Un umanista italiano a Bisanzio : Francesco Filelfo al servizio di Giovanni VIII Paleologo
P. 117-132
- Francesco Filelfo (1398-1481) was one of the Italian humanists to gain a thorough knowledge of Greek in Constantinople, where he lived in the 1420s. He became a pupil of the Byzantine scholar John Chrysoloras, whose daughter Theodora Chrysolorina was his first wife. The young learned man was there integrated into Byzantine establishment. In particular, the heir and joint emperor John VIII Palaiologos appointed him as his personal secretary, advisor. On behalf of John, Filelfo attended the international congress in Buda in 1423; he met personally with the Holy Roman Emperor Sigismund, the King of Poland Władysław II Jagiełło, and other European leaders. Finally, he came back with John Palaiologos from Asprokastron (Bilhorod-Dnijstrovs'kij) to Constantinople (24.11.1424). Filelfo's Letters represent an extraordinary historical testimony with respect to his stay in Constantinople at the service of John Palaiologos. [Publisher's text]
