The documents of the Archives of Ali Pasha of Ioannina, of the Gennadios library, concerning Central West Macedonia
Abstract
Here is published the summary of the contents of 28 unpublished documents of the Archives of Ali Pasha of Ioannina, preserved in the Gennadios library in Athens.
The study and photographing of the documents has been accomplished by the author in 1971. Initially he had decided for their publication (in appendix) in the frame of a composite historical study with the title: «The suzerainty of Ali Pasha in Central West Macedonia» as it was announced many times. Due to unforeseen incidents the study was not completed, although new relevant documents were found in other libraries and the whole effort was well ahead.
The author expresses the hope that the study will be finally published 4-5 years from now.
Those documents were selected, after a relevant report by the University professor Vassilis Panagiotopoulos, from a total of 1499 documents. He was the first to classify them etc. and they are going to be edited (1988) by him and Mr. P. D. Michailaris and published as the 37th publication of the Centre for Neohellenic Research of the National Research Foundation.
The contents of the 28 documents vary from political and military e- vents, tax subjects, to klephtes, armatoles and revolutionary movements, and give information on the situation of Central West Macedonia as well as on larger areas of the Ottoman Empire.
