Life
He belonged to a small circle of associates of Stefan Dušan, who after the death of Danilo II, Serbian Archbishop in 1337, the logothete (chancellor) was appointed as archbishop and thus tried to put the Serbian church under his stronger influence.[1]
Professing anonymity was not uncommon for monks in medieval Serbia.[2] Names of some monk scribes are difficult to come by because of their dedication to their craft of writing and because their spirituality did not permit them to disclose their name or take any credit for their work. Some would only give their first name, and occasionally some, like those from the Rača monastery, used the name of their monastery as a surname.
Literary work
Danilo's student wrote three biographies: his mentor "Danilo," "The Life of the King Stefan Dečanski and "The Life of King Dušan the Mighty"[3] only until the time of the collection "Lives of Kings and Archbishops" (1337—1340) and Žitije archiepiscopal Danilo II, Serbian Archbishop.[4]
He wrote along the same lines as Danilo II, describing the life of his teacher after 1337, and presenting only the spiritual life and ecclesiastical calling of his master.[5]
His works excel for their artistic and stylistic qualities. He had a keen sense of the dramatic and his narration is vivid and exciting. He was unable to completely avoid the stock phrases and epithets common in hagiographic literature of the time, however, the realistic detail in his works is unusually abundant for the period. In addition, "The Lives of Serbian Kings and Archbishops" (Животи краљева и архиепископа српских) [6] constitutes a valuable source for political and religious life in Serbia during the Nemanjić ascendency.[7]
His depiction of the attack of the Catalans on Mount Athos monasteries is also a unique descriptive record of timely history.[8]
It is assumed that from the biographies compiled by Archbishop Danilo and from his own, which he wrote according to the same pattern between 1337 and 1340, he made a whole, the collection "Lives of Serbian Kings and Archbishops" (the so-called "Danilo's Collection"). ). His narration is chronic, focused on external events (eg the description of the defence of Hilandar; the description of the battle of Velbužde), which goes beyond the old poetics of presenting internal spiritual values and linguistic and stylistic ups and downs.
He is credited with compiling the biographies written by Danilo II in a collection, and he added his biography of Stefan Uroš III and the "Life of Archbishop Joanikije I," written by a monk from the Monastery of Sopoćani.
