Sažetak
The founding of a Franciscan Monastery of St. Dujam (Domnio) at Kraj on the Island of Pašman is connected with the last will of Pelegrina Saladin, from Zadar, the widow of Franjo Grisogono, Bartul's son. A copy of this document is kept in the Benedictine Nunnery in Zadar. The precise date was until recently uncertain because the year on the copy, 1390, clashes with indication XV, that is, 1392. Pelegrina Saladin was a daughter of the wealthiest man in the 14th century Zadar, Kozo Saladin, Bartul's son. His ancestor of the same name was in the 13th century, prosperous merchant and the richest man in Zadar with numerous estates in the Zadar hinterland. Pelegrina's grandfather, Bartul, inherited him. Being her father's favourite, Pelegrina got the richest dowry. Her sisters and nieces were married to members of the most outstanding Zadar families in the 14th century, Martinusić, Matafar, Raduč and Soppe. The Grisogono family from which Pelegrina's husband, Franjo, carne was among the most respected in Mediaeval Zadar and was mentioned in the late 13th century. Leading noblemen from Zadar adhered to the policy of the Hungaro-Croatian King Lodovicus I Angevin, and in 1345 they started an uprising against Venetian government. In this unsuccessful uprising Franjo Grisogono must have lost his life together with other noblemen since already in 1347 Pelegrina was referred to as a widow. With the Zadar peace treaty in 1358 and Lodovicus ' victory over Venice politica! situation improved and Zadar noblemen performed high functions in Dalmatia and at the Court. Thus Peter's son, Ivan Grisogono, was appointed Prince in Split and in this new environment his son was named Dujam after the Saint protector. After this, Dujam became a frequent name in this family. In his last will, from Aprii 8th, 1370, Pelegrina's and Franjo's son, Maur Grisogono, decreed that a church in honour of St. Dujam should be built in the viciriity of his salt-works on the Island of Pašman. In 1384, following her son's wish, Pelegrina Saladin had the church built on the property of the Grisogono family. She offered it by a vow to the Franciscans who after being expelled from Bosnia settled in Zadar in 1380. In the following decades rich representatives of the Zadar nobility offered gifts to the Franciscan community on Pašman, especially Dujam, the son of Prince Ivan ,Grisogono. The Pašman monastery with the Split saint protector (St. Dujam), with the • founder from Zadar (Grisogono-Saladin) and with inheritors from Bosnia (displaced Franciscans) is an expression of political integrity of Dalmatia, Croatia and Bosnia in the second half of the 14th century.
