A West-East Traverse Along the Magmatism of the South Aegean Volcanic Arc in the Light of Volcanological, Chemical and Isotope Data
65 A West-East Traverse along the magmatism of the south Aegean volcanic arc in the light of volcanological, chemical and isotope data L. Francalanci1,2,∗, G.E. Vougioukalakis 3, G. Perini1, P. Manetti1,2 1 Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra, Università degli Studi di Firenze, via La Pira, 4, I-50121, Firenze, Italy. 2 C.N.R., I.G.G., Sezione di Firenze, via La Pira 4, I-50121, Firenze, Italy. 3 I.G.M.E, Mesogeion, 70, Athens, Greece. ABSTRACT The volcanic rocks of the South Aegean arc (SAAVA) form a chain from the Gulf of Saronikos (Susaki, Egina, Poros, Methana) at West, to an area close to the Anatolian coast at East (Kos, Nisyros and minor islands), through the central part (Milos and Santorini island groups). The volcanic activity began in the Lower Pliocene at Egina (4.7 Ma) and lasted until present days, with the still active Methana, Milos, Santorini and Nisyros volcanoes. The beginning of volcanism is younger in the central sector of the arc. Volcanic center location was controlled by large tectonic lineaments, most of them still active, trending E-W to NW-SE for the western part and mainly NE-SW for the central and eastern parts of the arc. Volcanic fields developed along ellipse shaped areas with the longest axis oriented perpendicular to the subduction front. In the western volcanic fields (Susaki, Egina-Poros-Methana and Milos), volcanic centers are mostly monogenetic and no composite volcanic structures are present. In the eastern sector of the arc, Santorini and Nisyros are important composite volcanoes with caldera structures. -

Konstantinopolis'in Bizans Öncesi Ve Bizans Sonrasi
KONSTANTİNOPOLİS’İN BİZANS ÖNCESİ VE BİZANS SONRASI MÜZİK MİRASI THOMAS APOSTOLOPOULOS* - KYRIAKOS KALAITZIDIS** ÇEV. ÖYKÜ ÖZER - ABDÜRRAHİM ÖZER I. KİLİSE MÜZİĞİ fermanının ilan edilmesini takip eden 11 yüzyıl boyunca Konstantinopolis, Hristiyanlığın en önde gelen başkenti 1. Bağlam ve Kaynaklar ve Bizans müziğinin geliştiği ana merkezlerden biri “Bizans müziği” ya da psaltiki terimleri bugün Doğu olmuştur. Nenizili Gregor ve Ioannes Hrisostomos (Altın Ortodoks Yunan Kilisesi’nin dinî müziğini simgeler zira bu Ağızlı Yuhanna) gibi, ilahi yazıcılığının kurucuları müzik, Bizans İmparatorluğu zamanında ortaya çıkarak olan ve kiliseye müziği sokan kilise babaları aynı gelişmiştir. “Bizans” (Bizans tarihi, Bizans sanatı, vs.) zamanda Konstantinopolis’in yani “Yeni Roma”nın teriminin kökeni ise hiç şüphesiz Konstantinopolis’in başpiskoposlarıdır. Antakyalı Ioannes Hrisostomos (IV. Antik Yunan dönemindeki ismine dayanmaktadır. Ne var yüzyıl), bir kutsal ayin bestelemiş ve halk ezgilerinin ki bu terim XVI. yüzyılda Alman filologları tarafından troparia olarak takdim edilmesine izin vermişti. Bu şekilde türetilmiş ve XIX. yüzyıl Avrupa’sındaki siyasi iktidarları Hristiyanlığın üzerinde uzlaşılmış temel doktrinlerine tarafından, dönemin Romania, Romaikos ve Romeos gibi karşı gelen Arius’un benzer girişimlerine karşı mücadele aslına daha uygun terimlerini yasaklamak ve bunların edecekti. Hrisostomos’un yaptığı kapsamlı yorumlar, yerine kullanılmak üzere bilinçli olarak benimsenmiştir. erken dönem Bizans’ı hakkında çok değerli bir kaynak Konstantinopolis’te üretilen Bizans müziğinin tarihindeki olduğu gibi psaltikinin çalgısız bir vokal müzik türü safhalar birbirlerinden üç olay ile ayrılır: Şehrin Büyük olarak gelişimine de büyük katkıda bulunmuştur. Gelmiş Konstantinos tarafından kurulması ve Doğu Roma geçmiş en büyük ilahi yazarı, kontakia şairi ve büyük İmparatorluğu’nun başkenti ilan edilmesi (S 330), şehrin ihtimalle “Akathist İlahi”yi de kaleme almış olan, Suriye 1453’te Türkler tarafından fethedilmesi ve 1814’te “Yeni kökenli Romanos Melodos (Besteci Romanos), VI. -

Examples of such Community actions include Directives on the conservation of wild birds, the implementation in the Community of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, and the proposed Directive to protect important Community habitats. Fundamental to these policies are the principles of the world conservation strategy - the maintenance of essential ecological processes and life support systems, the preservation of genetic diversity and the sustainable use of species and ecosystems. Above all, it is recognized that the conservation of threatened biological organisms is critically dependent on our ability to maintain suitable habitats in sufficient numbers, sufficient in extent and with adequate geographic dispersal to ensure their survival. -

Introduction Acknowledgements
10 11 Acknowledgements Introduction General geography of Greece Greece is a relatively small country, and with a surface area of 132,000 km2 it is only half as big as the UK. Encompassed, however, in this modest area, is a great diversity of habitats, exceeding many European countries of much larger size. For example, one can encounter in Epirus alpine areas complete with lush conifer forests, dramatic peaks and extensive snowfields that physiographically resemble Switzerland. On the other hand, some regions of the southern Aegean are closer to Africa than to Athens, and their climate and habitats reflect this proximity. Southeastern Crete for example, con- tains one of the few true European deserts, an area closely resembling certain hamma- da regions of the Middle East. Greece is a country of mountains and islands. The Pindos range, an extension of the Dinaric Alps, forms the backbone of peninsular Greece. A number of smaller mountains originate as spurs from this block, although some, including Mount Olympus, the highest mountain in Greece (2,917 m elevation) arise in relative isola- tion. A second major mountain block, the Rhodopes, located in Thrace, runs in a roughly east-west direction separating Greece and Bulgaria. The Peloponnese, a small- er peninsula in the south, is as mountainous as the mainland and encompasses several peaks exceeding 2,000 m in elevation. With the exception of a few large flat regions located mostly in Thessaly and Thrace, the country lacks extensive plains. Typically the mountains drop rather steeply into the sea and are generally flanked only by narrow coastal plains.
