Nikola Vitov Gučetić

Nikola Vitov Gučetić[1] (Italian: Nicolò Vito di Gozzi,[2] Latin: Nicolai Viti Gozzii;[3] 1549–1610) was a Ragusan statesman, polymath,[4] philosopher, science writer and author of one of the first scientific dissertations regarding speleology.

Gučetić married Marija Gundulić-Gučetić, who was a philosopher too, and wrote La querelle des femmes u renesansnom Dubrovniku.

Ridotti in dialogo e divisi in quatro giornate under the title "Alla non men bella, che virtuosa e gentil donna Fiore Zuzori in Ragugia" Venetiis, 1582, is an extraordinary discourse in Ragusan heritage, given in the first place in the defence of the authors' friend Cvijeta Zuzorić ("Fiore Zuzori") but also the other women.

Marija's dedication has a theoretical value as well because it constitutes a part of a huge debate on the worth of women led in Europe from the 14th century on.

Being warm, dryer and denser, the evaporation medium is unable to penetrate the Earth through its surface, but only through the large openings and that is what produces wind.
