About the workshop<\/strong><\/p>\n

Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Center for Hellenic Studies in Greece is collaborating with the Philhellenism Museum in organizing the workshop titled\u00a0“The Reception of the Philhellenic Movement from 1821 until the End of the 19th Century by the Press and Literature of the Time.” CHS Greece, through its annual workshop series, aims to support Hellenic Studies and the broader field of Humanities, and to offer intergenerational, interdisciplinary, lifelong learning opportunities to the public.<\/p>\n

This workshop focuses on examining the reception of the Philhellenic movement, which developed throughout much of the 19th century not only in Europe but also in America, through the Greek press. The existence of the Greek Press even before the establishment of an independent Greek state underscores its significance and role in the initiation and progress of the Revolution. In the post-revolutionary years, the notable “expansion” of the press is a remarkable phenomenon directly linked to political and social developments.<\/p>\n

Therefore, the reception of the Philhellenic movement by the Greek press, which originated with the Greek Revolution but continued with significant peaks throughout the 19th century, is an important field of research. Its findings are expected to shed more light on the development and spread of Philhellenism.<\/p>\n

Based on the above, the workshop aims to delve deeper into the study of this highly significant Philhellenic movement through the press and literature, highlighting lesser-known aspects as revealed in newspaper pages and literary works of the time.<\/p>\n
