I am interested in Medieval Greek, and I really appreciate your website. In no way am I a professional, just someone with an interest. Thanks for your website.

Comment on καθαρεύουσα vs δημοτική. An audio-visual example by Aggelos

That is not an “extreme example” as you put it. My father and uncles still speak that way as do most educated people of their generation. The movie is called “Ο Ηλίας του 16ου” and was not filmed in 1947 but in 1959.

Comment on καθαρεύουσα vs δημοτική. An audio-visual example by John Kountouris

This is a great piece. My dad's generation (60-70 yrs old) I've noticed still uses this form of Modern Greek that contains more Kathareuossa than the spoken language today.

Comment on About me by John Kountouris

Notis,

I just discovered you site and it's fantastic. The reason I stumbles across it is because I as a Greek/Greek-American (born in the US) have a fervent desire for my Hellenic heritage to keep it, preserve it and teach it to all those who love Hellenism. I have been studying, researching and discovering the riches of the Greek language, from it's proto forms to the present day, for many years. I also have been studying the history of Greece for a long time, along with modern history and all its political, social and cultural developments. I have visited Hellas many times and have become a subject of it too. I am also deeply involved with the Faith, too, studying the history of the Church from day one till now.

I would like to apply my knowledge of Greek and Greece--and its extensive--to the academic setting, but I was wondering if you could help me out. I know so much and I feel like it's time to start applying this knowledge. Many have told me that I should become a professor in these fields and I feel this is definitely a calling.

What I need is to find a good program where I can start on a good program to obtain a Masters in either Modern, Ancient, Byzantine, or all of the above, Greek. Also, I would like to include history as well. I have researched before on the net for a good school, but I am confused and the search is hard.

Can you recommend any programs out there in these fields? I actually have studied intensively the subjects you specialize in, especially the Diglossia. All of this work on my own because this is my life's passion.

I would really appreciate any advice!
