Hieromonk Mardarije

Hieromonk Mardarije (Serbian Cyrillic: Јеромонах Мардарије; fl.

1552–66) was a Serbian Orthodox hieromonk and one of the most important early Serb printers.

Mardarije worked as an editor and printer at the Belgrade printing house owned first by Count Radiša Dmitrović and later by Trojan Gundulić.

[5] Mardarije is the author of the afterword published at the end of the Gospel Book in which he succinctly described how the book came into being, the establishment of the Belgrade printing house and its key people.

[10] The Flowery Triodon is recognizable because in this book Mardarije preferred to use figural motives instead of the ornaments.
