Zamanja (Džamanjić), Bernard (Bernardus Zamagna), Croatian poet and translator (Dubrovnik, 9. XI. 1735 – Dubrovnik, 20. IV. 1820). Attended the Jesuit Collegium Ragusinum; In 1753 he entered the Roman novitiate of the Society of Jesus. Studied rhetoric for two years (1755–57), studied philosophy (1757–60) and theology (1766–70). He was a student of R. Kunić and R. Bošković and a member of the Roman Accademia degli Arcadi (pastoral name Triphylus Caphissides). He was ordained a priest in 1769. He taught rhetoric at the Jesuit college Collegium Ptolemaeum in Siena, and after the dissolution of the Jesuit order, he continued to teach at the same institute under the Piarist administration. He taught rhetoric and the Greek language in Milan, where he served as a diplomat for the Republic of Dubrovnik. He was vicar general of the Dubrovnik archdiocese (1783); inspector of the Dubrovnik lyceum (1808).

In the epic Echo (Echo, 1764), composed of 1361 hexameters in two books, he dealt with acoustic, meteorological and astronomical phenomena. He attached an elegy to the work Rajmund Kunić, his former teacher (Ad Raymundum Cunichium suum olim Magistrum), in which he wrote about the didactic orientation of the then Jesuit poetry workshop
