| description | Adamantios Koraïs was a cosmopolitan scholar of the age of the Enlightenment, who translated, commented and published numerous ancient texts, among other works. Koraïs thinks that education is the key for the well being of a person and of a nation. The study of the great classical works of Greek literature seems appropriate to him for the realisation of this extremely difficult task.In the present article I shall try to clarify better his positions on how could the study of the « classical » authors contribute to the ethical and political education of the Greeks, during the independence war and after the creation of the modern Greek state. It is possible that Koraïs ideas present still some interest today, for any human being who desires a happy life. |
