RECENTLY DISCOVERED WRITER Athina Malapani Teacher of Classical & Modern Greek Philology, PhD student, MA in Classics National & Kapodistrian University of Athens 26 Mesogeion, Korydallos, 18 121 Athens, Greece E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] STRACT he aim of this article is to present a Greek writer, Penelope Delta. This writer has re­ Tcently come up in the field of the studies of the Greek literature and, although there are neither many translations of her works in foreign languages nor many theses or disser­ tations, she was chosen for the great interest for her works. Her books have been read by many generations, so she is considered a classical writer of Modern Greek Literature. The way she uses the Greek language, the unique characters of her heroes that make any child or adolescent identified with them, the understood organization of her material are only a few of the main characteristics and advantages of her texts. It is also of high importance the fact that her books can be read by adults, as they can provide human values, such as love, hope, enjoyment of life, the educational significance of playing, the innocence of the infancy, the adventurous adolescence, even the unemployment, the value of work and justice. Thus, the educative importance of her texts was the main reason for writing this article. As for the structure of the article, at first, it presents a brief biography of the writer.

  • IX. Nationale Ansprüche, Konflikte Und Entwicklungen in Makedonien
    IX. Nationale Ansprüche, Konflikte und Entwicklungen in !akedonien, 1870–1912 Vasilis K. Gounaris 1. Vom bulgarischen Exarchat bis zur bulgarischen Autonomie Kraft des ersten Artikels des Firmans des Sultans vom 27. Februar (nach dem alten Kalender) 1870 wurde ohne Wissen des Patriarchats das bulgarische Exarchat gegründet. Von den 13 Kirchenprovinzen, die in seine Verantwortung übergingen, könnte man nur die Metropolis von Velesa rein formell als makedonisch bezeichnen. Doch gemäß dem zehnten Artikel des Firmans konnten auch andere Metropoleis dem Exarchat beitreten, wenn dies mindestens zwei Drittel ihrer Gemeindemitglieder wünschten. Dieser Firman gilt als die Geburtsurkunde der Makedonischen Frage, was jedoch nicht zutrifft. Die Voraussetzungen für die Entstehung feindlicher Parteien und die Nationalisierung dieser Gegensätze waren Produkt der poli- tischen, sozialen und wirtschaftlichen Umschichtungen, die der Erlass Hatt-i Humayun (Februar 1856) mit sich gebracht hatte. Dieser Erlass hatte zu Veränderungen des Grund- besitzsystems zu Gunsten der Christen geführt und die çifliks offiziell vererblich gemacht. Er hatte auch die Voraussetzungen für öffentliche Arbeiten und für eine Änderung des Steuer- und des Kreditsystems geschaffen. Und schließlich war, im Rahmen der Abfassung von Rechtskodizes, vom Patriarchat die Abfassung allgemeiner Verordnungen für die Verwaltung der Orthodoxen unter Mitwirkung von Laien verlangt worden. Die Fertigstellung und die Anwendung der Verordnungen führte nacheinander – schon in den Sechzigerjahren

  • Extending Greece to the New Territories: a British View
    EXTENDING GREECE TO THE NEW TERRITORIES: A BRITISH VIEW by Sir Michael Llewellyn-Smith Lecture presented on November 5, 2012 at the inauguration of the periodic exhibition at the Mu- seum for the Macedonian Struggle in Thessaloniki entitled “The British Presence in Thessaloniki and the Macedonian Hinterland” It is an honour to be invited to give this talk at so significant and auspicious a time, one hun- dred years since the liberation of Thessaloniki and its Greek population. For it was almost exactly one hundred years ago, on 28 October 1912, that Crown Prince Constantine as Com- mander in Chief of the Greek army, having taken the surrender of the city by the Ottoman governor, entered into Thessaloniki on his horse and the Greek army occupied the city. That was the most crucial event for the future of Greece of the 1st Balkan War, a moment of high emotion for the liberating troops, and that is the beginning of my story of the extension of Greece to the new territories, mainly in Macedonia, but also the Aegean islands, Epirus, and even Crete – and later Western Thrace as well. Three years later the city and surrounding countryside was turned into a fortified camp following the landing of British and French troops in October 1915. Let me give you a British view of the situation then. It comes from a distant cousin of mine, Vivian Ross Crawford, who served here in Salonika as a VAD, a nurse belonging to the Volun- tary Aid Detachment. She was quartered somewhere outside the city, and here is what she wrote in her diary: “Today, Nov 12th, I had my first half day.

  • Eleutherios Venizelos and the Balkan Wars*
    ELEUTHERIOS VENIZELOS AND THE BALKAN WARS* I did not have the good foituneto know Eleutherios Venizelos personally. I was only once privileged to see him, about 1930, when I heard him speak in the Town Hall at Rethymnon, my native town. I cannot tell you what he said. I was barely ten years old at the time, and politics were beyond my grasp. But I still remember the very real contact, spontaneous and unforced, between the speaker and his listeners, and fhe distinctive atmosphere which prevailed, an atmosphere which would have allowed the speaker to go even counter to the wishes of his audience. The charm which the words, even the mere presence, of Eleutherios Ve­ nizelos exerted on those around him is A fact so well known as to be beyond dispute. You may say that in attempting to add my own humble testimony I am simply stating the obvious. You must forgive me. I value this personal re­ collection; it is my sole visual and direct link with the national leader of mo­ dern Greece. I read later that even Venizelos’s opponents recognised and feared his compelling charm, about which George Streit remarked : “When the two of us are alone and we disagree, Venizelos never convinces me! If there are three of us, I begin to waver. The moment he addresses several people, at Cabinet meetings for instance, it often happens that I am carried away too, along with the others!”*1 George Streit’s assertion that Venizelos needed the presence of A third person to convince his interlocutor is not correct.

  • 55 Savaşta Ve Barişta Bir Yunan Gemisi
    ANKARAD / AJARS ANKARA ANADOLU VE RUMELİ ARAŞTIRMALARI DERGİSİ ANKARA’S JOURNAL OF ANATOLIA AND RUMELIA STUDIES ANKARAD, 2021; 2(3): 55-88 [email protected] e-ISSN: 2717-9052 DOI: SAVAŞTA VE BARIŞTA BİR YUNAN GEMİSİ: AVEROF-YUNAN KAYNAKLARI ÜZERİNDEN BİR ANALİZ Maria VASİLİKİOTOU (Meryem BATAN)* Öz: Balkan savaşlarının efsane gemisi olarak tarihe geçen “Averof”, Doğu Ege adalarının kurtuluş operasyonlarına katılmış ve bu operosyanlarda üstün hızını kullanarak “Elli” (3 Aralık 1912) ve “Limni” (5 Ocak 1913) deniz savaşlarında Osmanlı filosuna karşı önemli faaliyetlerde bulunmuştur. Toplarının maksimum menzilinin Yunan filosunun üzerinde olması ve otonom hareketlerde bulunması, onu düşman filosuna karşı üstün kılmıştır. "Averof" Ekim 1918'de İstanbul’da demir atmış ve Yunanistan’ın I. Dünya Savaşı'nın muzaffer güçlerinden birisi olması sebebiyle Sultan'ın sarayının karşısında Yunan bayrağını dalgalandırmıştır. Küçük Asya’da Yunan cephesinin 1922 yazında çöküşüyle birlikte, birliklerin taşınmasına ve Yunan unsurlarının nakliyesine yardımcı olmak için tekrar İzmir kıyılarına demirlemiştir. Kısa bir süre sonra Fransa'da bir bakım görmüş ve 1928'de tekrar faaliyete geçmiştir. Savaşlar arası dönem, 55 Yunanistan’da sonradan yaşanacak iç gelişmeler açısından ölümcül sonuçlar doğurmuştur. En üzücü olanı, 1 Mart 1935'teki Venezelos yanlısı siyasi hareketlerde isyancılar tarafından kullanılmasıydı. İkinci Dünya Savaşı'nda, eski olmasına rağmen, Yunan filosunun amiral gemisi olarak kullanılmıştır. Nisan 1941'deki Alman işgalinden sonra, düşmana teslim edilmemek için üzerinde bomba patlatılarak batırılmak istenmiş, ancak mürettebat gemiyi hızla terk etmiştir. "Şanslı gemi" olarak adlandırılan “Averof”, sonunda İskenderiye'ye güvenli bir şekilde gelmiş ve II.Dünya Savaşı’nın geri kalan dönemi için Hint Okyanusu'ndaki savaş gemisi filolarına katılmıştır. Savaş dışındaki barışçıl olan son iki görevi George Papandreou'nun Kurtuluş hükümetinin Pire'ye nakli (17 Ekim 1944) ve Oniki Ada'nın Yunanistan'a ilhakı mesajını Rodos'a (15 Mayıs 1945) götürmekti.

New evidence shows that Julio Palencia was likely influenced by his Greek spouse, Zoe Dragoumis, to issue last-minute passports, pull 150 off trains – and adopt two Jewish children A photo from the collection of Julio Palencia and Zoe Dragoumis, who were stationed in eight different places around the world including Costa Rica, China, Morocco, South Africa, Turkey and Bulgaria between 1914-1943.

As we walked through the mammoth study hall, Daleziou pointed out several historians leafing through documents written by members of this influential family.
