ΜBy what means was Christianity imposed on the Greek area? How was the dominant ideology of Byzantium formed? What is the root cause of its shrinking and eventual destruction? What does the Orthodox Church have to do with the imposition of monotheism and its development in the East? Why did the Renaissance take place in the West? What reasons favored the establishment of the "Greek-Christian" ideology in modern Greece? And finally, why do modern Greeks find it incredibly difficult to modernize their state, adapting to the demands of a constantly changing world?
This bold book aspires to investigate these questions, through a tour of our medieval history, both with the help of the sources of each era and with newer, scientifically documented positions.
A documented study of the eternal conflict between Hellenism and Christianity, the consolidation of the Orthodox Church in Greece, the formation of our national identity and the ideological relationship of the modern Greek with the concept of Greekness.
Hellenism in Byzantium, the "defeat" by Christianity and the role of the Orthodox Church, in a book that will be discussed!
