  • Jovan Vladimir, in English texts often John Vladimir, (died May 22, 1016 in Prespa, today in the Republic of Macedonia) was the ruler of Duklja between the years ca. 990 and 1016, during the protracted war between Byzantium and the First Bulgarian Empire. He tried to protect Duklja from the expansionist Tsar Samuil of Bulgaria by an alliance with Byzantium; Samuil, however, conquered Duklja in 997 and took Jovan Vladimir prisoner. According to a 12th-century chronicle, Samuil’s daughter Theodora Kosara fell in love with the captive, and begged her father for Jovan Vladimir's hand. He obliged, returning Duklja to his new son-in-law and giving him the adjoining territory of Dyrrhachium to rule as his vassal. Vladimir was acknowledged as a godly, just, and compassionate ruler. He ruled in peace, evading involvement in the major conflict. The war culminated with Samuil’s defeat by the Byzantines in 1014, shortly after which the Tsar died. Jovan Vladimir fell victim in 1016 to a plot by Ivan Vladislav, the last ruler of the First Bulgarian empire. He was beheaded in front of a church in Prespa. Jovan Vladimir was buried in Prespa, and shortly after was recognized as a martyr and saint, his sainthood celebrated on May 22; Two or three years later he was reburied in Duklja, but in about 1215 his remains were transferred to Dyrrhachium, where they stayed until 1381, when they were moved to the Monastery of St. Jovan Vladimir near Elbasan. Since 1995 they have been kept in the Orthodox cathedral of Tirana. The saint's remains are a relic that attracts many believers, especially on his feast day (May 22 on the Julian and June 4 on the Gregorian calendar). Another relic connected with the saint is the cross he held when he was beheaded. For centuries, it has been under the care of the Andrović family from the village Velji Mikulići in southern Montenegro. It is shown to believers only once a year, on the Feast of Pentecost. Jovan Vladimir is regarded as the first Serbian saint and the patron saint of the town Bar, Montenegro. He is classically depicted on icons as a monarch wearing a crown and regal clothes, with a cross in his right hand and his own head in the left hand.
  • Jovan Vladimir,, était un souverain serbe de la Dioclée entre les années 990 et 1016, durant la guerre prolongée entre Byzance et le premier empire bulgare. Il tenta de protéger la Dioclée du tsar expansionniste Samuel de Bulgarie en faisant une alliance avec Byzance; Samuel a néanmoins conquis la Dioclée en 997 et a fait prisonnier Jovan Vladimir. La fille de Samuel, Théodora Kosara, tomba amoureuse du prisonnier, et supplia son père pour sa main. Il accepta, rendant la Dioclée à son nouveau beau-fils, et lui donnant en outre le territoire de Dyrrachium. Vladimir était connu comme un souverain pieux, juste et compatissant. Il régna en paix, évitant la participation au conflit majeur. La guerre culmina avec la défaite de Samuel par les Byzantins en 1014, peu après que le tsar est mort. Jovan Vladimir fut finalement victime d'un complot organisé par Ivan Vladislav, le dernier souverain du premier empire bulgare. Il fut décapité devant une église à Prespa.
  • Jovan Vladimir, var prins av Duklja mellom ca. 990 og sin død i februar 1016, under krigføringene mellom Bysants og Bulgaria. Han allierte seg her med Bysants, men ble tatt til fange av bulgarerne, men vendte tilbake og fikk kontroll over Dyrrhachium utover sitt «montenegrinske» rike. Vladimir var fetteren til den yngre Stefan I Vojislav, som gjenerobret Duklja fra bysantinerne og skapte en mektig fyrstestat i høymiddelalderen. Vladimir var anerkjent som en kristen og mild hersker, som unngikk krig. Vladimir ble etterhvert lurt i en felel av bulgarernes ledere, og ble henrettet ved halshogging i byen Prespa. Han ble ganske snart kanonisert og hans helgendag er 4. juni (22. mai). hans levninger, som etter mye flytting i middelalderen nå ligger i Tirana, tiltrekker seg pilegrimer.
