  • Paleochora: Wie Das Dorf Zu Seinem Namen Kam
    Paleochora: Wie das Dorf zu seinem Namen kam. Gute Quelle: Das Buch „Paleochora (Ein Rückblick in die Vergangenheit)“, von Nikolaos Pyrovolakis. Seit der venezianischen Epoche hieß das Gebiet des heutigen Paleochoras „Selino Kastelli“ – und zwar aufgrund des venezianischen Kastells, das sich oberhalb des heutigen Hafens befindet. Die Bezeichnung dieses Kastells gab dem ganzen Bezirk, der zuvor „Orima“ (= „in den Bergen liegend“) hieß, den Namen Selino. Ein schönes Buch. Gibt es nur im Buchladen von Paleochora. 1834 besichtigte der englische Reisende Robert Pashley* die venezianische Festung und berichtete, dass er um diese herum nur auf Ruinen gestoßen und der Ort vollkommen unbewohnt gewesen sei. Es gab nur ein Gebäude (Lager), in dem man Getreide aufbewahrte, das hauptsächlich aus Chania kam. Dieses Getreide diente der Versorgung der Bewohner von Selino und Sfakia. Während seines Besuches im heutigen Paleochora 1834 weist er auf die Überreste einer alten Stadt hin und wird wörtlich wie folgt zitiert: „Nachdem wir um Viertel nach Neun von Selino Kastelli weggegangen waren, überquerten wir den Fluss, der eine halbe Meile östlich liegt. Der Boden rundum ist von Tonscherben bedeckt. Das einzige Material, das auf die Existenz einer antiken Stadt hindeutet.“ Es gibt auch verschiedene Hinweise darauf, dass alte Bewohner Paleochoras an dieser Stelle beim Pflügen auf verschiedene Münzen gestoßen sind. Der Reisende Paul Faure* geht ganz klar davon aus, dass die Ortschaft wahrscheinlich auf den Trümmern der antiken Stadt „Kalamidi“ erbaut worden ist. Da also Paleochora in der Nähe einer antiken, zerfallenen Stadt wiedererbaut wurde, wurde ihm dieser Ortsname gegeben. Es stellt sich jetzt die Frage, welche von den 40 Städten, die Plinius niedergeschrieben hat, es ist.

  • Ferals, My Little «Ἀγρίμια Κι΄Ἀγριμάκια Μου ΄Λάφια Μου ΄Μερωμένα Πεστέ
    Greek Song No5 – Agrimia Ki Agrimakia Mou https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jiNrWFUKdho The music of Crete (Greek: Κρητική μουσική), also called kritika (Greek: κρητικά), refers to traditional forms of Greek folk music prevalent on the island of Crete in Greece. Cretan music is the eldest music in Greece and generally, in Europe. Since ancient times, music held a special place in Crete and this is proved by the archaeological excavations, the ancient texts and paintings that are preserved in the Archaeological Museum of Heraklion. Most paintings represent the lyre player playing in the middle and the dancers dancing around in circle. There are also images of flutes, conches, trumpets and the ancient lyre. Lyra is the basic instrument of Cretan music. It is in three types: “Lyraki” (small lyre), the common lyre and “Vrontolyra”. They have three metallic chords, which, in the past were made of intestine. They differ in size, the sound they produce and their use. Cretan traditional music includes instrumental music (generally also involving singing), a capella songs known as the rizitika, "Erotokritos," Cretan urban songs (tabachaniotika), as well as other miscellaneous songs and folk genres (lullabies, ritual laments, etc.). “Rizitika” is a category of Cretan songs, named from the Greek word “riza” which means “root”. Therefore these songs date back many centuries ago in Cretan music. Cretans don’t dance these particular songs. The singer usually sings them and the chorus repeats the lyrics. One of the most famous Rizitika song is “ Agrimia Ki Agrimakia Mou” (Ferals, my little ferals) and especially its version by the mst famous Cretan singers of all time Nikos Xyloyris.

Hagleitner, Modality and Diversity… Modality and Diversity in Cretan Music Michael Hagleitner Abstract: Cretan music is a vibrant and diverse living tradition, with identity-forming significance for the local population. It is a modal music whose modes, unlike in related modal traditions, cannot be described on the basis of characteristic phrases, as the same skopous (basic melodies) can be played in different modes. In this article, after a short introduction to the structure and certain peculiarities of Cretan music, four characteristic families of modes are described. The flexibility and permeability in the usage of modality are demonstrated using examples from the repertoire of kontylies. Such freedom is also found in the variation, embellishment and combination of melodies and the relationship between text and music. Such a high degree of flexibility is essential for Cretan music to fulfil its social function. It supports spontaneity, communication and expression in the context of participatory music- making in the parea (community) as well as the mutual interaction between musicians and dancers in Cretan dance music.

Abducting a General By Patrick Leigh Fermor ! The sierras of occupied Crete, familiar from nearly two years of clandestine sojourn and hundreds of exacting marches, looked quite different through the aperture in the converted bomber's floor and the gaps in the clouds below: a chaos of snow- covered, aloof and enormous spikes glittering as white as a flakier in the February moonlight. There, suddenly, on a tiny plateau among the peaks, were the three signal fires twinkling. A few moments later they began expanding fast: freed at last from the noise inside the Liberator the parachute sailed gently down towards the heart of the triangle. Small figures were running in the firelight and in another few moments, snow muffled the impact of landing. There was a scrum of whiskery embracing, a score of Cretan voices, one English one. A perfect landing! The Katharo1 plateau was too small for all four of the passengers to drop in a stick: each jump needed a fresh run-in. So, once safely down I was to signal the all clear with a torch. But the gap I had dripped through closed; our luck, for the moment, had run out. We took turns to signal towards the returning boom of the intermittently visible plane just the other side of the rushing clouds until the noise died away and we knew the plane had turned back to Brindisi.

  • A Placed Critical Inquiry Into Literary Culture in Modern Nations
    GUARDING THE WILD: A PLACED CRITICAL INQUIRY INTO LITERARY CULTURE IN MODERN NATIONS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Eric L. Ball, B.S., M.S., M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee Approved by Professor Gregory Jusdanis, Adviser Professor Patrick B. Mullen ____________________________ Adviser Professor H. Lewis Ulman Department of Greek and Latin Professor Georgios Anagnostu Copyright by Eric L. Ball 2003 ABSTRACT Scholars in humanistic disciplines have been focusing on “place” in response to issues like environmental degradation and globalization. Literary ecocritics have undertaken place-centered studies in order to address issues important to local communities and ecological sustainability. Such projects, however, have not considered important assumptions about place (and their consequences) inherent in the historically constituted category of “literature” itself. This dissertation addresses this issue by developing a historically grounded place-based theory of literary critical interpretation and by demonstrating its practice. I begin developing theory by drawing on humanistic geography for an adequate theory of place in social and ecological terms. I engage with literary and folkloric research demonstrating that modern literary categories, critical practices, and assumptions have their roots in, and continue to reflect the concerns of, projects dealing with national identity. My goal is to develop a perspective capable of analyzing simultaneously, and in relation to each other, canonical national literature and widely ignored local literatures hitherto categorized as “mere folklore.” In order to put theory into practice, and to continue developing and refining the theory, I then turn to critical interpretation of texts relevant to one particular place: Crete.

Several highly distinctive and confident patterns emerge. keywords: ethnomusicology, data mining, folk song analysis, pattern discovery, classifi- cation 1 Introduction In recent years there is a renewed interest in folk song analysis partly driven by increasing interests in cultural heritage, and also by advances in music informatics methods.

Music data mining methods play a key role in building predictive models for folk song classification. The folk music of Crete, like all traditional Greek music, can be divided primarily into dance and non-dance (which are further subdivided into \Tavla" or \songs of the table" and \road" songs).

  • Cultural Program 1
    Cultural Program Introduction As a part of the ongoing outreach and engagement initiatives of The Cretans’ Association of Hamilton “Arkadi”, the board of directors has discussed the development and institution of a Cultural program in keeping with the objectives and mandate of the Association, which is to foster the spread and celebration of Cretan heritage and cultural traditions. To this end, the board of directors will create a committee overseeing Cultural Issues and Events, which will consist of directors from the board and members of the association. Scope of Program Crete is located geographically at the crossroads of several cultures; there is a large and diverse artistic and literary component, as well as a socio-historical component with the many events that mark the Cretan legacy and experience, influencing arts and crafts as well as cuisene. Additionally, a large part of the Cretan cultural experience lies within the varied dances and musical traditions of the island, and so any program designed to immerse the membership and other stakeholders in the “Cretan Experience” must by necessity include these aspects. Given the above considerations, the board of directors of the Cretans’ Association of Hamilton “Arkadi” has decided to offer the following as an immersive and engaging Cultural Program for the membership and other stakeholders in the community to promote and sustain Cretan culture: Dance Workshops Designed and implemented by instructors from the community, the association will offer Cretan Dance workshops, which will be geared to both youth and adult learners, from beginners (no experience) to advanced experience levels. There will be 3 workshops, with target dates of individual events to be February 2017, March 2017, and April 2017.

I felt that the engineering language did not approach music in an appropriate way, and I hoped that by studying ethnomusicology, I would find some alternative ways to look at and to write about music. Crete has been the geographical centre of my life ever since 2003, when I first went there for a longer period. I lived in Crete for many years, and with living in Crete comes dancing, singing, and playing music.
