Traces the rich social, cultural, economic and political history of the Greeks from 1768 to 1913
Often referred to as the 'Long Nineteenth Century, ' this period witnessed the establishment of a Greek nation-state which had a profound impact on the Greeks of the Diaspora.
Innovatively situating the story of the Greeks into a broader Ottoman and Mediterranean context, Thomas Gallant presents the most in-depth exploration of Greek society and culture available in any language. This is a substantive and original contribution to the study of the Greek people during the Modern period.
Key features:
An interdisciplinary approach bridges history, anthropology and archaeology
Emphasises social history, including an in-depth discussion of Greek rural society and economy
Brings Greek history and Ottoman history into dialogue in a way that hasn't been done before
Includes over 70 figures - maps, illustrations, tables and line drawings - which illustrate the key aspects of Greek social life
