School Event for the Celebration of March 25, 1821 SCHOOL EVENT FOR THE CELEBRATION OF MARCH 25, 1821 On Monday afternoon, March 13/26, 2018, the national celebration of March 25, 1821 was honoured with a school event at the Patriarchal School of Zion. The celebration was attended by the Patriarchal Commissioner Most Reverend Metropolitan Isychios of Kapitolias, the Chairman of the School Board Geronda Sacristan Most Reverend Archbishop Isidoros of Hierapolis, the Consul General of Greece in Jerusalem Mr. Christos Sophianopoulos with some of the Greek Consulate members, monks and nuns of the Patriarchate, members of the Greek Community in Jerusalem and pilgrims. The event schedule included a foreword by the School Director Dragouman Archimandrite Mattheos, the festal speech by Science Teacher Mr. Nikolaos Souliotis, recitation of texts and poems and a short play related to the Revolution, as well as videos relevant to the historic events of 1821. The well organized school event brought back to the memory of the spectators the sufferings of the Greeks, who were oppressed for 400 years by the Turkish yoke, and their heroic fight in self-denial. The Greeks offered their properties, fought in the battle fields and sacrificed their lives, resulting in the national spring and resurrection of the Nation. There was special commemoration of names of friends of Greeks and of heroes of the Revolution, such as Papaflessas, Kolokotronis, Nikitaras, Bouboulina, M. Mavrogenous, Athanasios Diakos and the Holy Clergymen. At the end of the event the Patriarchal Commissioner and the Consul General congratulated all active participants. A festal reception was offered at the School reception hall.

  • Albanian Families' History and Heritage Making at the Crossroads of New
    Voicing the stories of the excluded: Albanian families’ history and heritage making at the crossroads of new and old homes Eleni Vomvyla UCL Institute of Archaeology Thesis submitted for the award of Doctor in Philosophy in Cultural Heritage 2013 Declaration of originality I, Eleni Vomvyla confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signature 2 To the five Albanian families for opening their homes and sharing their stories with me. 3 Abstract My research explores the dialectical relationship between identity and the conceptualisation/creation of history and heritage in migration by studying a socially excluded group in Greece, that of Albanian families. Even though the Albanian community has more than twenty years of presence in the country, its stories, often invested with otherness, remain hidden in the Greek ‘mono-cultural’ landscape. In opposition to these stigmatising discourses, my study draws on movements democratising the past and calling for engagements from below by endorsing the socially constructed nature of identity and the denationalisation of memory. A nine-month fieldwork with five Albanian families took place in their domestic and neighbourhood settings in the areas of Athens and Piraeus. Based on critical ethnography, data collection was derived from participant observation, conversational interviews and participatory techniques. From an individual and family group point of view the notion of habitus led to diverse conceptions of ethnic identity, taking transnational dimensions in families’ literal and metaphorical back- and-forth movements between Greece and Albania.

  • 19. YÜZYIL AVRUPA ROMANTİKLERİNİN 1821 MORA İSYANI ÜZERİNDEKİ SİYASİ VE KÜLTÜREL ETKİLERİ1 Esra ÖZSÜER*
    Türkiyat Mecmuası, c. 26/2, 2016, 325-344 19. YÜZYIL AVRUPA ROMANTİKLERİNİN 1821 MORA İSYANI ÜZERİNDEKİ SİYASİ VE KÜLTÜREL ETKİLERİ1 Esra ÖZSÜER* ÖZ 1789 Fransız Devrimi sonrasında Monarşinin çöküşü eşitlik, özgürlük ve adalet kavramlarının halka ait olduğu yönündeki düşüncenin ortaya çıkmasına sebep oldu. Böyle bir düşünce sistemi ilkesel olarak Ġmparatorluk içinde yaşayan ulusların kendi kimliklerini keşfetmesine ve ulus-devlet anlayışı ile milliyetçi olgunun doğmasına sebebiyet verdi. Nitekim akılcı düşüncenin egemen olduğu Aydınlanma Çağı ve akabinde Avrupa'da oluşan Romantik akım karşısında hiçbir imparatorluğun varlığını tek güç olarak sürdürmesi olası değildi. Böyle bir süreç elbette ki dönemin etkin gücü olan Osmanlı Ġmparatorluğu içinde farklı ulusların imparatorluğa karşı isyan hareketlerini de beraberinde getirdi. Balkanlar'da çıkan bu isyanlar sonucunda Osmanlı Ġmparatorluğundan bağımsızlığını ilk alan Yunanistan, 1821-1829 yılları arasında yaşanan isyan sürecinde en büyük desteği Avrupa'dan gördü. Antik Yunan hayranlığının hüküm sürdüğü Avrupa'da temel gündem demokrasi ve özgür düşüncenin doğduğu toprakların kendi Oryantalist düşünceleri doğrultusunda despot ve "Doğulu" saydığı Osmanlı'dan kurtarılması gerekliliğiydi. Nitekim Avrupa'daki Rönesans ve Reform hareketlerinin oluşması Yunan'ın atalarından kalan bir mirasın da neticesiydi. Avrupa böyle bir bilincin ötesinde "Yunan Davasını" kendileri açısından vicdani bir mesele olarak da görüyordu. Avrupa Yunanistan'a bir özgürlük borçluydu ve bu borcun ödenmesi için her türlü ekonomik, siyasi, kültürel ve askeri desteğin verilmesi gerekliydi. Başta Lord Byron, Victor Hugo, Chateaubrıand, Shelley gibi dönemin Romantikleri gerek verdikleri eserlerle gerek bizzat davanın içinde aktif rol alarak isyan süresince Yunanistan'a yardım ve destekte bulundular, Avrupa'nın pek çok yerinden gelen Filhelenler Antik Yunan'ı yeniden bulma ve yaratma ümidiyle geldikleri Yunan topraklarında isyana bizzat katılıp destek verdiler.

    Chapter 3 GREEK HISTORY The French Academician Michel Déon has written: "In Greece contemporary man, so often disoriented, discovers a quite incredible joy; he discovers his roots.” GREECE - HELLAS [Greeks] denoted the inhabitants of 700 or more city-states in the Greek peninsula The roots of much of the Western world lie in including Epirus, Macedonia, Thrace, Asia the civilizations of the ancient Greece and Minor, and many of the shores of the Rome. This chapter is intended to bring you Mediterranean and the Black Seas. small pieces of those rich roots of our Greek past. The objectives of this chapter are: first, Life in Greece first appeared on the Halkidiki to enrich our consciousness with those bits of Peninsula dated to the Middle Paleolithic era information and to build an awareness of what (50.000 B.C). Highly developed civilizations it means to be connected with the Greek past; appeared from about 3000 to 2000 B.C. and second, to relate those parts of Greek During the Neolithic period, important history that affected the migrations of the cultural centers developed, especially in Greeks during the last few centuries.

The famous Minoan advanced prehistoric culture of 2800-1100 B.C. appeared in Crete.
