Summary

Antun Bašić: Notizie della vita e degli scritti di tre illustri Perastini

BAŠIĆ, Antun, poet and writer (Perast, 17. II 1793 — Perast, 20. IV 1873). He attended primary school in Perast, secondary school in Venice, studied philosophy and theology in Padua and Rome, where he received his doctorate. When he was ordained as a priest in 1823, he intended to go to China as a missionary, but by decree of Emperor Francis I, he became the director of the upper elementary school in Kotor and remained in that position for about forty years. Year In 1838, he was appointed bishop of Skadar, but he refused the appointment. He received various ecclesiastical honors (chamberlain and household prelate of the Holy See, apostolic prothonotary, honorary canon of the Dubrovnik Cathedral, etc.), and he was also awarded the Order of Knighthood of Francis Joseph I. — He wrote numerous brochures on various topics and commemorative poems, mainly in Italian, with some verses in Latin and Croatian. In theological and moralizing-religious writings, he discussed religion, mostly from a gnoseological-philosophical point of view. The treatise on astronomy Della vastità dell'universo (1825) is similar in character. He processed the biographies and works of prominent fellow residents Andrija and Vick Zmajević and Josip Marinović, which can still be used as reference literature today. He published several biographical and panegyric booklets with religious content (about St. Simon, Tripun and Aloysius Gonzaga). He also dealt with history and aesthetics, which was a rare phenomenon in southern Croatia at the time (Z. Posavac).
