Foreign policy of king Theoderic the Great: Presentation of his power and marriage polic
 Mestek, Oto ; Drška, Václav (advisor) ; Picková, Dana (referee)
The Ostrogothic king Theodoric the Great, after years of struggle with other Gothic groups and Eastern Roman emperor Zeno in the Balkans, set out in 488 with his tribe to the west. There he defeated King Odoaecer and became ruler of Italy, where he founded the Ostrogothic kingdom and immediately became involved in the complicated relations between individual barbarian rulers of Western Europe. He had to clash with Vandals, Franks, Burgundians and Visigoths. Theodoric used his female relatives to make marriage alliances with neighboring kings to secure his position on the international scene. With the help of the "laws of the barbarians" and the official Ostrogothic correspondence written by Cassiodorus Senator we will focus on the various marriages organized by Theodoricc and how these marriages and other Theodoric's steps helped him to create his position among the other barbarian rulers.
