Konstantinou, Approaching the Τexture… Approaching the Texture of the Greek Evangelical Hymnography Vasiliki Konstantinou Abstract: This paper explores the Greek Evangelical Hymnography, considering not only the Lutheran protestant tradition but also the way the origins of the churches influenced the hymn melodies. Moreover, it focuses on the presentation and the analysis of evangelical hymns which were mainly sung in Cappadocia. Emphasis is placed on the analysis of three hymns, the melodies of which were only passed down through oral tradition (nowadays almost forgotten), and which are presented for the first time in this paper. Since the population exchange between Greece and Turkey took place at the beginning of the 20th century, two different cultural environments started to coexist amongst the churches that settled in Greece, the Modern Greek and the Ottoman. Each one affected the language of the hymnography and its musical texture (modality, harmony and rhythm). Keywords: Greek Evangelical Hymnography; Cappadocia; Karamanli Writing.

Napoleon, who was a political prophet in the estimation of many, is said to have predicted the late attempt of Nicholas, the Russian czar, on the dominions of the sultan.

    The Story of the Life and Times of Thomas Cosmades

    Thomas Cosmades The Story of the Life and Times of Thomas Cosmades Introduction For years friends and family have been requesting me to put down at least the highlights of my life, pleasant and unpleasant. Following serious thought I concluded that doing this could be of service to people dear to me. Also my account can benefit coming generations. Many recollections in my thoughts still cheer my heart and others sadden, or make me ashamed, even after many years. If I fail to put my remembrances on paper they will die with me; otherwise they will profit those interested. I am confident of their being useful, at least to some. Innumerable people have written and published their life stories. Some have attracted favorable impressions and others the contrary. The free pen entrusted for free expression shouldn’t hesitate to record memories of some value. We are living in an age of intimidation and trepidation. People everywhere are weighing their words, writings, criticisms, drawings, etc. Prevailing conditions often dictate people’s manner of communication. Much talk is going around regarding democracy and free speech. Let’s be candid about it, democratic freedom is curtailed at every turn with the erosion of unrestricted utterance. The free person shouldn’t be intimidated by exorbitant reaction, or even violence. I firmly believe that thoughts, events and injustices should be spelled out. Therefore, I have recorded these pages. I did not conceal my failures, unwise decisions and crises in my own life. The same principle I have applied to conditions under which I lived and encountered from my childhood onwards.

    The Treatment of Religious Minorities in South-Eastern Europe: Greece and Bulgaria Comparedl

    Religion, State & Society, Vol. 30, No. 1, 2002 The Treatment of Religious Minorities in South-Eastern Europe: Greece and Bulgaria Comparedl JOHN ANDERSON For societies undergoing transition from an authoritarian to a more liberal political order, the consequences of pluralism are often hard to cope with. Under the old system political repression may have been the norm, but at least the previous regime offered some form of protection against the waves of pornography, violence and social collapse which often appear to accompany liberalisation. Such problems are even more acute for religious organisations, many of whose leaders may have played a role in bringing down the old authoritarian regime but now find themselves wondering about the democratic beast they have unleashed. In the changing political system they have to compete with new ideologies and faiths, but also with the more colourful pleasures of the flesh now available to the average citizen. Amongst the new arrivals may be an array of alternative or minority religious movements which compete with more traditional religious communities in a religious free market. Simultaneously many of the minorities already active in the country may acquire a greater public profile and becoming increasingly active as a result of political liberal­ isation. In response the national churches, often in alliance with conservative or nationalist politicians, may seek ways to privilege the national religion or restrict the rights of the minority religions so as to preserve their influence on the wider society. In this article I compare the ways in which two neighbouring countries, Greece and Bulgaria, have responded to the question of religious pluralism during a time of transition.

    THE HISTORY OF ENGLAND Volume One of Three FROM THE INVASION OF JULIUS CÆSAR TO THE END OF THE REIGN OF JAMES THE SECOND, BY DAVID HUME, ESQ. 1688 VOLUME ONE Part C. From Henry VII. to Mary HISTORY OF ENGLAND. CHAPTER XXIV. HENRY VII. 1485. The victory which the earl of Richmond gained at Bosworth was entirely decisive; being attended, as well with the total rout and dispersion of the royal army, as with the death of the king himself. Joy for this great success suddenly prompted the soldiers, in the field of battle, to bestow on their victorious general the appellation of king, which he had not hitherto assumed; and the acclamations of "Long live Henry VII.," by a natural and unpremeditated movement, resounded from all quarters. To bestow some appearance of formality on this species of military election, Sir William Stanley brought a crown of ornament, which Richard wore in battle, and which had been found among the spoils; and he put it on the head of the victor. Henry himself remained not in suspense; but immediately, without hesitation, accepted of the magnificent present which was tendered him. He was come to the crisis of his fortune; and being obliged suddenly to determine himself, amidst great difficulties which he must have frequently revolved in his mind, he chose that part which his ambition suggested to him, and to which he seemed to be invited by his present success. There were many titles on which Henry could found his right to the crown; but no one of them free from great objections, if considered with respect either to justice or to policy.
