Ludovik Crijević Tuberon

(Dubrovnik, 17 October 1458 – Dubrovnik, June 1527) The renewal of the classical idea of education through the study of humanities rests on the assumption that with correct upbringing and education man can be perfected in those things that are specific to human beings.

Marija Giorgi Bona

(Dubrovnik, 18 May 1754 – Dubrovnik, 7 April 1839) The social status and rights and obligations of women and man throughout history, were determined, to a great extent, by the distinction between the private and public sphere of life.
