Tomko Dr. Anthea Kraut Copyright Natalie Zervou 2015 The Dissertation of Natalie Zervou is approved: Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside Acknowledgments This dissertation is the result of four years of intensive research, even though I have been engaging with this topic and the questions discussed here long before that. Having been born in Greece, and having lived there till my early twenties, it is the place that holds all my childhood memories, my first encounters with dance, my friends, and my family. From a very early age I remember how I always used to say that I wanted to study dance and then move to the US to pursue my dream. Back then I was not sure what that dream was, other than leaving Greece, where I often felt like I did not belong. Being here now, in the US, I think I found it and I must admit that when I first begun my pursuit in graduate studies in dance, I was very hesitant to engage in research concerning Greece.

Univ. Prof. Dr. Ing. Dörte Kuhlmann E251 Institut für Kunstgeschichte, Bauforschung und Denkmalpflege Abteilung für Baugeschichte & Bauforschung eingereicht an der Technischen Universität Wien Fakultät für Architektur und Raumplanung von Jekaterina Medvecka Matr. Nr.:0828369 Wien, am Abstract The Narrenturm, which is located within the medical complex of the University of Vienna, was the first dedicated medical institution for the mentally ill worldwide. In 2012 the Narrentum was integrated into the Naturhistorisches Museum Wien (the Museum of Natural History in Vienna) and since then houses the pathological-anatomical collection of the museum. The cylindrical building was erected in 1784 and was financed privately by Emperor Joseph II. It was ahead of it’s time in many ways and indicates the emperor’s embracement of the ideas of Enlightenment. The construction of the building raises several unanswered questions and mysteries. Up to this day, it is unknown where the emperor got the idea for the peculiar form of the building and why helping mentally ill patients was so important to him. The circular floor plan suggests a possible connection to Bentham’s idea of the Panopticon which deserves further investigation.

There have been studies discussing the diffusion of the R new ideas about nature in England, Scotland, France, the Low Countries and Germany during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Nevertheless, respective works in languages other than the local languages for the Balkans, the Ottoman Empire, the Central European countries, the Baltic countries, Portugal, but also Spain have been very few and written mostly from a philological point of view.1 The lack of studies of any subject does not, of course, constitute by itself a legitimate reason for starting to work on it.

200Th Anniversary of the Greek War of Independence 1821-2021 18 1821-2021
Special Edition: 200th Anniversary of the Greek War of Independence 1821-2021 18 1821-2021 A publication of the Dean C. and Zoë S. Pappas Interdisciplinary March 2021 VOLUME 1 ISSUE NO. 3 Center for Hellenic Studies and the Friends of Hellenic Studies From the Director Dear Friends, On March 25, 1821, in the city of Kalamata in the southern Peloponnesos, the chieftains from the region of Mani convened the Messinian Senate of Kalamata to issue a revolutionary proclamation for “Liberty.” The commander Petrobey Mavromichalis then wrote the following appeal to the Americans: “Citizens of the United States of America!…Having formed the resolution to live or die for freedom, we are drawn toward you by a just sympathy; since it is in your land that Liberty has fixed her abode, and by you that she is prized as by our fathers.” He added, “It is for you, citizens of America, to crown this glory, in aiding us to purge Greece from the barbarians, who for four hundred years have polluted the soil.” The Greek revolutionaries understood themselves as part of a universal struggle for freedom. It is this universal struggle for freedom that the Pappas Center for Hellenic Studies and Stockton University raises up and celebrates on the occasion of the 200th anniversary of the beginning of the Greek Revolution in 1821. The Pappas Center IN THIS ISSUE for Hellenic Studies and the Friends of Hellenic Studies have prepared this Special Edition of the Hellenic Voice for you to enjoy.

H. Res. 273 In the House of Representatives, U. S., March 25, 2009. Whereas the ancient Greeks developed the concept of democ- racy, in which the supreme power to govern was vested in the people; Whereas the Founding Fathers of the United States, many of whom read Greek political philosophy in its original text, drew heavily on the political experience and philos- ophy of ancient Greece in forming our representative de- mocracy; Whereas the Greek national anthem (Hymn to Liberty) in- cludes the words, ‘‘Most heartily was gladdened George Washington’s brave land’’; Whereas Greek Commander in Chief Petros Mavromichalis, a founder of the modern Greek state, said to the citizens of the United States in 1821 that ‘‘it is in your land that liberty has fixed her abode and . in imitating you, we shall imitate our ancestors and be thought worthy of them if we succeed in resembling you’’; Whereas the people of the United States generously offered humanitarian assistance to the Greek people during their struggle for independence; Whereas Greece played a major role in the World War II struggle to protect freedom and democracy through such 2 bravery as was shown in the historic Battle of Crete, which provided the Axis land war with its first major set- back, setting off a chain of events that significantly af- fected the outcome of World War II; Whereas the price for Greece in holding onto our common values in their region was high, as hundreds of thousands of civilians were killed in Greece during World War II; Whereas, throughout the 20th century,

The Greek Marseillaise of Rhigas Velestinlis
THE GREEK MARSEILLAISE OF RHIGAS VELESTINLIS The Court archives of the investigation held at Vienna on Rhigas’ arrest turn our attention to a re-study of the subject, even if we lacked all other evi dence about his having composed A poem, which is A free version, or A mere imitation of the French Marseillaise.1 In the reports of the Austrian examiner it is recorded that, as appears from the testimony of Dr. Demetrios Nicolides, one of the principal persons among those accused, and as confirmed by the statements of those indicted with him, the “conspirators” meeting at Argenti’s home sang, besides Rhigas’ War March, some strophes of the Marseillaise Allons enfants.г Elsewhere, from the testimony of Kaspar Peters, instructor in French, the Austrian inquiry brings to light that Philip Petrovich, the youngest and most enthusiastic of Rhigas’ companions, asked of Peters (as Petrovich himself knew no French),'to translate into German apparently the text of the Marseillaise. Peters promised, but in the end only copied the text, which he handed over to Petrovich.13 2 Rhigas followed the events of the French Revolution with anxious inter est, as he drew his political ideology from it, and relied on its contribution for the liberation of Greece. So he used to instil his revolutionary spirit into his comrades by applying the music of French rebel songs to free renderings of them into Greek, or to verses of his own inspiration. It would seam strange to us if he had ignored, or passed over in silence the renowned revolutionary 1.
