Carmen seu historia Carolo II cognomento Parvo Rege Hungariae is a medieval account on the political troubles under the reign of Queen Mary (13821395), the only queen who ever ruled Hungary in the Middle Ages. It is a 560line Latin hexametric epic, written in 1388 by the Venetian poet, notary and chronicler, Lorenzo Monaci, who fulfilled diplomatic missions in Hungary on multiple occasions. Both the poem and the dedicatory letter prefacing it have been extensively used by scholars as historical sources; no one, however, has ever analyzed it as a literary product. This thesis deals with Monaci? Carmen as a literary construct. As such, the image it conveys about Queen Mary, as well as about late fourteenthcentury Hungarian events, have been contextualized and carefully deconstructed. The book explores three different contexts: Monaci?s Venetian bias; HungarianVenetian diplomatic and political relations; and the problems of female rule in Angevin Hungary. The analysis deconstructs the contrastive images of Queen Mary and her rival, Charles of Durazzo in the Carmen, an outstanding Gesamtkunstwerk of medieval historical literature.
