Andrea Bogdani (Albanian: Andrea Bogdani; ca. 1600–1683) was an Ottoman scholar of Albanian origin and prelate of the Roman Catholic Church.
Life
Andrea Bogdani was born at the beginning of the 17th century, in Gur i Hasit, near Prizren, Ottoman Empire (modern-day Kosovo). Bogdani was educated by Jesuits at the Illyrian College in Loreto.[2]
After completing his education in Loreto, he became a parish in Pristina.[3] From 1656 to 1677, when he resigned he served as Archbishop of Skopje, while from 1675 to 1677 he also served as apostolic administrator of Achrida.[4] On 8 November 1677 Bogdano resigned because of illness.[5] His nephew Petro Bogdano, one of the best-known writers of early Albanian literature succeeded him as Archbishop of Skopje in 1677. Andrea Bogdano has become known for writing the first Latin-Albanian grammar book.[6]
Serbian historian Samardžić criticized Bogdani's works as forgery and revisionism of the Serbian medieval history.[7] Bogdani distinguished himself as great enemy of Serbs.[8] He considered Orthodox Serbs as enemies of Catholics and wrote that the Orthodox Serbs in Kosovo, while also being protected by the Ottomans, were trying to extract money from the Catholics.[9][10]
