Roberto Ghiglianovich (17 July 1863 – 2 September 1930) was a Dalmatian Italian politician.[1][2]

Biography

He was grown up in a liberal family in Zara, Austria-Hungary (today Zadar, Croatia). As a child, two of his greatest friends were the Croat Petar Klaić and the Serb Dušan Baljak.[1] Their friendship was so strong that it made him want to learn the Serbo-Croatian language.[1]

He studied law in Graz and Vienna. During his time in Austria, and with the influence of other Dalmatian Italians from the province irredente, he started to develop nationalistic feelings. Upon his return to Zadar, as a lawyer, he began to endeavor in politics ever more.[1][3]

Although he was open to make some concessions to the Slavs, Ghiglianovich endeavored to get at least Zara annexed to Italy.[1] He endeavored against the "process of discrimination actuated by the municipalities in Croatian hands,"[1] thus attempting to preserve the Italian language in schools and in the public administration.[1]

Upon Italy's entry in World War I, he escaped from Austria to Rome, where he was chosen, at the end of the war, member of the Italian delegation to the Paris Peace Conference (1919–1920), as an aggregate in the marine section, as a legal expert for Dalmatia.

Ghiglianovich, who became judge at the Supreme Court of Cassation, was then nominated Senator of the Kingdom of Italy on November 15, 1920.[1][2]

In the 1920s, he got sick and retired in his hometown Zara (present-day Zadar). He died in Gorizia on September 2, 1930.[1]
