Sažetak
The text refers to members of several generations of the Serbian Plavšić family from Croatia, whose life paths and activities are followed from the first half of the 19th century to the beginning of the 21st century. They were the initiators of many important activities throughout
Croatia and the former Yugoslavia, first in Slavonia, especially in Osijek, and then in Zagreb, Novi Sad, Sarajevo, Belgrade, Opatija, and even in Sicily. With their civic criteria, high qualifications, personal efforts, ambitions, abilities and knowledge, certain prominent figures from this family, such as Nikola Atanasijev, Nikola Mihačinović, Dušan (the Elder), Dr. Čedomil and Maja Plavšić, Silvana and Josip Seissel, contributed to essential changes and improvements of certain institutions and professional organizations, scientific disciplines and cultural activities, from such diverse fields as economy, finance, banking, tourism, publishing, museology, medicine, architecture, urbanism, fine arts, and in one generation even the avant-garde phenomena of the 1920s. In addition to superior expertise in their various fields, they were all dedicated to culture and cultural heritage, deeply believing in their missionary role and patronage, as a pledge for the improvement of society and general well-being. They were
both family and friendly connected with numerous intellectuals and top creators throughout the former Yugoslavia, among whom many were Freemasons. Their individual destinies are a reflection of turbulent times in which certain visions of the unity of the people were transformed into reality, bringing great ups and downs, but also disappointments and life crashes. On the female line, they come from the old nobility of Ljudmila Ilić, so it is not unexpected that mothers, wives, sisters and daughters had their not only respected, but also prominent places in the family and in society. Although the surname Plavšić is disappearing with the new generations, the legacy that its numerous famous members left over the past time is great – deeply woven into the fabric of modern Croatian and former Yugoslav prosperity. And the fact that the young generations of this family carefully preserve the documentation of their ancestors and respect their heritage inspires faith that the memory of the luminaries of Plavšić will not fade.
