  • 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.

  • The Nation Between Utopia and Art: Canonizing Dionysios Solomos As The
    15 The nation between utopia and art: canonizing Dionysios Solomos as the ‘national poet’ of Greece Vassiliki Dimoula Perhaps the most controversial element in the work of Dionysios Solomos, the ‘national poet’ of Greece, is his nationalism. My aim in what follows will be to discuss a contrastive relationship between the utopian element in Solomos’s national poetry and his canonization as the ‘national poet’ of Greece. The tension between Solomos’s work and its reception has recently been discussed by Giorgos Veloudis from the point of view of the appropriation of Solomos for the needs of Greek ‘national ideology’ (Veloudis 2004). By contrast, my own focus here will be on the ideologization of the aesthetic dimension of Solomos’s work in the course of his canonization as the leading figure of Greek national literature. Although I will not discuss the poet’s reception in any detail, my points of reference will be Iakovos Polylas and Kostis Palamas. The social‑imaginary institution of the nation is by definition ideological; it constitutes ‘a social reality whose very existence implies the non‑knowledge of its participants as to its essence’ (Žižek 1995, 2, cited in Gourgouris 1996, 26). In order to justify my discussion of it as a ‘utopia’ in the poetic work of Solomos, I will refer to the transcendental poetics of his time, Dimoula as well as to modern theorizations of utopia, with particular emphasis on the notion of ‘negative utopianism’ suggested by Theodor Adorno.1 Veloudis, in his recent book (2004), provides a detailed account of Solomos’s appropriation by Greek ‘national ideology’, which was based on a politically motivated distortion of his work.2 The ‘nationalization’ of Solomos in the course of his multifaceted reception obscured the initial, historically very specific grounds of his canonization as ‘the national poet’ of Greece by the Heptanesians.

Albani Abstract: This article addresses attitudes towards the medieval past of Athens from modern to postmodern times. Athens, a symbol of classical civilisation, had become a provincial Byzantine centre. From the proclamation of Athens in 1833 as the capital of the modern Greek state to about 1880, archaeological research in Athens focused on classical antiquities at the expense of the preservation of monuments of the Middle Ages, which was regarded as a period of decline. The historical and artistic value ofA thenian medieval monuments has been acknowledged since the late nineteenth century. The international progress of Byzantine studies, the national narrative on the continuity of Greek history, the political concept of the Megali Idea (“Great Idea”), and contemporary state policies based on “diachrony and synergy” contributed to this significant ideological shift.A thens is, however, still renowned and admired worldwide

The study focuses on ruins of urban artefacts that become a memorial representation of the past civilisation, more importantly, be beneficial to those associated with the process. To better understanding, since the Acropolis is viewed as a symbol of the classical spirit and civilisation of Western culture with the great architectural aesthetic of Ancient Greek, three Athenian urban projects are taken as a case study, namely, ‘the new Athens’ master plan’ of the 19th century, ‘landscaping around Acropolis’ by Dimitris Pikionis of the 1960s, and the current proposal ‘Rethink Athens’. By collecting and analysing related maps, images and scholarly writings, the paper formulates an argument that traces of Ancient Greek have been evident in the urban development processes of Athens in the modern era. From the construction of national image in the early 19th century, the conservation through aesthetic creativity during the mid-20th century, to the commercialisation of urban space in the present time, the exploration of three projects serves as an explanation of the multiple roles of the monument in different cir- cumstances. This examination reveals that orders and forms of urban fabric are substantially involved political forces, individual attitude, and economic condition.

  • “Heroes” in Neo-Hellenic Art (19Th – 20Th Centuries) the New National Models and Their Development Panagiota Papanikolaou International Hellenic University
    Volume 2, Issue 5, May 2015, PP 249-256 ISSN 2349-0373 (Print) & ISSN 2349-0381 (Online) www.arcjournals.org International Journal of Humanities Social Sciences and Education (IJHSSE) “Heroes” in Neo-Hellenic Art (19th – 20th Centuries) the New National Models and their Development Panagiota Papanikolaou International Hellenic University “Pity the country that needs heroes.” Bertolt Brecht Abstract The outbreak of the Greek Revolution in 1821 acted as a catalyst for the country and put in place the conditions for the occurrence of many new phenomena, such as the emergence of art, for example, which was influenced by Western mannerisms. This has been considered absolutely normal, because this is when the actual conditions for the development of art were met. The social, legal, moral and political conditions were completely overhauled and this enabled citizens to express themselves freely. (1) For Greeks, the Greek Revolution has been the great historical event out of which the new Greek state emerged. However, to achieve this, sacrifices and struggles have been necessary, which resulted in certain people standing out for their achievements, bringing back to the people’s memory the ancient myths about semi-gods and heroes as well as the saints of the Christian religion. The heroes and heroines of the new Hellenism leapt out of the Greek Revolution, lauded by poets and represented by artists. In general, there are many categories of “heroes”, as there are many definitions thereof. According to dictionaries, a “hero” is someone “who commits a valiant act, often to the point of sacrificing themselves”, a person who achieves something particularly difficult and who is admired by others.
