Call for contributors for "Greece and the Hellenic Tradition"

Cultural News and Events Directory - Previous Article - Next Article

From: HR-Net News Distribution Manager <dist@hri.org>

Originally from Dr Graham Speake via Fitzroy Dearborn Publishers <fitzroy.dearborn@virgin.net>

I am seeking contributors for an Encyclopedia of GREECE AND THE HELLENIC TRADITION, to be published by Fitzroy Dearborn Publishers in 1999. The idea for the book is to trace continuities and traditions across the whole spectrum of Greek culture from antiquity to the present day. If you would like more information about this project, please email the publishers at Fitzroy.dearborn@virgin.net, placing the word "helleninfo" on the subject line, and including your postal address, phone, and fax numbers.
