When exactly did the Greek Revolution begin? The Philiki Etaireia as part of revolutionary action during 1820

Date

Abstract

This paper addresses the question of revolutionary beginnings. It revisits 1820 from the standpoint of international developments, in both post-Napoleonic Europe and the Ottoman Empire and discusses in parallel the activities of the leadership of the Philiki Etaireia (in Italy, the Ottoman Empire and especially Russia). In other words, it attempts to place the internal story of the Greek secret society in the context of the “first wave” of the post-Vienna revolutions of 1820. The impact of revolutionary insurrections or activities in the Mediterranean (as well as other) regions will be assessed anew, while taking into consideration the dynamics of an international order in transformation.
