Description
Summary:Od konca XIV. do sredine XV. stoljeća utemeljena su na području zadarskih otoka četiri franjevačka samostana. Samostan sv. Duje u Kraju na Pašmanu formiran je na posjedu zadarske plemićke obitelji Grisogono koncem XIV. stoljeća. Imućna udovica Pelegrina Grisogono najprije je fratrima prognanim iz Bosne pružila utočište kod svoje crkve, a zatim osigurala i sredstva za izgradnju samostana. Samostan sv. Pavla na otočiću Galevcu kod Preka na Ugljanu izgrađen je tijekom prve polovine XV. stoljeća sredstvima koja je oporučno u tu svrhu ostavio zadarski plemić Bartul iz Milana. Samostan sv. Jerolima u Ugljanu podignut je tijekom druge četvrtine XV. stoljeća sredstvima zadarskog plemića Šimuna Begne. Samostan sv. Mihovila u Zaglavu nastao je slično kao i onaj u Kraju. Najprije je sagrađena crkva, kao jednostavna zadužbina zadarskog građanina Grgura Mrganića, a zatim je vlasnik uz nju smjestio franjevce trećoredce, te im na koncu oporukom ostavio čitav posjed. No osim samih utemeljitelja, i mnogi drugi zadarski građani osiguravali su sredstva za njihovo daljnje funkcioniranje i prosperitet. Tako su tijekom prvog stoljeća svoga postojanja otočki samostani znatno napredovali, te postali, u okvirima skromnih otočkih sredina, istaknuti vjerski centri, ali i mjesta naglašene umjetničke djelatnosti. Four Franciscan monasteries were founded on the Zadar islands from the end of the 14th to the middle of the 15th century. The monastery of St Duje in Kraj on the island of Pašman was formed on the landholdings of the Zadar noble family Grisogono at the end of the 14th century. The wealthy widow Pelegrina Grisogono initially gave sanctuary to the monks who had been driven from Bosnia nearby her church and afterwards ensured the financial means for building a monastery. The monastery of St Paul on the islet Galevac near Preko on the island of Ugljan was built during the first part of the 15th century with the resources which were assigned for this purpose in the will left by the Zadar nobleman Bartul from Milano. The monastery of St Jerolim in Ugljan was erected during the third quarter of the 15th century with the resources of the Zadar nobleman Šimun Begna. The monastery St Mihovil in Zaglav was built in a manner similar to the one in Kraj. Initially a church was built as a simple pious endowment by the citizen of Zadar Grgur Mrganić and afterwards its owner settled Franciscan Tertiaries next to it. Eventually he left the whole property to them in his will. However, in addition to the founders themselves, many Zadar citizens ensured means for their further functioning and prosperity. In such a manner during the first century of their existence the island monasteries experienced a great deal of development and became, within the framework of humble island circumstances, prominent church centers but also places of thriving artistic activity.
