Summarize this article for a 10 year old
Pavle Julinac (1730–1785) was a Serbian writer, philosopher, historian, traveler, soldier, and diplomat in the Imperial Russian service. As a historiographer, Julinac's "A Short Introduction to the History of the Slavo-Serbian People" published in Venice in 1765 was the most significant historical oeuvre of the period. Ten years later, Julinac's translation of Marmontel's "Bélisaire" became one of the most prominent works of the Enlightenment in Serbian literature, thanks to dramatists Marko Jelisejić (1760-1833), Joakim Vujić and others. The work of Marmontel soon popularized the philosophical ideas of the Enlightenment in Austria among the large Slavo-Serbian population there and in Russia.[1]
