  • The Athonites and Their Neighbours in Macedonia in the Tenth And
    Rosemary Morris The Athonitesand their neighbours in Macedonia in thetenth and eleventh centuries One of the most important principles in Byzantine monasticism was eremia (solitude) and the Holy Mountain of Athos in Macedonia was originally a place where ascetics could seek that solitude. By the end of the ninth century there were many monastic groups and solitaries on the mountain, and from this time date the earliest written records detailing their relations with each other and with their lay neigbours. These documents, the so-called archives of Mt. Athos, are slowly but surely being published, monastery by monastery, by French scholars and provide the major source for the history of the Athonite monasteries in the Byzantine period.' In the tenth century, with the foundation of the Great Lavra by St. Athanasios the Athonite, actively supported by the Emperor Nikephoros II Phocas, a new era dawned in the history of Athonite monasticism. Lavish amounts of imperial patronage in the form of annual donations of money (rogai) and grants of privileges were given, particularly to the Lavra and to the Monastery of Iveron.2 This house for Georgian monks was founded by the father and son Sts. John and Euthymios and was financed by imperial generosity and, it must be added, by the booty gained by the Georgian general John Tornik (later the monk John the Synkellos) when he emerged from Iveron to lead Georgian forces to the rescue of the young emperors, Basil II and Constantine VIII, from rebellions in Anatolia in 978-9. 3 It was this influx of wealth and the growth of imperial approval which allowed the Athonites in general (and these two houses in particular) both to improve their own buildings I.

It sheds light on several decades of dilemmas about his Herzegovinian bishopric seat. Furthermore, it defines the time and circumstances of his moving to Boka Kotorska more precisely and more comprehensively, as well as his activities under the auspices of the Republic of Venice. Keywords: Bishop Savatije Ljubibratić, Piva, Venetian rule, Orthodox Christian identity, Boka Kotorska, 17th and 18th century. 1. Trebinje or Piva he northwestern part of Boka (Risan, Herceg-Novi) was historically and geographically connected with Herzegovina. Since Herceg-Novi remained the last T Turkish stronghold in Boka, its conquering was of primary strategic and political importance for the Venetians. With its conquest, the Venetians would have power over the entire Boka,1 opening their way to penetrating Herzegovina as well.2 For realizing their plans, they used Serbian clans in Herzegovina, raising their hopes that they would thus be 3 liberated from Turkish oppression and be under a kind of Christian dominion. The * This text is an original scientific paper and result of several years of investigation (field and archive) in the area of Boka Kotorska (Herceg-Novi) for the preparation of a doctoral dissertation defended in 2015. 1 Ever since the 15th century Boka Kotorska was divided into the southeastern (Venetian) and northwestern (Turkish) part.
