MOROSINI

This article appears in Volume V18, Page 861 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MOL-MOS
MOROSINI , a
noble
  Venetian family, probably of Hungarian extraction, which gave many doges, statesmen, generals and admirals to the Venetian Republic, and cardinals to the
Church
 . It first became prominent at the time of the emperor
Otho
  II. owing to its rivalry with the Caloprini family, whom it succeeded in subjugating by the end of the 10th
century
 . Domenico Morosini (d. 1156), elected doge in 1148, waged war with success against the Dalmatian corsairs, recapturing
Pola
  and other Istrian towns from them. Marino Morosini (d. 1252) was elected doge in 1249; Michele was doge from June 1382, until his death in October of the same year.
