  • The Greek Enlightenment and the Changing Cultural Status of Women
    SOPHIA DENISSI The Greek Enlightenment and the Changing Cultural Status of Women In 1856 Andreas Laskaratos, one of the most liberal authors of his time, writes: There is no doubt that we took a giant step in allowing our women learning. This step reveals that a revolution took place in the spirit; a revolution which has taken our minds away from the road of backwardness and has led them to the road of progress. Though this transmission has not received any attention yet, it constitutes one of these events that will leave its trace in the history of the human spirit.1 Laskaratos is quite correct in talking about a revolution since the decision to accept women's education at the end of the eighteenth and beginning of the nineteenth centuries was indeed a revolutionary act if we consider the state of Greek women who had been living in absolute ignorance and seclusion that prevailed throughout the years of the Ottoman occupation. What caused this revolution? What made Greek men, or rather a progressive minority at first, still subjects of the Ottoman Empire concede the right to education and even to a public voice for women? The answer will be revealed to us by taking a close look at the first educated Greek women who managed to break the traditional silence imposed upon their sex by patriarchal culture and make their presence felt in the male world. We can distinguish two main groups among the first educated Greek women; those coming from the aristocratic circle of the Phanariots and those coming from the circle of progressive men of letters.

    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.

  • Obverse Reverse
    obverse reverse 84 A Bronze Coin from Eleusis in the Kelsey Museum Eleusis, Greece, second half of the fourth century BCE Coin Bronze with dark greenish and brown patina, Diam. 1 cm; Thickness 0.2 cm; Weight 3.32 g Gift from the family of Dr. Abram Richards (after 1884), Kelsey Museum 26837 A group of 1,205 ancient coins from the collection of Dr. Abram Richards (1822–1884) was donated to the Univer- sity of Michigan in 1884 (typescript catalogue 1897); 856 of them eventually became part of the Kelsey Museum collection (typescript catalogue 1974).1 This essay focuses on a single coin from Eleusis from that collection. One side of the coin depicts a male seated on a winged car drawn by two serpents; in his right hand he holds two ears of grain. The other side shows a pig standing on some thin lines, most likely a bundle of twigs, to judge from better preserved parallels. Above the pig, barely legible, can be read Λ, Υ, Σ—part of ΕΛΕΥΣ (Eleusis). Below the bundle of twigs is a bull’s head. What is the meaning behind these images, and what were such coins used for? Eleusis, some 21 kilometers west of Athens and close to the sea, is now mainly known for the remains of a major sanctuary of Demeter and Kore. The sanctuary was excavated continuously between 1882 and the 1950s. On the basis of unpublished material from these excavations, Michael Cosmo- poulos (2003) argues that the earliest ritual activities at the site can be attested as early as the Late Bronze Age.

  • By Konstantinou, Evangelos Precipitated Primarily by the Study
    by Konstantinou, Evangelos Precipitated primarily by the study of ancient Greece, a growing enthusiasm for Greece emerged in Europe from the 18th century. This enthusiasm manifested itself in literature and art in the movements referred to as classicism and neoclassicism. The founda- tions of contemporary culture were identified in the culture of Greek antiquity and there was an attempt to learn more about and even revive the latter. These efforts manifested themselves in the themes, motifs and forms employed in literature and art. How- ever, European philhellenism also had an effect in the political sphere. Numerous societies were founded to support the cause of Greek independence during the Greek War of Independence, and volunteers went to Greece to join the fight against the Ottoman Empire. Conversely, the emergence of the Enlightenment in Greece was due at least in part to the Greek students who studied at European universities and brought Enlightenment ideas with them back to Greece.

Appendix 1. Sources 2. Bibliography 3. Notes Indices Citation The neo-humanism of the 18th and 19th centuries contributed considerably to the emergence of a philhellenic1 climate in Europe. This new movement was founded by Johann Joachim Winckelmann (1717–1768) (ᇄ Media Link #ab), who identified aesthetic ideals and ethical norms in Greek art, and whose work Geschichte der Kunst des Altertums (1764) (ᇄ Media Link #ac) (History of the Art of Antiquity) made ancient Greece the point of departure for an aestheticizing art history and cultural history.

  • Megara's Harbours
    Chapter 4 KLAUS FREITAG – Rheinisch-Westfälische Technische Hochschule, Aachen [email protected] With and Without You: Megara’s Harbours The main question that will be addressed in this article is whether and how the harbour towns of the Megarid constituted local places in their own right. Exploring the entangled history of the polis Megara and its ports, this paper also points to the complexities behind scholarly approximations to the local horizon of an ancient Greek city-state. Population Figures and Territory Sizes The estimated population of Megara in the fifth century was c. 40,000. 1 In some calculations this figure includes a high number of slaves, c. 15,000 (cf. Plut. Demetr. 9).2 In the Hellenistic period, the number appears to have been significantly smaller. We note that, while 3,000 Megarian hoplites had fought at Plataia in 479 BCE, in 279 BCE, Megara only sent 400 hoplites to Thermopylai to face the Galatian Invasion. 3 This reduction might have been due, in part, to the secession of Pagai and Aigosthena. The epigraphic evidence from Aigosthena, discussed above, informs the estimation of population figures there, at least in the third century BCE. According to Beloch, the 1 Legon 1981: 23, based on estimations of agricultural capacities. 2 Legon 2005: 463. 3 Paus. 10.20.4; cf. Legon 1981: 301, who doubts that this was the full contingent.

  • The Revival of the Greek Ideal and Philhellenism. a Perambulation
    Loukia Droulia Institute for Neohellenic Research/NHRF The Revival of the Greek Ideal and Philhellenism. A Perambulation A frequent phenomenon in the history of languages, loans and “counter-loans” in the use of terms are of interest because they attest cultural contact and the influence that one culture may exert on another, whether these are cases of voluntary preference due to admiration and acknowledgement of superiority, or the result of conquest and long- term coexistence. Whatever the case, there are instances in which this phenomenon creates problems, since language, as a living organism, is not static: it receives, rejects, varies the charge of its terms, and so on. These familiar ascertainments come increasingly and ever more persistently to mind when we observe the need that modern Western – and not only – languages had and have to draw upon Graeco-Roman Antiquity, a fact accepted over the centuries. As far as Latin is concerned, after the formation of the national languages in Europe this fact does not seem to have created negative problems. This does not apply, however, to the transformed, national Greek language, whose users are sometimes nonplussed when they come across in other European languages Greek words serving – as neologisms – their new needs, sometimes obliging the Greeks to construct new derivatives in order to render the meaning of a term which had already been established in the Modern Greek linguistic instrument. The thoughts expressed here are prompted by the controversial term “philhellenism”, a term that is considered to have been born in the nineteenth century, the century of –isms, and which was ascribed to a specific but complex movement which we could say has not yet found its final definition; perhaps because the term “philhellenism” is used today, most probably for reasons of facility-usage, in a widened sense that in some cases can be considered even as an anachronism.

Extraordinary Episodes of Ancient Money By Francis Louis Kailey ********* Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Honors in the Department of Classics and the Department of Economics UNION COLLEGE June 2018 ABSTRACT KAILEY, FRANCIS LOUIS: Extraordinary Episodes of Ancient Money. Department of Classics and Department of Economics, June 2018. ADVISORS: Lewis Davis and Hans-Friedrich Mueller The spread of coins, which occurred throughout the archaic and classical periods of Greece, was a foundational advancement toward forms of the modern economy. Modern theory has sought to explain the invention of coins with a variety of narratives. Generally, these narratives fall into two broad categories: market-driven monetization or state-driven monetization. On the one hand, some theory argues that coins developed from reducing private transaction costs. On the other hand, some theorists argue that the state benefitted from reductions in administrative costs from the use of coins and therefore undertook the cost of minting them.
