Scientific Study from the year 2014 in the subject History - Miscellaneous, language: English, abstract: Eleutherios Venizelos (1864-1936) is an emblematic figure in the History of Modern Greece, for he is regarded as the champion of parliamentary democracy and of Greek irredentism - in short, a great statesman. Even the 1922 Greek Catastrophe in Asia Minor is ascribed to his political foes, who, were accordingly executed in November 1922. That is why it is a difficult and dangerous task to sort out the truth from the relevant myth. No amazement is to be expressed by that. In fact, whenever politics and History are intermixed, History suffers at the hands of politics and not politics at the hands of History. Consequently, discovering the truth implies reconsideration of History and perhaps coping with the Future on a basis quite different from the one hitherto. Still, voluntarily or not, this is the very mission of this book.

Dimitris Michalopoulos was born in Athens, in 1952. After graduating from the Italian School of Athens (1970) and from the History and Archaeological Department of the University of Athens (1974), he obtained his Ph.D. in 1978, in Paris, at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales. From 1982 to 1994 he taught Diplomatic History and Balkan Issues at the Law School of the University of Salonica (first as a lecturer and afterwards as an assistant professor); during the years 1989 - 1997 he taught Naval and European History at the Naval War College of Greece; and during the years 1990-2000 he was the director of the Museum of the City of Athens. Now he is director to the "Historical Institute for Studies on Eleutherios Veniselos and his Era".
