Abstract

The work "Μανουήλ Β΄ ΠαλαιολÏŒγος: Αυτοκράτορας και συγγραφέας(1350-1425)" presents a synthesis, in the Greek language, of the work, both political and literary, of the antepenultimate Byzantine emperor. It focuses mainly on the "Mirror for princes" which was composed and dedicated to his son and heir to the throne, John VIII. The text keeps the original form in which it was presented at the International Meeting "Έλληνες λογοτέχνες απο την άλωση μέχρι σήμερα", organized by the Corporation Σωματείo ΔιεθνÏŽν Σχέσεων και ΠολιτιστικÏŽν ΑνταλλαγÏŽν Καλύμνου-Αθήνας (Athens, 2008).    

Keywords:
