Biography

Jeronim Trogiranin OFM (Latin: Hieronymus de Tragurio) was a prelate of the Catholic Church who served as the bishop of Duvno from 1439 to his resignation in 1459.

Jeronim, a Franciscan, who was accoriding to Dominik Mandić born in Trogir, was appointed as the bishop of Duvno by Pope Eugene IV on 22 April 1439. The episcopal seat was vacant for 27 years, and the diocese was administered by its previous bishop George of Imotski, who was translated to Hvar until his death in 1428 and after by Petar Tilikonis, the bishop of Makarska. Jeronim was consecrated on 16 February 1440, and after twenty years in the episcopal chair, he resigned around 1459. Ante Škegro considers that some forty leaders and other members of the Bosnian Church who the Catholic Bosnian king has expelled Thomas in 1459, and who have found the protection and refuge in the domains of Stjepan Vukčić Kosača, who controlled the territory of the Diocese of Duvno, have expressed their animosity towards the Catholic Church. This, coupled with frequent Ottoman incursions in the territory, were, according to Škegro, possible reasons for Jeronim's resignation. The last document mentioning Jeronim was his will written in Omiš in 1465, in which he left all of his possessions to Juraj Cesarović, a parish priest from Nerežiće in the isle of Brač, under the condition that he takes care of him until his death and gives him a proper burial.
