  • Early Nineteenth-Century British Drama and the Greek War of Independence
    Staging Transcultural Relations: Early Nineteenth-Century British Drama and the Greek War of Independence Alexander Grammatikos, Langara College Abstract Keywords This paper examines two British Romantic dramas written Nineteenth-Century British during the Greek War of Independence and its aftermath: George Drama; Greek War of Burges’s The Son of Erin or the Cause of the Greeks (1823) Independence; British Romantic and John Baldwin Buckstone’s The Maid of Athens; or, the Re- Hellenism; Philhellenism; Lord volt of the Greeks (1829). The paper discusses the plays’ portray- Byron als of transcultural interactions between Greeks and Europeans (Irish and British) and argues that the two dramas encourage audiences to see similarities between themselves and Greeks, while also critiquing British apathy toward the Greeks’ efforts to achieve liberation. Despite Burges’s and Buckstone’s shared support for the Greek war, however, an important difference between the two texts exists: while The Son of Erin maintains a relentless attack on the British government for aligning British politics with Ot- toman policies and remaining indifferent toward the Greek war, The Maid of Athens suggests that Britons who take advantage of Greeks’ subjugation misrepresent Britain’s true feelings about the Greek War of Independence. JMH 34 (2019): Special Issue JMH 34 (2019): Special Issue Article: Alexander Grammatikos Introduction In his seminal text, That Greece Might Still Be Free: The Philhellenes in the War of Independence, William St. Clair writes that “[o]ne of the surprising features of the history of philhellenism during the Greek War of Independence is the slowness of the response in Britain.

So coldly sweet, so deadly fair, We start, for soul is wanting there… Lord Byron, The Giaour, 1813 George Tolias ABStraCT: This essay aims to survey certain key aspects of philhellenism underpinned by the recent and past bibliography on the issue. By exploring the definitions of the related terms, their origins and their various meanings, the paper underscores the notion of “revival” as a central working concept of philhellenic ideas and activities and explores its transformations, acceptances or rejections in Western Europe and in Greece during the period from 1770 to 1870. Philhellenisms “TheF rench are by tradition philhellenes.” With this phrase, the authors of Le Petit Robert exemplified the modern usage of the wordphilhellène , explaining that it denotes those sympathetic to Greece. Although the chosen example refers to a tradition, the noun “philhellene” entered the French vocabulary in 1825 as a historical term which denoted someone who championed the cause of Greek independence. According to the same dictionary, the term “philhellenism” started to be used in French in 1838.

  • George Jarvis
    GEORGE JARVIS AN AMERICAN FIGHTER FOR GREEK INDEPENDENCE presented by James L. Marketos AHI Noon Forum March 23, 2006 INTRODUCTION I thought it would be fitting to commemorate Greek Independence Day by examining the brief but eventful life of George Jarvis, the first American volunteer in the Greek war of indepence. We know regrettably few details about Jarvis. He reached Greece nearly three years before the better-known American Philhellenes, Samuel Gridley Howe and Jonathan P. Miller. He died young, near the end of the conflict. So almost nothing is known of Jarvis apart from what is contained in his own handwritten record of events and in occasional references to him by others. Jarvis did not live long enough to see the invention of the camera, so we have no photo of him; and there is no known painting. His co-Philhellenes gave us glimpses, however. Miller said that “[Jarvis] possessed an uncommonly strong constitution and great energy of character,” and that “He has probably seen more fighting and undergone more hardships than any foreigner who has taken part in this contest, having been frequently sick and wounded.” Howe described Jarvis as having “become a complete Greek in dress, manners, and language.” Jarvis was born in Germany in 1798 and was educated there as well. His father, Benjamin Jarvis of New York, had a position with the U.S. government at The Hague. Jarvis was fluent in English, German, and French. By the time he died of “natural causes” (presumably disease) on August 11, 1828, he had also learned to speak, read, and write Greek.

    THE MODERNIZATION OF THE OTTOMAN NAVY DURING THE REIGN OF SULTAN ABDÜLAZİZ (1861-1876) by DİLARA DAL A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Centre for Byzantine, Ottoman and Modern Greek Studies Department of Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham April, 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT The main focus of this study is to examine the modernization of the Ottoman navy during the reign of Sultan Abdülaziz, exploring naval administration, education, and technology. Giving a summary of the transformation of shipbuilding technologies and bureaucratic institutions of the Ottoman naval forces between 1808 and 1861, it analyses the structure of the Ottoman navy, its level of development in comparison to previous periods of time, and the condition of the vessels making up the naval fleet from 1861 to 1876. It also intends to evaluate the character of existing administrative structures at the outset of Abdülaziz’s reign in 1861 and the nature of subsequent changes, including structural reorganization of the Imperial Naval Arsenal, the Ministry of Marine, and the Naval Academy, as well as advancements in military training and seafaring; all within the context of the impact of these changes on the military, political, and economic condition of the Empire during the reign of Sultan Abdülaziz.

    The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project SYLVIA BAZALA Interviewed by: Charles Stuart Kennedy Initial interview date: February 3, 2014 Copyright 2015 ADST Q: Today is the February 3, 2014, with Sylvia Bazala. This is being done on behalf of the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training and I’m Charles Stuart Kennedy. Sylvia, let’s start at the beginning. When and where were you born? BAZALA: I was born in Virginia, in Portsmouth. My father was in the U.S Navy at the time. Q: OK, let’s talk about your father’s side first. What do you know about the family? BAZALA: I know quite a bit because my father was very interested in his own genealogy, and I inherited most of his papers. He also wrote an autobiography. He was born in Georgetown County, South Carolina in 1911. He came from a family of rice planters that owned several plantations over the years. My father traced the family all the way back to Scotland before they migrated to South Carolina in the 18th century. The family became prominent in the 19th century when rice growing was at its peak in South Carolina. Dad grew up on a plantation called Belle Isle. When rice production declined after the Civil War, plantation owners turned to alternative ways of earning income. My grandfather, for example, hosted hunters who came from the north and paid to go duck hunting every year on the plantation, and he established a public garden for paying visitors known as Belle Isle Garden.
