  Coordinator: Chrissi Sidiropoulou

  The University of the Bosporus is the evolution of Robert College, the historic American university founded in Constantinople in 1863. Anna Stavrakopoulou was the first to teach Ancient Greek in the Department of Western Languages and Literatures (1995-1996) with the support of the Alexandros Onassis Foundation. In 1997, Chrissi Sidiropoulou began teaching Modern Greek as part of the official study program. She also teaches Ancient Greek Philosophy in the Philosophy Department. This way a three-fold study program of Greek education (Ancient Greek language, Ancient Greek philosophy, Modern Greek language) has laid the foundations for the cultivation and enhancement of interest in Greek letters.
  The Byzantinist Kostis Smirlis was appointed to the University during the academic year 2002-2003 and has promoted a postgraduate course of Byzantine history in the Department of History. Kostis Smirlis teaches Byzantine History in undergraduage and postgraduate courses as well as Ancient Greek.
  The Department of Western Languages and Literatures offers six elective beginners courses in Ancient Greek and six courses in Modern Greek. Ancient Greek is a compulsory course for students of Byzantine history.

  The Modern Greek Studies Program is committed to offering instruction in four basic areas: Greek language, literature, history, and anthropology from the age of the Enlightenment to the present. Its aim is to present modern Greek civilization in the context of European history and culture, and more generally that of the modern world. The program aims to integrate Greek culture into several subject areas and make it accessible to students of diverse backgrounds and interests.
  Courses in modern Greek language were first offered in the early 1970s at Brown. In its present form, the program was launched in 1995 through a generous bequest from the estate of Mrs. Ethel Goltsos, a prominent Greek-American from Rhode Island. This bequest, with the additional support of a number of Brown donors, led to the establishment of an endowment for instruction in Modern Greek subject areas. In 2002, the Goltsos Lectureship in Modern Greek language was officially created.
  Modern Greek Studies offers a variety of courses each semester. There are seven semesters of language teaching, as well as courses in comparative literature, Byzantine Literature and history.
  Faculty: E. Amanatidou, M. Pourgouris, K. Kornetis, Eustraios Pappaioannou.
