edit]Under the influence of his father and against the approval of Austrian emperor Francis II, in 1818 Šporer was the first Croatian person who made an attempt to publish a newspaper (Oglasnik Ilirski) in his native (Serbo-Croatian: domorodnom) language. His plans were to publish it in Vienna twice per week.[9][10] In this attempt he was supported by Aleksa Praunsperger from Samobor and Aleksa Vancuš from Zagreb.[11] He failed to realize his idea to publish this magazine because of the complete lack of interest in a newspaper published in his native language.[12][13][verification needed] In 1823 he published "Almanah Ilirski" in Karlovac.[1] He signed his name as Matić.[14]
In 1849 Šporer published his tragedy on Skanderbeg (Kastriota Škenderbeg: tugokazie u pet izvedah) and depicted Skanderbeg as Slav who united all South Slavs from Istria to Krujë.[15]
