New source on Northern Epirus (1913)
Dr. Ilias Chrissochoidis
Dear list members,
"A Century-Old Debt: The Plight of Northern Epirotes for Self-determination" (The Journal of Modern Hellenism 37 [Winter 2025–26]) presents two documents found during my "excavation" of modern Greek sources at the Hoover Institution in 2014. (https://americanhellenicinstitute.org/s/015_Ilias-Chrissochoidis.pdf)
A summary of the main document ("Memorandum of the Epirotes of the District of Korytza to the Ambassadors at London in 1913") was published in Greek in the same year ("Εκατό χρόνια από τις μεγάλες αλλαγές στην Ηπειρο," Καθημερινή, 27 July 2014). The dozen years separating the two publications make me wish for the establishment of a formal register/depository to accept and offer academic credit for similar archival discoveries.
Best regards,
Ilias Chrissochoidis
