Uglješa Mrnjavčević ((セルビア語:Угљеша Мрњавчевић); fl. 1346–1371), known as Jovan Uglješa (Јован Угљеша, (ブルガリア語:Иван/Йоан Углеша)) was a Serbian medieval nobleman of the Mrnjavčević family that served the Serbian Empire. He held the title of ''despot'' during the rule of Uroš V. His brother was magnate Vukašin Mrnjavčević. ==Life== Uglješa was the son of Mrnjava, a treasurer of Helen of Anjou, the queen consort of Stephen Uroš I of Serbia. He held Travunia in 1346, during the rule of Stephen Uroš IV Dušan of Serbia (1331–1355).〔''Književno delo monahinje Jefimije'', p. 1〕 Uglješa married Jelena (later nun Jefimija), daughter of Vojihna, the ''Caesar'' of Drama.〔Fajfric, p. 5〕 This boosted the power of Uglješa, who would later govern the region alongside his father-in-law.〔 Vojihna died in ca 1360, and his lands were inherited by Jovan Uglješa.〔''The Late Medieval Balkans'', p. 364〕 He was given the title of ''despotes'' by Empress Helena of Bulgaria in 1365. His province was situated along the lower course of the Struma with Serres as seat. And in order to be regarded as a proper Christian ruler, it was his duty to conform to the traditional practice of patronage. He made substantial donations to monasteries at Mount Athos, particularly Hilandar and repairing and refurbishing Simonopetra monastery in 1364. Like so many other Serbian rulers before and after him, one of the main purposes of his patronage and pilgrimage to the Holy Mountain was to ask the Athonites' blessing on his struggle against the Turks. His realm was under the religious jurisdiction of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople since 1368. The Patriarch mentioned the master of Raška (another name for Serbia), Jovan Uglješa, in a letter from 1371. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Uglješa Mrnjavčević」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
