Workshop's dates: Saturday 18 – Sunday 19, March 2023

CHS Greece announces the beginning of the applications' submission to the new workshop "Philhellenism across the Ages" that will be coordinated by Dr. Christos Aliprantis, CHS Early Career Fellow in Philhellenism 2022-23, Ruhr University, Bochum.

The workshop focuses on the diachronic impact of the phenomenon of the international sympathy towards Greeks and analyses the main thematic pillars that have rendered Philhellenism both influential in the 19th century and extremely current today. The workshop focuses on Philhellenism during the Greek War of Independence of 1821-30. However, it is not limited to the early 19th century, but also examines aspects and the endurance of the phenomenon in the following two centuries. Participants will have the opportunity to interact both with each other and the moderator but also with related primary material. As it will be carried out in the premises of the Museum of Philhellenism in Athens, the participants will have the unique opportunity to come into direct contact with a rich collection of Philhellenic exhibits (documents, works of art, costumes, etc.), some of which will be used for the needs of the workshop.

Participants will be selected by the workshop coordinator on the basis of their online application. The application deadline is on March 1st, 2023.
