Matija Ban (Serbian Cyrillic: Матија Бан; 6 December 1818 – 14 March 1903) was a Serbo-Croatian poet, dramatist, and playwright. He is known as one of the earliest proponents of the Serb-Catholic movement in Dubrovnik.
Ban was born in Petrovo Selo near Dubrovnik, then in the Kingdom of Dalmatia in the Austrian Empire, now in Croatia.[1] Matija Ban settled in Serbia in 1844. He is commonly regarded as being the first to use the term "Yugoslav", in a poem in 1835.[2] In 1848 he came from Serbia to Dalmatia to study the state of national sentiment there. He is known for his Romanticist popular tragedies.
