Stassinopoulou, die mir nicht nur jederzeit mit Rat und Tat zur Seite stand und mir Quellenmaterial und Notizen aus ihrem privaten Fundus zur Verfügung stellte, sondern auch den Fortgang meiner Arbeit stets mit wertvollen Anregungen und Denkanstössen begleitete. Herr Kostas Lappas von der Akademie Athen empfing mich freundlich und war gerne bereit mir bei der Quellensuche zu helfen. Weiters bedanke ich mich bei Prof. Alexis Politis von der Universität Kreta, der mir bei der Literatursuche zur ersten Beschäftigung mit dem Thema Koumas behilflich war. Herrn Emmanouil Fragkiskos danke ich für die Informationen zur Überlieferung der Briefe von Korais, die er mir freundlicherweise gab. Meiner Freundin Nathalie Soursos möchte ich herzlich für die Mühe danken, mir „vergessene Briefe“ aus der Gennadius-Bibliothek in Athen zu kopieren und zu schicken. Zu guter Letzt danke ich meiner Familie, die mich immer in allen meinen Entscheidungen unterstützt und bestärkt hat. 4 Einleitung Vorliegende Diplomarbeit befasst sich mit dem Thema der griechischen Epistolographie, und zwar anhand des konkreten Falles der Briefe des neugriechischen Gelehrten Konstantinos M. Koumas. Zu Beginn meiner Beschäftigung mit der griechischen Epistolographie stand eine Lehrveranstaltung mit dem Titel „Kulturgeschichte des byzantinischen Briefes“ bei Dr. Michael Grünbart im Wintersemester 2003, bei der ich vieles gelernt habe, das mir für diese Arbeit von Nutzen war. Mein Interesse für die neugriechische Aufklärung wurde in zwei Lehrveranstaltungen zum Thema bei Prof. Dr. Maria A. Stassinopoulou im Wintersemester 2005 geweckt, woraus schließlich die Entscheidung hervorging, mich in meiner Diplomarbeit mit einem Thema aus diesem Bereich, nämlich der Person von Konstantinos Koumas, zu befassen. Ich hatte es mir zum Ziel gesetzt, die gesamte erhaltene Korrespondenz von Koumas zu sammeln und stilistisch zu untersuchen, was im Rahmen einer Magisterarbeit möglich ist, da Koumas` Briefe nicht systematisch gesammelt wurden und seine Korrespondenz daher im Vergleich zu anderen griechischen Gelehrten der Zeit wie Korais oder Oikonomos einen geringen Umfang besitzt. Im Rahmen des Seminars „Neugriechische Epistolographie“ bei Prof. Dr. Maria A. Stassinopoulou im Sommersemester 2007 begann ich mit der systematischen Sammlung und Zusammenstellung des Quellenmaterials, wobei ich zur besseren Organisation der Informationen mit einer Filemaker-Datenbank arbeitete, die es mir ermöglicht, die Briefe nach verschiedenen

  • Treating Two 18Th Century Maps of the Danube in Association with Google-Provided Imagery
    ON THE DIGITAL REVIVAL OF HISTORIC CARTOGRAPHY: TREATING TWO 18TH CENTURY MAPS OF THE DANUBE IN ASSOCIATION WITH GOOGLE-PROVIDED IMAGERY Evangelos Livieratos Angeliki Tsorlini Maria Pazarli [email protected] Chrysoula Boutoura Myron Myridis Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Faculty of Surveying Engineering University Campus, Box 497 GRE - 541 24 Thessaloniki, Greece Abstract The great navigable Danube River (known as the Istros River to the Ancient Greeks and as one of the crucial ends of the Roman Empire northern territories) is an emblematic fluvial feature of the overall European historic and cultural heritage in the large. Originating in the German Black Forest as two small rivers (Brigach and Breg) converging at the town of Donaueschingen, Danube is flowing for almost 2850 km mainly eastwards, passing through ten states (Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova and Ukraine) and four European capitals (Vienna, Bratislava, Budapest and Belgrade) with embouchure in the west coasts of the Black Sea via the Danube Delta, mainly in Romania. Danube played a profound role in the European political, social, economic and cultural history influencing in a multifold manner the heritage of many European nations, some of those without even a physical connection with the River, as it is the case of the Greeks, to whom the Danube is a reference to their own 18th century Enlightenment movement. Due to Danube’s important role in History, the extensive emphasis to its cartographic depiction was obviously a conditio sine qua non especially in the 17th and 18th century European cartography. In this paper, taking advantage of the modern digital technologies as applied in the recently established domain of cartographic heritage, two important and historically significant 18th century maps of the Danube are comparatively discussed in view also to the reference possibilities available today in relevant studies by the digital maps offered by powerful providers as e.g.

Transfer of the cartography of the Travels of Anacharsis the Younger , 1788-1811 Keywords : Late Enlightenment; Antiquarian cartography of Greece; Abbé Barthélemy; Anacharsis; Barbié du Bocage ; Guillaume Delisle; Rigas Velestinlis Charta. Summary The aim of this paper is to present an instance of cultural transfer within the field of late Enlightenment antiquarian cartography of Greece, examining a series of maps printed in French and Greek, in Paris and Vienna, between 1788 and 1811 and related to Abbé Barthé- lemy’s Travels of Anacharsis the Younger in Greece . The case-study allows analysing the al- terations of the content of the work and the changes of its symbolic functions, alterations due first to the transferral of medium (from a textual description to a cartographic representation) and next, to the successive transfers of the work in diverse cultural environments. The trans- fer process makes it possible to investigate some aspects of the interplay of classical studies, antiquarian erudition and politics as a form of interaction between the French and the Greek culture of the period. ‘The eye of History’ The Travels of Anacharsis the Younger in Greece , by Abbé Jean-Jacques Barthélemy (1716- 1795) 1, was published on the eve of the French Revolution (1788) and had a manifest effect on its public. “In those days”, the Perpetual Secretary of the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles Lettres, Bon-Joseph Dacier (1742-1833) was to recall in 1826, “an unexpected sight came to impress and surprise our spirit.

  • The Eye of History
    ANTIQUARIANISM, PATRIOTISM AND EMPIRE: TRANSFERS OF THE CARTOGRAPHY OF THE TRAVELS OF ANACHARSIS THE YOUNGER IN GREECE (1788-1811) George Tolias ABSTRACT: The aim of this paper is to present an instance of cultural transfer within the field of late Enlightenment antiquarian cartography of Greece, examining a series of maps printed in French and Greek, in Paris and Vienna, between 1788 and 1811 and related to Abbé Barthélemy’s Travels of Anacharsis the Younger in Greece. The case study analyses the alterations of the content of the work and the changes of its symbolic functions, alterations due first to the transferral of medium (from a textual description to a cartographic representation) and next, to the successive transfers of the work in diverse cultural environments. The transfer process makes it possible to investigate some aspects of the interplay of classical studies, antiquarian erudition and politics as a form of interaction between the French and the Greek intelligentsia of the period. “The Eye of History” The Travels of Anacharsis the Younger in Greece, by Abbé Jean-Jacques Barthélemy (1716-1795),1 was published on the eve of the French Revolution (1788) and had a manifest effect on its public. “In those days,” the Perpetual Secretary of the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles Lettres, Bon-Joseph Dacier (1742-1833), was to recall in 1826 an unexpected sight came to impress and surprise our spirit. A Scythian appeared all at once in our midst. A Scythian who had seen Philip ascend to the throne of Macedonia, witnessed the heroism of liberty fighting political genius over twenty-two years, seen democratic Greece, dormant in its own glory, fall into the hands of this king, and his son Alexander, heralding in the Battle of Chaironeia the destruction of the Persian empire.

  • The Anthimos Gazis World Map in Kozani
    e-Perimetron , Vol. 3, No. 2, 2008 [95-100] www.e-perimetron.org | ISSN 1790-3769 Evangelos Livieratos ∗ The Anthimos Gazis world map in Kozani Keywords: Anthimos Gazis; 18 th century cartography; world maps; rare maps; Greek cartography; Greek Enlightenment. Summary The rare large dimensions world map by the Greek scholar Anthimos Gazis (1758- 1828) published in four sheets, Vienna 1800, was recently identified at the Municipal Library of the city of Kozani, Greece. The map in an advanced state of deterioration was carefully restored and will be part of the map collection of the newly established Municipal Map Library of Kozani. In this note a short description of the map is car- ried out in the context of its cartographic typology and its role to the case of Greek Enlightenment. Introduction Anthimos Gazis 1 (1758-1828) from Mēlies in Mount Pēlion, Thessaly, is a known scholar of the Greek Enlightenment 2 active in the late 18 th and early 19 th century. Among his early contributions, for the case of education and cultural revival of Greeks in the eve of the Greek War of Independence (1821-1828), the publication of his geography books and maps is worth mentioning. Gazis’ editorial initiatives are developed during his servicing as parish priest at the Greek-Orthodox church of St George in Vienna, the city where his coetaneous Rigas Velestinlis, also from Thessaly, published his famous Charta in twelve sheets only three years before (1797) 3. Actually, the Anthimos Gazis map of Greece 4 in four sheets (Vienna 1800) is considered as inspired (even as derived) from Rigas Charta, both engraved by Franz Müller.

  • 159 Various Finds Either Still in Situ Or at the Archaeological Museum of Istanbul, As Well As His Own Research Carried in This Region
    Book Reviews 159 various finds either still in situ or at the Archaeological Museum of Istanbul, as well as his own research carried in this region. In the Introduction (pp. 1-4), it is stated that in comparing the research work on the Bosphorus, concerning the ancient period with the Byzantine one, it becomes evident that there is much to be desired for the latter. Accordingly the author proceeds to the analysis of sources, reference books (pp. 5-12), and gives an historical background (pp. 14-15), on the Straits of Bosphorus. Examining the European shore from Galata to the Black Sea (pp. 15-48), the author enumerates monasteries, churches, summer palaces etc., as well as architectural remains and tries to identify the sites mentioned in the Byzantine texts with modem place-names. He discusses also the opinions of various authors and brings forth his own conclusions. In the same way he examines the Asiatic shore starting from Skoutari up to the Black Sea. In (pp. 72-93) he discusses at length the Byzantine fort “Ιερόν” (Yoros Kalesi) situ­ ated in the military zone of Bosphorus, correcting mistakes of previous authors and pointing out certain obscure parts in the history of this fort. Consequently, in his epilogue (pp. ΙΟΒ­ Ι 12), the author evaluates the research work up to the present and emphasizes the lack of information for A thorough study on the subject. Also he brings to the attention of the reader the points which should be investigated better for A future broader study. This is in short the content of Professor Eyice’s book.
