Description

• Title:
  The Latin Empire in the eyes of Polish historians from John Dlugosz to Matthew Stryjkowski
• Creator:
  Pentek, Zdzisław
• Description:
  Until the times of Jan Długosz, Polish historians had not mentioned anything about the Latin Empire. It was Jan Długosz in his Chronicle who gave reliable and even extensive, though fragmentary, and slightly mixed information about it. He presented a summary of it and copied it with some chronological mistakes from Maciej of Miechów. In the second part of the 16th century, this information was repeated by Maciej Stryjkowski in his work: On the Beginnings. Stryjkowski enriched Długosz’s information with new one, coming from an unknown source. The information about the Latin Empire provided by the Polish chroniclers was fragmentary and distorted. The short-lived Latin Empire in the 15th and the 16th century did not deserve any special interest.
