Italian original Cite

AQUILINI, IGNAZIO. - Dominican from Amata, born in Ragusa in 1632, died there in the convent of Val di Noce on 7 April 1715. His studies, undertaken in Bologna, prepared him for the activity of lecturer in Sacred Scripture, preacher and ascetical writer. He was prior in Bologna and in 1690 vicar general of the Ragusan congregation.

From his youth tried by most painful physical ailments, he gave an example of rare patience and of zeal for souls. He left (unpublished) works in Latin and Croatian on ascetical themes (Locutio sinceri cum Deo cordis, Bona mors, Tragoediae humanae citae), literary and medical ones. He published in Ancona (1688) the office of St. Dominic and in Venice (1689) that of the Madonna, both in Croatian.
