Dominik Andrijašević

Dominik Andrijašević (Italian: Domenico Andreassi, Latin: Dominicus Andriasius/Dominicus Andreassius; 1572–1639), was a Ragusan Francisan friar who served as the Catholic Bishop of Scutari (1622–24) and later Mostar (1637).

Life

Born in 1572 in Orahov Do[1] in Herzegovina, Andrijašević was a resident in Ragusa (Dubrovnik).[2]

Andrijašević was sent with Damjan Ljubibratić several times to the Popes with petitions of aid in Balkan uprisings.

In 1608, Andrijašević arrived in Ragusa (Dubrovnik) from Spain with letters for Grdan.[3]

In 1624, the Ottomans expelled Andrijašević from Scutari.[4]
