<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Voulgaroktonou, post: 6705436, member: 84047&quot;]Dear [USER=118535]@Stanw891[/USER], Here&#039;s a story you can share with your class: Years ago I attended a lecture by a noted Greek scholar of Byzantine history. He described the incident that led to his devoting his life to Byzantine studies. When he was a young child, the island he lived on was liberated by the Greek navy from the Turks. As the Greek marines were dismounting from their boats and coming ashore, he like hundreds of other Greeks were shouting out “Οι Έλληνες, οι Έλληνες”! (the Greeks, the Greeks!). A marine approached him and replied “Δεν είμαστε Έλληνες, είμαστε Ρωμαιοί”. (we are not Greeks, we are Romans”. I guess his story hooked me, too.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
