Produktbeschreibung
This work analyzes the modern Greek enlightenment
and 19th century Greek
Nationalism, in the light of the nationalism
theories. It confronts with the process of
Modern Greek enlightenment which took place within
the lands of the Ottoman
Empire and the Greek nationalism which was the
second phase of the modern Greek
enlightenment. The work argues that the lands
where today Greeks live had been
invaded and settled by various ethnic groups. As a
result it lost its ethnic ties with the
ancient Greeks. Modern Greeks are not the
descendants of ancient Greeks as they
accept. Modern Greek national identity is a
constructed one and Greek nation which
is a mixture of different Balkan Orthodox people
such as Slavs, Albanians,
Macedonians and Bulgars. Greek Nation was built
within the Ottoman Millet system
by the help of the European Philhellenes and Greek
intellectuals. This assumption is
based on Fallmayer theory which suggests that
ancient Greeks had disappeared
completely and the modern Greeks were merely
descendants of Slavs and Albanians.
