Riepilogo: | Stephan II writes the Hagiography of Saint Symeon five years after the death of Alexius III. In the legal and political vacuum of the Byzantine imperial legitimacy, Stephan II exploits the reception of Apoc 21:2, 10 by describing the erection of the monastery of Studenica in order to present his father, as well as himself, as Christian rulers that experienced the apocalyptic vision of the New Jerusalem following the prototype of Constantine the Great. This inventive theological and political construct of Stephan II implies the perception of the Serbian medieval state in the light of translatio imperii. After the fall of Constantinople the Constantine-like Serbian rulers and seers, Stephan Nemanja and his son, Stephan II are now the bearers of the Constantinian ruling theology. |
