Thanks to the invaluable assistance of JJ109 and Greyfox, I'm seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Just a final clarification for these two, please!

ACROSS:
13 Captivated European by force almost (5) : EPRI? ( EPRIS )?
( Trying to see how this fits in the preamble...)
26 I’d back player of old instrument? I’m weakening (7): DI?U?ER ( DILUTER ) ?

Epris - yes
Epris (captivated) = E(uropean) + Pris(e)
almost "prise" (force)
Diluter (yes) = I'd reversed + luter (a player of a lute / old instrument).
If you dilute something you weaken it
ID reversed+ luter, player of a lute, to dilute means to weaken the strength of something
