On 20 May, at 7:00pm as part of the Greek History and Culture Seminars offered by the Greek Community of Melbourne, Dr Leonidas Moiras will give a lecture entitled Ottoman Perceptions of the Greek Revolution.
The Greek Centre will host Dr Moiras who is currently teaching History of the Ottoman Empire (15th – 18th cent.) and Ottoman Paleography at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens.
The outburst of the Greek Revolution consisted a major challenge for the Ottomans, since they had to suppress a “millet-wide sedition” of their subjects, who were claiming independence. The sultan, the central state elite and the intelligentsia tried to identify the reasons that triggered the “insurrection” of their subjects.
