This Friday (Nov 17) in Istanbul: Collective Identities in the Kaza of Gumuldjina [=Komotini, Greece] (1870-1913): Demography and Nationalisms, presentation by Paraskevas Konortas (Univ. of Athens) at the Ottoman Bank Archives at 5PM. "Based on Ottoman, Greek and Bulgarian demographical sources as well as on other documents relating to them, Konortas will attempt to show in
his lecture, that at least until the Balkan Wars and the Lausanne Treaty,
the vast majority of the population in this area (Muslims, Orthodox,
Exarchists and a few Armenians, Jews and foreigners) had no clear
national identity."
