SUMMARY:The Greek Revolution in the Age of Revolution
DESCRIPTION:This event is free and open to all\, but pre-registration is required. Please email us to register. \nJoin Paschalis Kitromilides\, John Hutchinson\, and Athena Leoussi to discuss Paschalis’s book\, The Greek Revolution in the Age of Revolutions (1776-1848). The event takes places on 5th February from 1800 at the Graham Wallas Room\, LSE\, and will be streamed live on Facebook and YouTube. \nAbout the book\nThis volume aims to demonstrate the significance of the Greek liberation struggle to international history\, and to highlight how it was a turning point that signalled the revival of revolution in Europe after the defeat of the French Revolution in 1815. It argues that the sacrifices of rebellious Greeks paved the way for other resistance movements in European politics\, culminating in the ‘spring of European peoples’ in 1848. Richly researched and innovative in approach\, this volume also considers the diplomatic and transnational aspects of the insurrection\, and examines hitherto unexplored dimensions of revolutionary change in the Greek world. The Greek Revolution in the Age of Revolutions (1776-1848) is published by Routledge. \nAbout the speakers\nPaschalis Kitromilides is Professor Emeritus of Political Science at the University of Athens and a member of the Academy of Athens\, where he holds the chair of the History of Political Thought.

The author of more than fifty books and two hundred and sixty articles\, his works have been published in Russian\, Romanian\, Serbian\, and Bulgarian as well as English and Greek.\n\nAthena Leoussi is Associate Professor in the Department of Languages and Cultures at the University of Reading and a Visiting Senior Fellow in the Government Department at the LSE.
