  • Social Cleavages and National “Awakening” in Ottoman Macedonia 1 by Basil C
    East European Quarterly 29 (1995), 409-426 Social cleavages and national “awakening” in Ottoman Macedonia 1 by Basil C. Gounaris In early summer 1992 a lavish monograph was published in Skopje entitled Macedonia on old Maps.2 In the first chapter of the book, which is called “A History without a Geography”, Ilija Petrushevski states that: “These maps present the undeniable historical and scientific facts about the distinctness of the Ìacedonian nation, which differs from its neighbours not only by its territory, which has always belonged to it, but also by its language, folklore, traditions and all the other elements of significance in ethnic differentiation”.3 Petrushevski’s attempt to support the existence of a nation by stressing its connection with an age-old ethnic core is not a new task in Balkan historiography, nor is it the first time that the testimony of old maps is being employed to serve such a cause.4 It has been stated that the advent of the European Enlightenment in the Ottoman Balkans involved a rather slow procedure. Describing, however, pre-independence nationalist feelings of the Balkan peoples, especially the situation in the hinterland of the peninsula (Macedonia included), is a demanding exercise, which far exceeds the purpose of this paper.5 In brief, modern Greek nationalism emerged in the 18th century and was affected by western ideas, but its actual roots lay in protonationalist phenomena noticed in the 13th century Byzantium.6 Under Ottoman rule these feelings were only partly preserved through the institutions of the millet system. The folk of the Ecumenical Patriarchate was the Rum-i-millet, with a population which, in addition to the Greek-speakers, included large numbers of Slav- Vlach and other non Greek- speaking Orthodox subjects of the Sultan.

  • Georgios Bikos' Music World: When Intuition Meets Rationality
    Kalliopi Stigka Georgios Bikos’ Music World: When Intuition Meets Rationality Abstract. Georgios Bikos (1967) is an unknown Greek contemporary composer. Composer, pianist, music teacher, sociologist, researcher and pedagogue are some of the expressions of the different facets of Bikos’ personality. Influenced by classical music as well as by contemporary music movements, Bikos expresses his thoughts and feelings, among others, through his original compositions in which often intuition meets rationality. Songs, music for solo instruments, choral music, chamber music and music for theatre have been created by Bikos over the last thirty years. As we are convinced that Bikos’ musical works are worth being known, in the frame of this paper, we wish, on the one hand, to present the unknown Greek composer and to expose his ideas about his sources of inspiration (poetry, politics etc.) and his creative principles through unedited private interviews, and on the other hand, to reveal the eventual meeting of intuition with rationality through specifically chosen musical extracts. Keywords: Greek contemporary music, Georgios Bikos, songs, music for solo instruments, choral music, chamber music, music for theatre. Introduction Rationality or intuition: by definition, is it about an eternal opposition or about a probable intercomple­ mentarity? The first concept, is expressed in Greek by the term “Λογική” [Logiki] which has its roots in the ancient Greek verb “λέγω” [lego] meaning “I speak/I propose”; from that verb also comes the term “λ/Λόγος” [Logos]. The “λόγος” [logos] refers to the capacity of the human being to use the language; it refers to the speech (discourse), to the words (paroles), whereas the “Λόγος” [Logos] which is a synonym of “Λογική” [Logiki] (rationality), it refers to the capacity of the human being to formulate his thoughts rationally and with argu­ ments and to formulate rational speech (Babiniotis 1998: 1023 and 1025; Academy of Athens 2014: 942).

Within ten years, Dresden’s prolific and acclaimed model of a citizens’ stage became a thriving and active example of inclusion and participation in theatre arts. In May 2019, Our Stage, the 4th European festival of, and on, citizens’ theatre was held in Dresden, offering a full week of performances, seminars, talks, workshops and discussions on various aspects of participatory theatre. The article offers a partial account of the festival and its performances in order to trace recent developments in applied, documentary and participatory theatre; it also tentatively attempts to address the notions of participation, inclusion and sharing in relation to contemporary Greek theatre and its performances.
