Guglielmo da Varignana, also Gulielmus Varignana (1270-1339) was a professor of medicine and philosopher from Bologna. He was personal physician to Mladen II Šubić of Bribir between 1318 and 1322.
Biography
He was a son of Bartholomew da Varignana born in 1270. He was forced to flee his native Bologna as a Ghibelline in 1318, subsequently becoming a personal physician and advisor to Ban of Croatia Mladen II Šubić.[1] He wrote his first work Secreta sublimia ad varios curandos morbos in 1319, under the orders of Mladen.[1] In 1320, he is sent as a diplomat to Venice to negotiate terms regarding the city of Šibenik. After the fall of Mladen at 1322 Battle of Bliska, he offered his services to the Republic of Ragusa, signing a two year contract, which had proved fruitless. After his political opponents were defeated in Bologna, he withdraws there, remaining until his death in 1339.[1]
