Μορφές αυτοδιοίκησης, κοινωνική οργάνωση, συγκρότηση ταυτοτή­ των», αποτέλεσε η ανασύνθεση της ιστορίας των αστικών συσσωματώσεων που συγκροτήθηκαν στις βενετοκρατούμενες περιοχές της Πάργας (15ος αιώνας), της Πρέβεζας και της Βόνιτσας (18ος αιώνας), μέσα από στοιχεία που συγκεντρώθηκαν από το Κρατικό Αρχείο της Βενετίας και τις βιβλιο­ θήκες της πόλης. Για την ανασύνθεση της ιστορίας της Κοινότητας της Πάργας κατ' αρχάς κρίθηκε σκόπιμο να μελετηθεί και να αποδελτιωθεί το έργο του Ludwig Salvator, Parga, die Seestadt im Epirus\ το οποίο εκδόθηκε στις αρχές του 20ού αιώνα. Στο έργο αυτό δημοσιεύεται αρχειακό υλικό, το οποίο απόκει­ ται κυρίως στο Αρχείο του νομού Κέρκυρας και μέχρι σήμερα έχει παραμεί­ νει ανεκμετάλλευτο. Επιπλέον, το γεγονός ότι δεν έχει σωθεί ο καταστατικός χάρτης της Κοινότητας κατέστησε αναγκαίο να μελετηθούν τα κείμενα των πρεσβειών, που η πόλη της Πάργας κατά καιρούς απέστειλε στην κεντρική βενετική διοίκηση, καθώς και στους ανώτερους βενετούς αξιωματούχους * Η παρούσα μελέτη υλοποιήθηκε στο πλαίσιο του υποέργου «Ελληνικές Κοινότητες και Ευρωπαϊκός Κόσμος (13ος-19ος αι.).

  • Portable Archaeology”: Pashas from the Dalmatian Hinterland As Cultural Mediators
    Chapter 10 Connectivity, Mobility, and Mediterranean “Portable Archaeology”: Pashas from the Dalmatian Hinterland as Cultural Mediators Gülru Necipoğlu Considering the mobility of persons and stones is one way to reflect upon how movable or portable seemingly stationary archaeological sites might be. Dalmatia, here viewed as a center of gravity between East and West, was cen- tral for the global vision of Ottoman imperial ambitions, which peaked during the 16th century. Constituting a fluid “border zone” caught between the fluctu- ating boundaries of three early modern empires—Ottoman, Venetian, and Austrian Habsburg—the Dalmatian coast of today’s Croatia and its hinterland occupied a vital position in the geopolitical imagination of the sultans. The Ottoman aspiration to reunite the fragmented former territories of the Roman Empire once again brought the eastern Adriatic littoral within the orbit of a tri-continental empire, comprising the interconnected arena of the Balkans, Crimea, Anatolia, Iraq, Syria, Egypt, and North Africa. It is important to pay particular attention to how sites can “travel” through texts, drawings, prints, objects, travelogues, and oral descriptions. To that list should be added “traveling” stones (spolia) and the subjective medium of memory, with its transformative powers, as vehicles for the transmission of architectural knowledge and visual culture. I refer to the memories of travelers, merchants, architects, and ambassadors who crossed borders, as well as to Ottoman pashas originating from Dalmatia and its hinterland, with their extraordinary mobility within the promotion system of a vast eastern Mediterranean empire. To these pashas, circulating from one provincial post to another was a prerequisite for eventually rising to the highest ranks of vizier and grand vizier at the Imperial Council in the capital Istanbul, also called Ḳosṭanṭiniyye (Constantinople).

  • Sunny Sailing Holidays in Greece Ayios Stefanos Arillas Corfu
    Paxos route (1 week) Saturday Arrival Nidri Nidri is the home of Sunny Sailing. The view of the water is magnificent. The jetty lies in front of the Armonia hotel where one can make use of the many facilities that the hotel has to offer. Nidri itself has a lively village with a pleasant boulevard. Sunday Nidri - Lefkas Stad The Lefkas Marina is within walking distance of the lively center, where there are many shops and terraces. Although it is a small town, there is a lot to see and do here. There is the fortress of Agia Mavra, there are historic churches, a beautiful lagoon, beautiful squares and colorful narrow alleys. Monday Lefkas Stad - Parga Near the harbor stretches the town itself, which looks like a beautiful white village with red roofs unaffected by the course of time. The character of the town is lively and you can enjoy the restaurants and shops and the evening of the sunset between the castle and the island of Panagia. Tuesday Parga - Lakka The bay of the harbor town of Lakka on Paxos is often full of sailing boats and yachts and is bowl-shaped. The seawater in the bay has the most beautiful colors of blue and partly because of the olive trees and cypresses that grow up to the coastline, it looks like a lake. The harbor town has a small pedestrian promenade with numerous terraces and a few very good restaurants. Wednesday Lakka - Mongonisi Mongonissi on the island of Paxos is located in a protected bay where the water is shallow and the beach is on the doorstep.

  • Excavation of a 13Th-Century Church Near Vasilitsi
    hesperia yy (2008) EXCAVATION OF A Pages497S37 13TH-CENTURY CHURCH NEAR VASILITSI, SOUTHERN MESSENIA ABSTRACT A small-scaleexcavation in the area ofVasilitsi, southern Messenia, revealed the remnantsof a previouslyunrecorded 13th-centurytriple-aisled cross- vaulted churchwith a series of burials along its northwall. In addition to ceramicsand a marblebasin, a small hoard of Venetian torneselliwas found. The authordiscusses the church'speriod of use and details of its architecture and construction,as well as the identityof its builders and the settlement pattern of this largely unknown area. Parallels from published histories, surfacesurveys, and excavations fromother regions of medieval Messenia and Greece are discussed. An osteological reporton the burials is presented as an appendix. - In the past fewdecades, various regions of Messenia particularlytheir - Byzantine,Frankish, and Ottomanphases have attractedgreat interest amongarchaeologists, thereby providing a usefulbody of comparandafor currentwork in the area.1This report,which presents the results of exca- vationsin 2000 in southernMessenia, focuses on the remainsof a small 13th-centurychurch, probably built by a travelingguild of craftsmenfol- lowingLate Byzantineexamples in southernGreece.
