  • Portable Archaeology”: Pashas from the Dalmatian Hinterland As Cultural Mediators
    Chapter 10 Connectivity, Mobility, and Mediterranean “Portable Archaeology”: Pashas from the Dalmatian Hinterland as Cultural Mediators Gülru Necipoğlu Considering the mobility of persons and stones is one way to reflect upon how movable or portable seemingly stationary archaeological sites might be. Dalmatia, here viewed as a center of gravity between East and West, was cen- tral for the global vision of Ottoman imperial ambitions, which peaked during the 16th century. Constituting a fluid “border zone” caught between the fluctu- ating boundaries of three early modern empires—Ottoman, Venetian, and Austrian Habsburg—the Dalmatian coast of today’s Croatia and its hinterland occupied a vital position in the geopolitical imagination of the sultans. The Ottoman aspiration to reunite the fragmented former territories of the Roman Empire once again brought the eastern Adriatic littoral within the orbit of a tri-continental empire, comprising the interconnected arena of the Balkans, Crimea, Anatolia, Iraq, Syria, Egypt, and North Africa. It is important to pay particular attention to how sites can “travel” through texts, drawings, prints, objects, travelogues, and oral descriptions. To that list should be added “traveling” stones (spolia) and the subjective medium of memory, with its transformative powers, as vehicles for the transmission of architectural knowledge and visual culture. I refer to the memories of travelers, merchants, architects, and ambassadors who crossed borders, as well as to Ottoman pashas originating from Dalmatia and its hinterland, with their extraordinary mobility within the promotion system of a vast eastern Mediterranean empire. To these pashas, circulating from one provincial post to another was a prerequisite for eventually rising to the highest ranks of vizier and grand vizier at the Imperial Council in the capital Istanbul, also called Ḳosṭanṭiniyye (Constantinople).

  • Sunny Sailing Holidays in Greece Ayios Stefanos Arillas Corfu
    Paxos route (1 week) Saturday Arrival Nidri Nidri is the home of Sunny Sailing. The view of the water is magnificent. The jetty lies in front of the Armonia hotel where one can make use of the many facilities that the hotel has to offer. Nidri itself has a lively village with a pleasant boulevard. Sunday Nidri - Lefkas Stad The Lefkas Marina is within walking distance of the lively center, where there are many shops and terraces. Although it is a small town, there is a lot to see and do here. There is the fortress of Agia Mavra, there are historic churches, a beautiful lagoon, beautiful squares and colorful narrow alleys. Monday Lefkas Stad - Parga Near the harbor stretches the town itself, which looks like a beautiful white village with red roofs unaffected by the course of time. The character of the town is lively and you can enjoy the restaurants and shops and the evening of the sunset between the castle and the island of Panagia. Tuesday Parga - Lakka The bay of the harbor town of Lakka on Paxos is often full of sailing boats and yachts and is bowl-shaped. The seawater in the bay has the most beautiful colors of blue and partly because of the olive trees and cypresses that grow up to the coastline, it looks like a lake. The harbor town has a small pedestrian promenade with numerous terraces and a few very good restaurants. Wednesday Lakka - Mongonisi Mongonissi on the island of Paxos is located in a protected bay where the water is shallow and the beach is on the doorstep.

Doctoral Dissertations. 1560. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations/1560 The Sale of Parga in the Nationalist Imaginary of 19th Century Italy: 1819-1858 Fabiana Viglione, PhD University of Connecticut, 2017 ABSTRACT This study examines the impact of the sale of the Greek city of Parga to the Ottoman Turks by the English government in 1819 on the cultural work of Romantic Italian intellectuals and artists. I place Parga at the intersection of cultural, political, and historical discourses, and argue that this event is a prism to chart the major leading forces, tensions, and ideas that coalesced in the formation of Italian cultural nationalism, or Risorgimento - the movement that led to the unification of the peninsula in 1861. By extending the boundaries of the Italian national movement to another national cause and, by implication, to the larger European geo-political and geo-cultural space, I also shed light on the transnational aspects of 19th century Italian nationalist culture. In this study, I refer to the different branches of philhellenism in Europe and to the solidification of a hierarchy of European civilizations, which saw Southern Europe as a region impermeable to the progress and advances of Northern modernity and thus unsuited for political freedom and economic independence.

This chapter is intended to bring you Mediterranean and the Black Seas. small pieces of those rich roots of our Greek past. The objectives of this chapter are: first, Life in Greece first appeared on the Halkidiki to enrich our consciousness with those bits of Peninsula dated to the Middle Paleolithic era information and to build an awareness of what (50.000 B.C).

The famous Minoan advanced prehistoric culture of 2800-1100 B.C. appeared in Crete.

Although a large body of knowledge has been generated, research efforts have been inconsistently allocated across geographic areas, species and topics. Significant gaps still exist, ranging from the most fundamental aspects, such as the distribution of major nesting sites and the total number of clutches laid annually in the region, to more specific topics like age at maturity, survival rates and behavioural ecology, especially for certain areas (e.g. south-eastern Mediterranean). These gaps are particularly marked for the green turtle. The recent positive trends of nest counts at some nesting sites may be the result of the cessation of past exploitation and decades of conservation measures on land, both in the form of national regulations and of con- tinued active protection of clutches.
