Prince [1] Toma Vučić Perišić ( Serbian Cyrillic: Тома Вучић Перишић; 1787 – 13 July 1859) was a Serbian politician, military leader during the Serbian Revolution, Freemason and one of the most powerful and influential individuals in Serbia of the 19th century. [2] He was Miloš Obrenović's most virulent opponent, and an ally of the Karađorđević Dynasty [3] [4] [5] [6] with Avram Petronijević and Ilija Garašanin and other so-called Constitutionalists ( Dimitrije Davidović, Aleksa Simić, Stojan Simić, Milutin Savić). [7] He wanted to bring rule of law and an effective administrative system in the Principality of Serbia, if only foreign interference was not an issue. [8] Eventually, in the political tug-of-war, the constitutionalists period came to an abrupt end with the former absolute ruler reclaiming the throne. [9]
He married twice, first time with Perunika Žabarac and second wife Agnija nicknamed Nula, sister of a Greek revolutionary leader of the Greek War of Independence, Yiannis Pharmakis. [10] With his first wife he had four children, two daughters (Stanka and Anka) and two sons (Stevan and Ilija). [10] According to some sources, Vučić dug out his own eye with a fork during a lunch, because he had an eye pain. [11]
A street in Belgrade is named after him. [12]
