This paper explores the historical, social, and cultural circumstances in Perast during the early modern period, highlighting the town’s distinctive societal configuration and cultural milieu shaped by its strategic location. Notably, Perast experienced a period of prosperity during the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, which can be attributed to the maritime and trading privileges bestowed by the Republic of Venice in recognition of its war efforts against the Ottoman Empire. Yet, concomitant with the decline and ultimate demise of the Serenissima, Perast witnessed a commensurate wane in its renown and influence along the shores of the Adriatic. This paper delves into the historical, social, cultural, and literary landscape of Perast during the early modern period. Through an exploration of authored and oral literature, ecclesiastical performances, carnival traditions, and elements of traditional culture, it seeks to illuminate the multifaceted tapestry that shaped Perast’s identity during this epoch.
