Athens

Athens

John L. Tomkinson

The monuments and sites in the centre of Athens are among the most visited and best known in the world. Yet whether it is the Olympic Stadium, the old Parliament Building, or the Acropolis itself, in 'Athens' the reader will read new stories and find a fresh perspective on the history (ancient and modern), the myths, legends, folklore and politics of one of the most fascinating cities in the world.

Travellers’ Greece: Memories of an Enchanted Land

compiled by John L. Tomkinson

More than one hundred travellers record their impressions of Greece over a period of more than three centuries, and recount their experiences in an enchanted land. The extracts show the travellers, the places they visited, and those they encountered, at their best and worst.
From many rare works now difficult of access, the compiler has extracted a great variety of writing, and a wide range of approaches to Greece, from the unashamedly romantic to the brutally cynical. Not merely a valuable repository of historical evidence, 'Travellers' Greece' is an anthology which the non-specialist can read with pleasure from cover to cover.

The Jews of Ioannina

The Jews of Ioannina

Rae Dalven

These chronicles of the various communities of Jews in Ioannina covers not merely their history but their religious customs and social life. In focusing upon the Romaniote (Greek-speaking Jews), the author throws light upon an ancient community generally neglected by the historians of the Jewish diaspora.
