Top Documentary Films: The Bizarre World of Ancient Greece

Duration: 58:20
Updated: 06 Oct 2014

Top Documentary Films: The Bizarre World of Ancient Greece The Greek civilization is considered by historians as the first one in the history of mankind. A study of their archeological remains confirms that the ancient Greeks were a highly developed community. Their lifestyle and inventions indicate a high sense of order and aesthetics. The ancient Greeks built houses along the shores of the land. They were dependent on the Aegean seas for their food supplies and other trade. Traveling brought them in contact with other cultures. They gained exposure to various agricultural methods and different types of metal work. Different communities arose from the ancient Greece civilization. Some of them were the Aegean, Achaeans and the Pelasgians. Crete was the center of the Aegean civilization and was the dominant community in 2500 BC. The Achaeans made Mycenae their capital. A volcano caused the destruction of the Aegean community around 1400bc. The Mycenaeans absorbed the culture of the Aegean community. In course of time, Greek settlements were transformed into city-states or poleis and each city-state was ruled by a king. The government was usually unstable due to the tyranny of the aristocrats. Democracy was hardly ever practiced. The ancient Greeks were very keen on sports. The great athletic contest called the Olympic games began in 776 BC, which marked the beginning of the rise of the Greek civilization. At that point of time, Greek ideas were greatly influenced by many different foreign cultures. Artists were focusing on recreating human figures of mythology. The civilization saw its zenith around 500 BC. Excellence was seen in the fields of philosophy, art and literature. Wars with other civilizations began in 490 BC and the superior Greek armies overran their opponents to establish their supremacy. The ancient age of Greek civilization saw the birth of great philosophers like Pluto, Socrates, and the great emperor, Alexander. The ancient Greeks were pagan. They prayed to the various elements of nature. They believed that favorable climate and good crops occurred when the gods were pleased. When things turned bad, they attributed it to the wrath of the gods. They performed sacrifices to appease the enraged gods. Ancient Greeks were essentially simple-minded folks who left behind a beautiful legacy of art, philosophy and literature. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Greece http://www.ancientgreece.com/s/Main_Page/ http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/primaryhistory/ancient_greeks/ http://www.ancientgreece.co.uk/ http://www.ancient-greece.org/

Greek Mythology God and Goddesses Documentary

Duration: 88:59
Updated: 07 Dec 2013

Greek Mythology is the body of myths and teachings that belong to the ancient Greeks, concerning their gods and heroes, the nature of the world, and the origins and significance of their own cult and ritual practices. It was a part of the religion in ancient Greece and is part of religion in modern Greece and around the world, known as Hellenismos. Modern scholars refer to and study the myths in an attempt to throw light on the religious and political institutions of Ancient Greece and its civilization, and to gain understanding of the nature of myth-making itself.[1] Greek mythology is explicitly embodied in a large collection of narratives, and implicitly in Greek representational arts, such as vase-paintings and votive gifts. Greek myth attempts to explain the origins of the world, and details the lives and adventures of a wide variety of gods, goddesses, heroes, heroines, and mythological creatures. These accounts initially were disseminated in an oral-poetic tradition; today the Greek myths are known primarily from Greek literature. The oldest known Greek literary sources, Homer's epic poems Iliad and Odyssey, focus on events surrounding the Trojan War. Two poems by Homer's near contemporary Hesiod, the Theogony and the Works and Days, contain accounts of the genesis of the world, the succession of divine rulers, the succession of human ages, the origin of human woes, and the origin of sacrificial practices. Myths are also preserved in the Homeric Hymns, in fragments of epic poems of the Epic Cycle, in lyric poems, in the works of the tragedians of the fifth century BC, in writings of scholars and poets of the Hellenistic Age, and in texts from the time of the Roman Empire by writers such as Plutarch and Pausanias. Archaeological findings provide a principal source of detail about Greek mythology, with gods and heroes featured prominently in the decoration of many artifacts. Geometric designs on pottery of the eighth century BC depict scenes from the Trojan cycle as well as the adventures of Heracles. In the succeeding Archaic, Classical, and Hellenistic periods, Homeric and various other mythological scenes appear, supplementing the existing literary evidence.[2] Greek mythology has had an extensive influence on the culture, arts, and literature of Western civilization and remains part of Western heritage and language. Poets and artists from ancient times to the present have derived inspiration from Greek mythology and have discovered contemporary significance and relevance in the themes.

Greece Travel Video Guide

Travel video about destination Greece. Although Greece is the home of ancient gods, birthplace of European civilisation and a country of great warriors and philosophers it is also a country of many islands with tiny villages and white houses, a deep blue sea and almost constant sunshine.Athens is a lively city set in historic surroundings. Unique among all other Greek temples is the Acropolis whose imposing appearance and artistic decoration signified the great influence and power of ancient Athens. Six female figures, the Karyatides, support the southern hall of the Ionic Temple of Erechtheion that stands on sacred ground close to the main temple. The imposing Mitrópolis is the main Greek Orthodox cathedral in Athens. A total of four architects designed this cathedral whose walls comprise the remains of no less than seventy former sacred buildings. The Cyclades Islands are situated in the middle of the Southern Aegean that like a magic circle flows around its former centre, the sacred island of Delos, Mykonos. For centuries this picturesque former pirate village in the middle of Cyclades group of islands has been the meeting place for artists, V.I.P.’s and the international glitterati. The Cyclades are also known as The Pearls Of Greece and it seems as though the gods have scattered a handful of beautiful pearls into the deep blue Aegean Sea. In ancient times they were also known as The Islands Of Light because Apollo, the God of Light and Learning, was born here and also worshipped on the islands. Santorini is the most southerly of the Cyclades Islands and the legendary location of the mythical lost island of Atlantis and also a breathtaking island paradise of rock, lava, sea and light.Crete is the ‘Island Of Light’ and the birthplace of Zeus. Heraklion is the capital of the largest and most southerly of the Greek islands on which a highly developed culture has existed for four thousand years. It’s no wonder that in these magnificent islands in the Aegean numerous gods, knights and tourists have always found much good fortune and enchantment!

Travel Guide to Santorini, Greece

Duration: 3:31
Updated: 01 Oct 2012

http://bestflights.co.za/europe/greece/santorini Colorful! Spectacular! Beautiful! Romantic! This is some of the words that best describes the island of Santorini. The islands is a result of a massive volcanic eruption that happened 3600 years ago. Even though Santorini has a violent origin it has the most majestic landscape, spectacular sunsets and great wines that lure tourists all over the world. Santorini is one of the great natural wonders of the world, and its main attraction is the landscape and seascape of the island itself. Santorini's primary industry is tourism, particularly in the summer months. Santorini is well-known for its low-lying cubical houses, made of local stone and whitewashed or lime-washed with various volcanic ashes used as colours. The island is popular for its legendary sunsets, which is some of the most spectacular in the world. Santorini ranks among top destinations for wedding celebrations for at least 4 years - primarily for sunset and peace. The landscape such as the blue sky, the little white houses perched on gigantic rocks on hills that plummet to the sea, the lemon and orange groves, the pink and white churches that look like pastry cakes and the faces and warmth and expressiveness of the Greek people makes the island a popular tourist destination. The best time to visit Santorini is from June to September since it is when almost all events and festivals occur. During these months, the weather is great for a swim and staying on the beach. Spoil yourself with a vacation to Santorini and enjoy the beautiful, colourful and spectacular atmosphere with a splash of romance.

Meteora Greece - Amazing Travel Guide,trip and experience

Check also - http://www.facebook.com/SimioniucAdrianIulianModel Meteora is wonderful place( unique and unbelievable) where you can find 6 monasteries , 4 inhibited by men and 2 inhibited by women. The closest city is Kalambaka at just 5 km where you can find some hotels but the prices are pretty high , I suggest you to get accomodation in Larissa(100km away) or in Thessaloniki(250km away) , Meteora is a 1 day destination because if you follow to main road you can visit all monasteries in just few hours. You can visit here also a cave. The Meteora means , 'middle of the sky','suspended in air'or 'in the heavens above' etymologically related with "Meteorite" is one of the largest and most important complexes of Eastern Orthodox monasteries in Greece,second only to Mount Athos. The six monasteries are built on natural sandstone rock pillars,on the plane of Thessaly near the Pindus mountains in central Greece You have 2 ways to get at Meteora , first is From Thessaloniki but you have to drive 250km and the second is from larissa and you have to drive just 100km or you can take a bus from a travel agency. About accommodation tell u that it is pretty bad and expensive , people usually come here to stay 1 night or maxim 2 because following the main road you can visit all monasteries in just 1 day Meteora is a place where you can find 6 monasteries 4 inhibited by man and 2 inhinited by women. As you can see to get here is not easy so take care. And finnaly when you get to the monastery you have to pay a tax to visit it In the 14th during the Ottoman invasion the monks decided to build new monasteries right on the pick, the only safe place in the period of time Here were 24 active monestries Kalambaka is the closest city situated at just 5km People started to live here thousands of years ago but in 9 century a group of monks move up to this nice place. Meteora is a place where natural and man made wonders are linked makeing this place unique. The Holy Monastery of Grand Meteoron is the largest of the monasteries located at Meteora. It was elected in the mid-14th century and the building serves as the main museum for tourists The holy monastery of Varlaam is the second largest monastery in the Meteora complex.It was built in 1541 and it is dedicated to all Saints. The holy monastery of St.Stehen is a small church built in the 16th century.This monastery rests on the plain rather than on a cliff. it was damaged by the Nazis during WW2 who believed it was harbouring insurgents and was abandoned.Nuns took it over and Reconstructed it. The monastery of the Holy Trinity is on top of the cliffs and it was built in 1475. The holy Monastery of St.Barbara was founded in the middle of 16th century. http://youtu.be/5oGkqUul4xE

Visit Corfu - Greece Travel Guide

Duration: 5:36
Updated: 26 Jun 2013

World Travel https://www.youtube.com/user/World1Tube Greece Travel Guide http://bit.ly/19QqISc Shepherd Entertainment gives you the history of Corfu and takes you on a tour of the city's sites and attractions. Its visitors can enjoy the Halikiopoulos Lagoon, St. Mark fortress and the famous Vlacherna Monastery, which is the symbol of the Island. A castle of stones and earthworks stood in the place of the old fortress around the 5th century. It was fortified by the Byzantines who established their capital here as a protection from the attacks of the Vandals, the Goths and the Slavs. In the court, the Doric style pillared garrison church was built. The residential buildings were connected by an underground labyrinth. The walls on the seaside were made higher. In the 18th century, the buildings were surrounded by a wide water jump which is used as a port nowadays. A drawbridge spans the channel. From the esplanade, we can reach the castle using this bridge. The dungeons, the knights' rooms and the towers of the building surmounting the cliff are reminiscent of the fortress that was once impregnable even by the Turkish. The museum and the lapidary tell tales of old ages. Of course, we can't only see Byzantine mosaics but also frescoes and reliefs as reminiscences of the 400 years of Venetian rule. The lighthouse still helps the orientation of ships and the castle chapel is also in operation. The far side of the 5km promenade is occupied by the Kanoni Peninsula. The area between the two ports was the city of the ancient Kerkyra, the excavation of which has not yet been finished completely. The summer residency of the English governors was built on the nice little peninsula covered by rich vegetation. This is where Austrian Queen Elizabeth stayed when she was looking for a place to build her castle and this is where Philip, Duke of Edinburg was born who became the husband of Queen Elizabeth of England. The Halikiopoulos Lagoon can be found between the capital and Perama. The runway of the airport of Corfu was built on its bank. Here can be found the symbol of the island, the Vlacherna Monastery standing on a peninsula with the Pontikonissi or Mouse Island behind. Its white stairs among evergreens lead up to a small nunnery. Vlacherna and its surroundings is the most visited and photographed site on Corfu. The white washed belfry church can be accessed by a foot bridge. Thousands of visitors come to this place on a pilgrimage which is gripping in its simplicity. From the café with terrace on the top of the steep green hill, there's a magnificent view of the monastery and the every changing colors of the sea. The new fortress was built by the Venetians who gave it the obvious name St. Mark. The lion with wings can still be seen over the gate. Today, the base of the Greek navy can be found here. However, in the port, there are hardly any naval vessels. There are more ferries bringing tourists and cars from Bari Italy. By hydrofoil, the travel time can be reduced by 2/3. But travelling this way on a rolling sea is more like an extreme sport. The Byzantine museum can be found in the scenic Capielo district. It was established in the Panagia AntivouniotissaChurch built in the 15th century. Here, paintings and icons by famous artists such as -- Lombardos or Damascinos are exhibited. From the terrace of the marjia, we can view the Venetian port which is called Mandraki like in Cos and Rhodos. Instead of Venetian galleons, today, tourist ships gather here.

The Literary Epigram, with Chris Carey and Maria Kanellou

Duration: 26:09
Updated: 28 Dec 2014

Professor Chris Carey and Dr Maria Kanellou join CC’s Anastasia Bakogianni at UCL’s Department of Greek & Latin to talk about the literary epigram. They tell us about this ancient literary genre, its form, origins and evolution from archaic Greece to Byzantium. The epigram dates back to the introduction of writing in ancient Greece. As a literary genre it flourished not only in Greece, but in Rome and it persisted through to the Byzantine world. The genre’s ability to adapt to new circumstances and to respond to developments in other literary genres ensured its success. Literary epigrams cover a wealth of subject matter and offer a vast tonal range. Maria and Chris share with us their thoughts on their favourite type of epigram. Maria tells us about her study of erotic epigram, while Chris explains the many functions of funerary epigrams. Maria and Chris talk to us about how literary epigrams were produced and consumed. From performances at symposia, where guests strove to outdo each other by crafting the best epigram of the evening, to reading a collection in the comfort of one’s own home the literary epigram continued to be popular with a variety of audiences. Maria and Chris testify to the appeal that these short poems have for modern readers. Maria and Chris also tell us about two international conferences designed to promote the study of the literary epigram. Last year’s Greek Literary Epigram: From the Hellenistic to the early Byzantine Era (11-13 September 2013) and the Palladas and the New Papyrus (4-5 September 2014), which will bring together a number of experts to discuss the discovery of a new papyrus containing fragments from about sixty epigrams by Palladas of Alexandria dated to 4th century AD. Follow this link to watch our interview, and to learn more about this protean literary form and its evolution. From Greek courtesans as pirate ships, to a jilted lover begging a lamp for aid, the literary epigram has much to offer. Join us to find out more! Main epigrams referred to in this interview: Antipater of Sidon AP 7.218 I hold Lais, who exalted in her wealth and purple dress and in her amours/ with the power of Eros, more delicate than tender Cypris, the citizen of sea-girt Corinth, more sparkling than the white water of Peirene, the mortal Cytherea, who had more noble suitors than the daughter/ bride of Tyndareus, plucking her charms and mercenary favours. Her very tomb smells of sweet-scented saffron, her skull is still soaked with fragrant ointment, and her anointed locks still breathe a perfume as of frankincense. For her the Foam-born tore her lovely face, and sobbing Eros groaned and wailed. If she had not made her bed the public slave of gain, Greece would have pains for her as for Helen. (trans. K. Gutzwiller, slightly altered) Asclepiades AP 5.7 Lamp, Heracleia swore three times in your presence that she would come, and she hasn’t come; lamp, if you are a god, take revenge on the deceitful girl; whenever she has a friend at home playing with him, extinguish yourself and give (them) no more light. (trans. W.R.Paton, modified) Paulus Silentiarius AP 5.272 I press her breasts, our mouths are joined, and I feed in unrestrained fury round her silver neck. However, I have not conquered the whole ‘Foam-born’ yet; I still toil pursuing a maiden, who refuses me her bed. Half of herself she has given to Paphia and half to Athena, and I waste away between the two. (trans. W.R.Paton, modified) Meleager AP 5.204 No longer Timarion, the once hollowed fast-sailing ship, can endure the rowing of Aphrodite; but the back is curved like a yard-arm on the mast, and the greying forestays are loose, and the relaxed breasts are loose like hanging sails, and she has a wrinkled belly because of the tossing, and below the whole ship is completely full of bilge-water, and the sea overflows the ship’s hold, and her knees tremble. Wretched is whoever will sail still alive across the lake of Acheron having mounted the old twenty oared-galley. (trans. W.R.Paton, modified)

Ancient Greeks- Spartan Invasion The Full Documentary

Duration: 55:02
Updated: 05 Oct 2014

Classical Antiquity in the Mediterranean region is commonly considered to have begun in the 8th century BC (around the time of the earliest recorded poetry of Homer) and ended in the 6th century AD. Classical Antiquity in Greece is preceded by the Greek Dark Ages (c. 1200 – c. 800 BC), archaeologically characterised by the protogeometric and geometric styles of designs on pottery. This period is succeeded, around the 8th century BC, by the Orientalizing Period during which a strong influence of Syro-Hittite, Assyrian, Phoenician and Egyptian cultures becomes apparent. Traditionally, the Archaic period of ancient Greece is considered to begin with Orientalizing influence, which among other things brought the alphabetic script to Greece, marking the beginning of Greek literature (Homer, Hesiod). The end of the Dark Ages is also frequently dated to 776 BC, the year of the first Olympic Games.[6] The Archaic period gives way to the Classical period around 500 BC, in turn succeeded by the Hellenistic period at the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BC.

Ancient Greece & the Mediterranean Islands

Duration: 21:12
Updated: 14 Jun 2014

In the 2nd century BC, artistic and cultural activities reached their heights in the cities of Ionia, a densely populated area on the cost of modern-day Turkey, as well as on a cluster of islands off the eastern Mediterranean. Priene, Miletus, Delos, "Slave Island", Kos and Rhodes, home of the famous Colossus, are just some of the places we will be visiting. Ionia (Ancient Greek: Ἰωνία or Ἰωνίη; Turkish: İyonya) is an ancient region of central coastal Anatolia in present-day Turkey, the region nearest İzmir, which was historically Smyrna. It consisted of the northernmost territories of the Ionian League of Greek settlements. Never a unified state, it was named after the Ionian tribe who, in the Archaic Period (600--480 BC), settled mainly the shores and islands of the Aegean Sea. Ionian states were identified by tradition and by their use of Eastern Greek. Ionia proper comprised a narrow coastal strip from Phocaea in the north near the mouth of the river Hermus (now the Gediz), to Miletus in the south near the mouth of the river Maeander, and included the islands of Chios and Samos. It was bounded by Aeolia to the north, Lydia to the east and Caria to the south. The cities within the region figured large in the strife between the Persian Empire and the Greeks. According to Greek tradition, the cities of Ionia were founded by colonists from the other side of the Aegean. Their settlement was connected with the legendary history of the Ionic people in Attica, which asserts that the colonists were led by Neleus and Androclus, sons of Codrus, the last king of Athens. In accordance with this view the "Ionic migration", as it was called by later chronologers, was dated by them one hundred and forty years after the Trojan war, or sixty years after the return of the Heracleidae into the Peloponnese. From the 18th century BC the region was a part of the Hittite Empire with possible name Arzawa,which was destroyed by invaders during the 12th century BC together with the collapse of the Empire. Ionia was settled by the Greeks probably during the 11th century BC. The most important city was Miletus (the Milawanta of Hittites). Several centuries later Ionia was the place where western philosophy began and was the homeland of Heraclitus, Thales, Anaximander and Anaximenes. They were natural-philosophers of the Ionian school of philosophy and tried to explain the phenomena according to no-supernatural laws. They also searched a simple material-form behind the appearances of things (origin) and this conception had a great influence on the early archaic art in Greece.

Siphnian Treasury: a treasury is a small building with a temple form used to save votive offerings. In this one, in the fronton, Heracles and Apollo are fighting for the tripod of Delphi. Zeus is in the middle. The frieze has mythological scenes. In one side the theme is Troy, and in the other the theme is a council of the gods that had part in the War of Troy. Athenian Treasury: the same, and the metopes tell acts of Heracles and Teseus, and an Amazonomachy. Sicily: if you want to see greek temples, come here. All the temples respect the classical style.
