Двор епирских деспота у XIV и XV веку
The Court of the Despots of Epirus in the 14th and 15th Centuries

Summary/Abstract: Study examines the political development and court life of the Despotate of Epirus during the 14th and 15th centuries, focusing on the transition from Byzantine rule to foreign dynasties and regional rulers. It highlights political instability, dynastic rivalries, conflicts with local aristocrats and the Church, and the changing relationships between Epirus, Byzantium, Serbia, Albania, and Italian powers. The study demonstrates how the weakening of traditional Byzantine institutions and the growing influence of foreign rulers transformed the political structure, ruling court, and cultural identity of Epirus.
