Summary/Abstract: Based on the literature and archival materials of Dubrovnik, the author portrays the members of the Žaretić family, who came to Dubrovnik from Bar in the second decade of the 14th century. The author studies three generations of the Žaretić family in the time period of about a hundred years. Grube, the originator of the family, was a successful merchant and respected citizen, who very quickly became part of the business and social life of the town under Mt. Srđ. However, his descendants apparently did not follow in his footsteps. One of them, though, Father Andrija, carried on the family tradition and became a priest.
