520 8 $aPerceived as the founder of a Balkan identity, Stephen the Great maintained Moldavia's independence during periods of fierce Ottoman attack between 1457 and 1504. His Christian religious stance meant that, in the eyes of Europe, he had not only defeated a significant territorial threat but had elevated Christianity to a superior level as victors over their Muslim opponents. This book unveils the mechanisms behind this legacy, reviews the state formations that allowed this national hero to emerge, and explains the methods that preserve his memory in the region today.
