Basiljević family
The House of Basiljević[1] (Basilio[a], Bassegli, Baseljić) was a noble family from the city of Dubrovnik, the Republic of Ragusa (modern-day Croatia).
History[edit]
It originated from Kotor (ital. Cattaro), and seems to have been related to the Drago family, as the founder of all members of the family was Basilius Dragonis (fl. 1266–70).[2] The Ragusan branch of the family was founded by Basilius de Basilio who was mentioned in a document dated 1314.[3] The family was also involved in sea trade.[2] Tomo Basiljević[4] (1756–1806), the Englightener,[5] envisaged a South Slavic country.[6] After 1808, with the French occupation and division of the Ragusan nobility into two groups, the family joined the Salamancanists, along with the Benessa, Bonda, Buća, Giorgi-Bona, Gradić, Ragnina, Restić and Tudisi, while Gundulić, Palmotić, Proculo were Sorbonnists; the rest of Ragusan nobility had branches, more or less, in both groups.[7]
