Dragoslav ( Serbian Cyrillic: Драгослав) or Jovan Dragoslav (Јован Драгослав; fl. 1290–1315) was a Serbian nobleman with the titles of kaznac, and then veliki kaznac, serving King Stefan Milutin (r. 1282–1321). The kaznac was a financial-taxation office, translated into Latin camerarius ( chamberlain). [2] In the hierarchy of the Serbian court, kaznac ranked higher than stavilac and čelnik, and lower than tepčija and vojvoda, the supreme title. [3] He was part of the generation of Serbian nobility that were empowered in the early 14th century. [4]
Dragoslav served as kaznac in the area of Skopje, mentioned in ca. 1300, then was elevated to veliki kaznac some time prior to 1315. [5] According to P. Grujić, he first served Milutin in ca. 1290 as sluga, became kaznac in ca. 1300, then veliki kaznac in ca. 1315. [6] P. Grujić stressed that his career started as sluga (a special court office, similar to stavilac [7]), mentioned in a confirmation of Ragusan privileges. [8] Ferjančić was unsure of this, [8] while the Serbian Institute of Byzantinology now agrees that Dragoslav began his rise on Milutin's court as sluga. [9] In 1300, he was mentioned along his wife kyra Jelena, and at that time held the region of Sušica which was around Žegligovo. [10] He donated a vineyard, called Mavrovo, to the Monastery of St. George near Skopje, [8] as part of Milutin's endowments. [11] He founded the Church of the Virgin Hodegetria in the village of Mušutište, near Prizren, together with his wife, son and daughter in 1315. [1] Dragoslav had acquired good master artists for his church. [12] In an inscription in the church, his elevated title of veliki kaznac is mentioned — this meant that he was the supreme court administrator of state assets. [13] According to Svetislav Mandić, he later had the title of despot. [14] It was possibly given to him by Byzantine Emperor Andronikos II Palaiologos (r. 1272–1328). [15] Mandić also believes that he received the name Jovan from the church (as did Jovan Oliver), [16] of a special honorable character, and was not born with it. [6] According to some, Dragoslav married Teodora, the mother of Stefan Dušan and former Queen consort, sometime between 1322 and 1326, and thence received the title of despot. [17]
His church was destroyed with explosives in 1999 by ethnic Albanians. [18]
