Llukë Bogdani
Llukë Bogdani was an Ottoman poet of Albanian origin.Life
Born near Prizren he studied in the Catholic school of Yanova, joined the Austrian forces during the Great Turkish War under the guidance of his cousin Archbishop Pjetër Bogdani and died near Kaçanik in 1687. An eight-line poem titled Pjetër Bogdanit, argjupeshkëpit Skupsë, kushërinit tim dashunit and written by Llukë Bogdani was published in the first version Cuneus Prophetarum in 1685. Pjetër Bogdani apparently polished the verses of panegyric improvised by Llukë. In later versions of the work the poem was removed as it was considered laudatory, and thus religiously inappropriate.
