Coat of arms of the Basiljević noble 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]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
