However, I am happy that the majority of common people and col- leagues are next to us.” Regarding the criticism received for leaks to the press Peristeri stressed that it is important to keep the media constantly updated on the progress of the excavation. Thodoros Mavrogiannis, professor of History and Ar- chaeology at the University of Cyprus, speaking at the same show, reiterated his belief that the close friend of Alexander the Great, Hephaestion, is buried in Kasta tomb.

    Greek Ethical Identities in Continuity and Change: A Social Networks Approach of Applied Philotimo in Economo-scape of Local Communities; the Case of Cooperative Banking Theodoros A. Katerinakis, MSc, PhD Candidate Tel: +215 895 6143, e-mail: [email protected] Department of Culture & Communication, Drexel University, 3141 Chestnut St., Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA Μail Address: 106A North 21st St., Philadelphia, PA 19103, USA Abstract: The core value of Greek philotimo derives from the root concept of kalokagathia and is manifested in the institutional and transactional ethos of Cooperative Banks in Greece. A major case study of Cooperative Bank of Chania (CBC) is presented to introducing the analytical approach of social network analysis, via UCINET, to represent membership ties and managerial ties in the second largest Greek cooperative bank. The concept of ethics in doing business is extended in a deliberate tendency to build transactional networks that enforce pre-existing social networks and stay tuned with sustainable local economies, a notion consistent with locality in multicultural Europe. Cooperative banking operates in intersection of emotional capitalism and social enterprise, as a cultural process through which new interactional- emotional scripts of economic relationships are illustrated by the cultural frames of cooperation or team work. The case of CBC of Chania shows how non-commercial ties of buyers- sellers matter in “major purchases” and insulate from crisis. Most such transactions take place among kin, friends, or acquaintances that substitute impersonal markets, especially when decisions involve high uncertainty; so common values like philotimo promote connectedness and builds trust that prevails in dealing with risk in order to make financial decisions, sustain and support them.

  • Philotimo": Semantics, Tradition, and Globalization of the Term for Greek Identity in an Era of Crisis
    ΕΛΕΤΟ – 10ο Συνέδριο «Ελληνική Γλώσσα και Ορολογία» Αθήνα, 12-14 Νοεμβρίου 2015 14 The concept of "philotimo": Semantics, tradition, and globalization of the term for greek identity in an era of crisis Theodoros Katerinakis ABSTRACT Since 2009 a turbulent era in the Mediterranean, Greece1 topped in the news rhetoric in diaspora for 1,000 times/day, with the use of acronyms like PIIGGS, BRICS etc. which build over stereotypes that transcend communication and redefine terminology on nation branding and identity. The current paper reviews the roots and tradition of "philotimo", its metaphors and extensions, and focuses on the use the term in connection with what is identified as "Greek" in international media coverage. This paper argues that the era of economic crisis has affected language use at an international level in media rhetoric and international relations. The terminology used towards "philotimo" covers a broad spectrum of topical terminological categories from ethics theory and culture to anthropological identities and nation branding. Its association with the enculturation in their peer-group called parea and the social networking construction of Homo dictyous. Every culture and nation possesses and reflects a core value that is at the center of their collective self and shared mindset. E.g. USA devotes itself to “freedom”, whereas in Canada the concept of “social justice” prevails. In Greek culture this central value is expressed with the term “philotimo”, a non-translatable conscious “arete” (of logos) of honor and pride, as expressed through acts of generosity and sacrifice (building pathos). Philotimo matches with credibility, with the tendency to cooperate and the ritual of keeping your word (face and commitments) without reserving it in a contract (the catalytic appeal of ethos).

Educational philosophy and content are seen as pawns in the social and political struggles of those years. Detailed coverage of the historical events describes the structure of education as it has evAved and the battles that brought about a popular, practical aspect to curricula. In this struggle the use of demotic or popular Greek is a real aswell as symbolic issue. The slow progress of modernization, impeded most recently by the 1967 military takeover is described as the result of Greek pride in a cultural heritage embodied in traditional, classical education. Reforms achieved in 1964 are seen as indications of what may come with time. Greek terms are used throughout the history and are defined in a glossary at the end. (JH) TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER I.

Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Jessica Wolfe Reid Barbour Mary Floyd-Wilson Darryl Gless Ritchie Kendall © 2009 William McCullough Russell ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT WILLIAM McCULLOUGH RUSSELL: The Invention of the Critic in England, 1570-1640 (Under the direction of Jessica Wolfe) This dissertation examines the social and intellectual forces that shaped the idea of the literary critic in early modern England. Histories of criticism too often neglect critical identity, fastidiously tracing the development of such concepts as imitation yet taking for granted the idea of the critic as stable and transparent. This study complicates that idea by historicizing it in the very period when the word critic first began to signify an expert in literary judgment. Revising reductive assessments of this era of criticism as the sum of its classical parts, I argue that the idea of the critic in early modern England was negotiated in a discourse equally responsive to classical precedent and to the economic, political, and religious circumstances of a rapidly changing national landscape. Such pivotal moments as the erection of public theaters in London, the Marprelate controversy, the tide of anti-intellectualism rising from what Gabriel Harvey called “the world of business,” and the English chapter of the scientific revolution forced English critics from Sidney to Jonson to reevaluate the basis and scope of critical authority.

  • Max Van Der Stoel — a Tireless Defender of Greek Democracy
    Max van der Stoel — a tireless defender of Greek democracy Peter Leuprecht 1 Many have paid tribute to Max van der Stoel’s personality, life and achievements, and rightly so. One facet was not, or not sufficiently, referred to in the numerous obituaries: his leading role in Europe’s fight against the military dictatorship in Greece. It is in this context that I had the privilege of getting to know him and working with him. Back in the 1960s, Max van der Stoel was a member of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe. He was appointed Rapporteur for what was to become the ‘Greek case’ of which I was in charge in the Secretariat of the Assembly. When a military junta overthrew the democratic regime in Greece in April 1967, Europe was shocked and stunned. For the first time since the foundation of the Council of Europe in 1949, the solidity of the ‘collective guarantee’ of pluralistic democracy, the rule of law and human rights for which it had been set up was to be put to the test. Max van der Stoel was fully aware of the profound significance of the ‘Greek case’ for Europe and the Council of Europe, often referred to as its ‘democratic conscience’. He took his task of Rapporteur very seriously. We worked closely together and I accompanied him on all his missions, mostly to Greece until the regime declared both of us persona non grata. The new military rulers of Greece claimed that they had seized power to prevent a communist takeover, an assertion that was never supported by evidence.

When they open, Cicero was enjoying a restful interval after the troublous times of the Civil War. He had made his peace with Caesar and reconciled himself to a life of retirement and literary activity. In the Senate he never spoke except to deliver a speech pleading for the return from e.xile of his friend Marcellus ; and his only other public appearance was to advocate the cause of another friend, Ligarius. In both he was successful ; and, indeed, so he seems also to have been in private appeals to Caesar on behalf of friends.
