Florian Biesik (b. 1849; d. between 1924 and 1931) created a literary standard for Vilamovian, trying to prove it did not derive from German origin, but possibly Dutch, Frisian, or Anglo-Saxon.
An Austro-Hungarian civil servant, he was sent to the Adriatic port of Trieste, where he spent most of his professional life as the director of the local post office. After retiring, he moved to the village of Nabrežina near the coastal resort of Duino, where he frequented the cultural circles of the local Slovene community.[1]
