About the author

Epameinondas I. Stamatiades (1835–1901) is described in Greek reference sources as a journalist and scholar from Samos. Records for his books and authority entries confirm his dates and show that he published historical and biographical works in Greek.

Among the works linked to him today are History of the Capture of Byzantium by the Franks and Their Rule There and Biographies of the Great Greek Dragomans of the Ottoman State. Together, these titles suggest a writer especially interested in Byzantine history, the Ottoman world, and the political role of Greek intellectuals and officials.

Information about his personal life is limited in the sources I could confirm, but his bibliography places him among the learned Greek writers of the late 19th century whose work moved between journalism, history, and cultural memory.
