The Greek language arose from the protoIndoEuropean language, though roughly onethird of its words cannot be derived from various reconstructions of that tongue. A number of alphabets and syllabaries had been used to render Greek, but surviving Greek literature was written in a Phoenicianderived alphabet that arose primarily in Greek Ionia and was fully adopted by Athens by the fifth century BC.

Greek Mathematics $108.33 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Greek mathematics, as that term is used in this article, is the mathematics written in Greek, developed from the 6th century BC to the 5th century AD around the Eastern shores of the Mediterranean. The word mathematics itself derives from the ancient Greek (mathema), meaning subject of instruction . The study of mathematics for its own sake and the use of generalized mathematical theories and proofs is the key difference between Greek mathematics and those of preceding civilizations.

Modern Greek $101.96 Modern Greek refers to the varieties of Greek spoken in the modern era. The beginning of the modern period of the language is often symbolically assigned to the fall of the Byzantine Empire in 1453, even though that date marks no clear linguistic boundary and many characteristic modern features of the language had been present centuries earlier from the 3rd c. BC to 10th AD. 5] During much of this time, the language existed in a situation of diglossia, with regional spoken dialects existing side by side with learned, archaic written forms. Most notably, during much of the 19th and 20th centuries, it was known in the competing varieties of popular Demotic and learned Katharevousa. Today, Standard Modern Greek, based on Demotic, is the official language of both Greece and Cyprus. Greek is spoken today by approximately 1215 million people, mainly in Greece and Cyprus, but also by minority and immigrant communities in many other countries.

Pontic Greek $68.51 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Pontic Greek is a form of the Greek language originally spoken in the Pontus area on the southern shores of the Black Sea, and today mainly in Greece. Its speakers are referred to as Pontic Greeks or Pontian Greeks. Pontics linguistic lineage stems from Ionic Greek via Koine and Byzantine Greek and contains influences from Turkish and to a lesser extent, Persian and various Caucasian languages. Though Pontic was originally spoken on the southern shores of the Black Sea, substantial numbers migrated into the northern and eastern shores (into the Russian Empire of the 18th and 19th century); Pontic is still spoken by large numbers of people in Ukraine, Russia (around Stavropol), and Georgia, and the language enjoyed some use as a literary medium in the 1930s, including a school grammar (Topkhara 1998).

Greek Chorus $81.25 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A Greek chorus (Greek:, khoros) is an homogenous, nonindividualised group of performers in the plays of classical Greece, who comment with a collective voice on the dramatic action. It numbers twelve or fifteen members in tragedies and twentyfour members in comedies, and performs using several techniques, including singing, dancing, narrating, and acting. In Aeschylus Agamemnon, the chorus comprises the elderly men of Argos, whereas in Euripides The Bacchae, they are a group of eastern bacchants, and in Sophocles Electra, the chorus is made up of the women of Argos. Plays of the ancient Greek theatre always included a chorus that offered a variety of background and summary information to help the audience follow the performance. The Greek chorus comments on themes, andas August Wilhelm Schlegel proposed in the early 19th century to subsequent controversyshows how an ideal audience might react to the drama.

Greek Wine $74.88 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Greece is one of the oldest wineproducing regions in the world. The earliest evidence of Greek wine has been dated to 6,500 years ago where wine was produced on a household or communal basis. In ancient times, as trade in wine became extensive, it was transported from end to end of the Mediterranean; Greek wine had especially high prestige in Italy under the Roman Empire. In the medieval period, wines exported from Crete, Monemvasia and other Greek ports fetched high prices in northern Europe. In 1937, a Wine Institute was established by the Ministry of Agriculture. During the 1960s, retsina suddenly became the national beverage. With rapidly growing tourism, retsina became associated worldwide with Greece and Greek wine. Greeces first Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard was planted in 1963. In 1971 and 1972, legislation established appellation laws.

Greek Gardens $187.99 A distinction is made between Greek gardens, made in ancient Greece, and Hellenistic gardens, made under the influence of Greek culture in late classical times. Little is known about either. Before the coming of protoGreeks into the Aegean, Minoan culture represented gardens, in the form of subtly tamed wildseeming landscapes, shown in frescoes, notably in a stylised floral sacred landscape with some Egyptianising features represented in fragments of a Middle Minoan fresco at Amnisos, northeast of Knossos. In the east wing of the palace at Phaistos, Maria Shaw believes, fissures and tooltrimmed holes may once have been planted. In the postMinoan world, Mycenaean art concentrates on human interactions, where the natural world takes a lessened role, and following the collapse of Mycenaean palaceculture and the loss of the literacy connected with it, pleasure gardens are unlikely to have been a feature of the Greek Dark Age.

Greek Dances $70.1 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Greek dance is a very old tradition, being referred to by ancient authors such as Plato, Aristotle, Plutarch and Lucian. There are different styles and interpretations from all of the islands and surrounding mainland areas. Each region formed its own choreography and style to fit in with their own ways. For example, island dances have more of a watery flow to them, while Pontic dancing closer to Black Sea, is very sharp. There are over 4000 traditional dances that come from all regions of Greece. There are also Pan Hellenic dances, which have been adopted throughout the Greek world. These include the tsamiko, syrtos, and kalamatianos. Traditional Greek dancing has a primarily social function. It brings the community together at key points of the year, such as Easter, the grape harvest or patronal festivals; and at key points in the lives of individuals and families, such as weddings.

Greek Art $14.29 The 18th centurys Neoclassicist movement, with its white marble sculptures inspired by the art of the ancient world, has helped Greek art to remain vivid in our memories even today. But the reality of ancient art was entirely different, as surfaces were in fact much more brut. As author Michael Siebler points out, recent findings have revealed that the seemingly perfect bodies of statues and sculptures were very often painted in flamboyant colors and ornaments. Thus ancient Greek art combined a high level of classical identity with an equal amount of sensuality. Despite being viewed in a new light, the beauty of the works of art persists.
