Until 1923 there were large Greek populations outside the
boundaries of the Greek state in many areas of the Near and Middle
East. These constituted what the Greeks term I kath'imas Anatoli
('our East') and were the focus for the Megali Idea, the 'Great
Idea' of incorporating the Greeks of the region within a single
state, with Constantiople as its capital. Professor Clogg deals
here with the history of this Greek East in the 18th and 19th
centuries and at the same time makes a contribution to the study of
the Ottoman world within which they lived. The opening articles
examine how these communities were defined, in religious terms
(many were Turkish-speaking), and their organisation as part of the
Ottoman system of government. Further studies then look at factors,
economic, intellectual and messianic, which contributed to the
emergence of the Greek state and its expansionist aspirations, and
at aspects of religious history, including Protestant missionary
activity and the Orthodox reaction to Enlightenment thought.
