Firstly, this research investigates the relationship between the variables of professional burnout and satisfaction among physical education teachers who work in sports organizations of large municipalities in the region of Attica, Greece. Secondly, the relationship between organizational factors and the variables of professional burnout and satisfaction was examined. All the teachers who took part in the survey are occupied in a municipal program called “Sports for all”. With the method of random sampling, a total of 100 questionnaires, representing 10% of the survey population, were filled out by physical education teachers, occupied in 9 municipalities of Attica (Marousi, Kifissia, Heraklion, Metamorfosi-Pefki, N. Ionia, N. Philadelphia, Ilion, Haidari). The analysis reveals that Greek physical education teachers reported low levels of professional burnout and high levels of professional satisfaction. Moreover the results confirm the existence of a relationship between organizational factors, professional burnout and satisfaction.

The purpose of this study was to strength or resources. In 1980, Cherniss investigate the relationship between described professional burnout as "the professional burnout and satisfaction for the disease of over commitment" (Rogers & case of physical education teachers working Dodson, 1988). There are many studies that in sports programs organized by municipal have attempted to define burnout, but the authorities. The role of local authorities in most widely accepted definition has been the provision of recreational and social proposed by Maslach & Jackson (1981): services is important, in order to satisfy the "Burnout is a syndrome of emotional public interest (Torkildsen, 1999). Generally, exhaustion and cynicism that occurs local authorities play an important role for frequently among individuals who do establishing close relationships because of ‘people-work’ of some kind".

  • Archaic Eretria
    ARCHAIC ERETRIA This book presents for the first time a history of Eretria during the Archaic Era, the city’s most notable period of political importance. Keith Walker examines all the major elements of the city’s success. One of the key factors explored is Eretria’s role as a pioneer coloniser in both the Levant and the West— its early Aegean ‘island empire’ anticipates that of Athens by more than a century, and Eretrian shipping and trade was similarly widespread. We are shown how the strength of the navy conferred thalassocratic status on the city between 506 and 490 BC, and that the importance of its rowers (Eretria means ‘the rowing city’) probably explains the appearance of its democratic constitution. Walker dates this to the last decade of the sixth century; given the presence of Athenian political exiles there, this may well have provided a model for the later reforms of Kleisthenes in Athens. Eretria’s major, indeed dominant, role in the events of central Greece in the last half of the sixth century, and in the events of the Ionian Revolt to 490, is clearly demonstrated, and the tyranny of Diagoras (c. 538–509), perhaps the golden age of the city, is fully examined. Full documentation of literary, epigraphic and archaeological sources (most of which have previously been inaccessible to an English-speaking audience) is provided, creating a fascinating history and a valuable resource for the Greek historian. Keith Walker is a Research Associate in the Department of Classics, History and Religion at the University of New England, Armidale, Australia.

  • La Metamorfosi Di Dioniso E L'inno Omerico
    Cornelia Isler-Kerényi La metamorfosi di Dioniso e l’inno omerico VII Abstract The Homeric hymn VII, of which the date is controversial, tells of the kidnapping of Dionysus in the guise of an adolescent by a band of Tyrrenian pirates and their punishment. In his ceramic iconography in the Archaic age the God is always represented as a mature man. Only from 430 B.C. is he presented as an adolescent like he is at the East pediment of the Parthenon. Analysing the form of Dionysus in the works of the most important and productive Athenian vase-painters during this period helps us to understand the meaning of such a transformation. These works highlight the divinity of the Bacchic mysteries more than the official patron of the city and reflect the political and cultural climate which changed in Athens in the last decade of the 5th Century B.C. The iconographic situation makes it difficult to imagine that it was possible to sing about an adolescent Dionysus before 430 B.C. L’inno omerico VII, di datazione controversa, racconta il sequestro di Dioniso nelle sembianze di un efebo da parte di pirati tirreni e il loro castigo. Nella sua iconografia vascolare in età arcai- ca il dio si presenta invece sempre in età matura. In forme giovanili, come nel frontone est del Partenone, viene raffigurato solo a partire dal 430 a.C. circa. Nel prendere in esame l’immagine di Dioniso nell’opera dei ceramografi ateniesi più importanti attivi in quel periodo si cerca di definire meglio il significato di tale metamorfosi.
