Life.
Born into the local nobility of Ragusa, he became at 20 a member of the Great Council of the "Republic of Ragusa" and set about fulfilling the duties that fell to him as an aristocrat. With Amalteo and Nascimbeni he founded a literary academy
with the erupting expressiveness of a voice of sorrow and happiness.
He wrote mostly in Italian but also in Croatian. His verses were collected by his friends, and they were first published with the title "Rime amorose, pastorali e satiriche del magnifico Savino de Bobali Sordo, Gentiluomo Raguseo", by Aldine Press in Venice in 1589, four years after his death. The collection was reprinted in Ragusa in 1783.
