Teodoros Kolokotronis (1770–1843) je ena najvidnejših vojaških osebnosti iz časa grške revolucije (1821–1830). Rojen je bil v Meseniji na Peloponezu, živel pa je na Zakintosu, Peloponezu in v Atenah. Deloval je kot kleft in armatol in bil član Prijateljskega društva (Φιλική Εταιρεία), katerega cilj je bila organizacija in izvedba grške vstaje. Bil je eden izmed podpornikov vlade prvega grškega predsednika Joannisa Kapodistriasa, ki je vladal od leta 1828 pa do atentata leta 1831. Po prihodu bavarskega princa Otona I. v Grčijo (1833) je bil Kolokotronis leta 1834 obsojen na smrt, češ da je nasprotnik bavarskega dvora, a slednjič je bil pomiloščen. Kolokotronis je bil nepismen. Njegovo biografijo, Pripoved o dogajanju med grškim ljudstvom 1770–1836 (Διήγησις συμβάντων τῆς Ἑλληνικῆς φυλῆς ἀπὸ τὰ 1770 ἕως τὰ 1836), je zato po nareku napisal Georgios Tertsetis (1800–1874), eden izmed dveh sodnikov, ki sta v prepričanju, da je Kolokotronis nedolžen, zavrnila podpis pod prej omenjeno smrtno obsodbo. Delo je izšlo v Atenah leta 1846 in je napisano v prvi osebi, pripovedovalec je Kolokotronis. V besedilu se spominja dogodkov, ki jih je doživel v mladosti in med svojim udejstvovanjem v grški vstaji. V slovenskem prevodu je zbranih nekaj odlomkov, ki se osredotočajo na Kolokotronisovo pripoved o dogodkih pred nastopom prvega grškega predsednika, Joannisa Kapodistriasa, predsednikovo delovanje, njegovo smrt ter prihod bavarskega princa Otona I. v Grčijo.
