Aims to situate the Greek experience within the context of historical thinking about nations and nationalism in the modern world. This book spans the period from 1797, when Rigas Velestinlis published a constitution for an imaginary 'Hellenic Republic', at the cost of his life, to the establishment of the modern Olympic Games, in Athens in 1896.
