Abstract: Drawing on archival materials from the Vatican and Belgrade, this paper explores the unsuccessful attempt to appoint Jovan Dučić as Minister Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes/Yugoslavia to the Holy See in 1929. The proposal, initiated by Minister Kosta Kumanudi, acting as Foreign Minister in the absence of Vojislav Marinković, was met with resistance from the Vatican. Based on reports from Nuncio Pellegrinetti who cited Dučić's bad reputation following several scandals, the Holy See rejected his appointment. Following this setback, Dučić resumed diplomatic service in Egypt. He later went to Rome in 1933 as a diplomat, not the Holy See but to the Quirinal.
