Overview

This monody, attributed to John Argyrpoulos, mourns the death of Emperor John VIII Palaiologos and the subsequent despair of the Greek people. It expresses a deep sense of loss and helplessness in the face of overwhelming misfortunes, emphasizing the Emperor's noble qualities and leadership. The text laments the decline of Greek civilization and the rise of barbarism, contrasting the past glory under the Emperor with the current state of despair. It highlights the necessity of philosophy in kingship and the ideal of a ruler who embodies both wisdom and virtue, serving the common good rather than personal ambition.
