Excerpt from Christian Greece and Living Greek It is with these moneys chiefly that the National University Of Athens, the Polytechnic School, the Observatory, the Sina Academy, the Arsakeion, orphan asylums, theological seminaries, national museum, and other public institutions were built. And while such progress was being made within the kingdom, Crete and the other islands were groaning under Turkish rule, Macedonia was overrun by Bulgarian emissaries and Roumanian agents to propagate Slav ideas, while in the other provinces of European Turkey and the eastern coast of Asia Minor thousands of Greeks were looking to Athens for protection from Turkish excesses.

Excerpt from Christian Greece and Living Greek Those who are now blaming defeated Greece for having gone to war against Turkey unprepared and without allies, "with surprising blindness and thoughtlessness" as the prime minister of one of the great powers put it, ought to take into consideration the peculiar and exceptional circumstances under which the present Greek kingdom has been laboring since its very creation in 1830. In the revolution of 1821, or rather the war of independence as the Greeks call it, not only Greece proper, but most of the islands of the Ægean Sea, Crete included, took up arms against Turkey. The revolution lasted nearly seven years, and ended with the Battle of Navarino in October, 1827, when thirty men-of-war of England, France, and Russia destroyed the Turkish and Egyptian fleets, composed of one hundred and twenty vessels, at that port.

Excerpt from The History of Greece: From Its Conquest by the Crusaders to Its Conquest by the Turks and of the Empire of Trebizond, 1204 1461 This work is an attempt to fill up a vacancy in English literature. It may, perhaps, form a useful supplementary volume to the work of Gibbon, until something more worthy to be placed beside the writings of the great historian shall replace it. The author has found it impossible to follow rigidly any fixed system in the orthography of Greek names. Our best authorities do not agree in their mode of writing them. Had a fixed rule been generally adopted, it would have been conformed to in this work. The names of the emperors of Trebizond are always written in their Greek form, as a convenient mode of distinguishing them from the Byzantine sovereigns. Other names are given in their English, Latin, or semi-Greek form, as accident may appear to render most suitable. A desire to avoid both confusion and singularity, has made etymology yield to sound in one case, and given sound a preference over etymology in another.

Excerpt from Greek Literature Life.-but the Greek books are not merely interesting as showing the methods and aims of early thinkers. They contain results, too, which have had the deepest and widest influence on the whole of modern life, in religion, in morality, in science, in politics, in litera ture. The thoughts of the great Greek thinkers have been bearing fruit in the world ever since they were first uttered. In some special sciences, the work done by the Greeks remains a basis of study to this day, as in Ethics and in Logic and in Geometry. It is in Greek historians and Greek orators that we read some of the political lessons most directly useful for our own time. Neither the history of Christian doc trine, nor the outer history of the Christian Church, can be fully understood without reference to the character and work of the Greek mind. Under the.

Excerpt from Greek Saints and Their Festivals Festivals of the Orthodox Church in Greece are remarkable for their frequency and for their unfailing popularity. By their numbers the working days of the year are so effectually diminished that the saying of Chrysostom seems to be taken with exaggerated literalness: And the whole of time is an occasion for festival to Christians on account of the excess of good gifts.1 The enthusiasm attending their celebration reveals the strong influence which they exercise on the national and social life of the country, and it is in this aspect that their real importance lies. The Church treats its festivals as occasions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Hellenism is the living culture of the Greek-speaking peoples and has a continuing history of more than 3,500 years. The Encyclopedia of Greece and the Hellenic Tradition contains approximately 900 entries devoted to people, places, periods, events, and themes, examining every aspect of that culture from the Bronze Age to the present day. The focus throughout is on the Greeks themselves, and the continuities within their own cultural tradition. Language and religion are perhaps the most obvious vehicles of continuity; but there have been many others--law, taxation, gardens, music, magic, education, shipping, and countless other elements have all played their part in maintaining this unique culture. Today, Greek arts have blossomed again; Greece has taken its place in the European Union; Greeks control a substantial proportion of the world's merchant marine; and Greek communities in the United States, Australia, and South Africa have carried the Hellenic tradition throughout the world. This is the first reference work to embrace all aspects of that tradition in every period of its existence.
