George Dertilis, born in Athens in 1939, died on 20 February 2023.
2023-02-22
Historein would like to express its deepest condolences for the loss of George Dertilis. He was an eminent historian, an inspired teacher, a tireless and distinguished scholar, a charming and prolific writer, and a dynamic public intellectual, whose books and research activities renewed the field of history in Greece in the last thirty years. He mainly cultivated the field of Economic History. From the 1980s onward, he directed research projects in Economic History. With his Anglo-Saxon education, along with other important scholars, he contributed to the renewal of the discipline of historiography, by embracing the latest worthwhile directions in historical research, and by fusing broader epistemological requirements.

New: Special Issue on the Greek Revolution
2022-01-09
This special issue, entitled "1821: What Made it Greek? What Made it Revolutionary", is the outcome of a renewed interest in the study of 1821 and has its own history. It is the result of a series of workshops co-organised by New York University under the auspices of the Jordan Center for Advanced Study of Russia (New York) and the Research Centre for the Humanities (Athens). These workshops brought together historians and social scientists from different universities, and different national and academic environments, to discuss how the history of 1821 could be reconceptualised. 1821 was and still is, par excellence, an example of the political uses and abuses of history. So we seek to understand the revolution in terms of its own present. We titled these workshops as “1821: What Made it Greek and Revolutionary” because we aimed to view the events as if visiting them for the first time and reconsider them beyond the teleology which so much characterises any kind of revolutionary narrative.Due to the number and the extension of the articles in this issue we decided not to include the reviews section of the journal, which will return in our next scheduled issues.
