Summary/Abstract: Nobleman Paladin Gundulić from Dubrovnik was captured on his way from Zvornik to Dubrovnik in June 1423 by the Bosnian duke Radoslav Pavlović and imprisoned in the latter’s residence at Borač. The reason was the debt of the nobleman’s brother, Ivan Gundulić. This paper contextualizes the heirs of Jakov Gundulić, his sons Marin, Ivan, and Paladin, in order to clarify their position and involvement in the events of 1423/24. The extensive efforts of the family and the Dubrovnik government to achieve Paladin’s release are now better known and will be easier to contextualize in future research. The author also discusses the basis of movement and continuous presence of Ragusans in Bosnian colonies.
