look to the report in our webside Press:Classical Greek...
(Different rates apply in case of partial participation. The project is sponsored by "Hellenikon Idyllion" which offers free accommodation in several-bed-rooms or 20% reduction in other rooms.
Notice: Throughout the year, scholar of Hellenic, students or school-classes get reductions in accommodation, if they come to practice Classical Greek language, bring their own texts written in Classical Greek or help us in EDV. See Conditions for collaborators

Even in our days there are people who are learning Plato´s language in order to understand better the classical works of the ancient Greeks, works concerning philosophy or tragedy or rhetoric. However, the mere knowledge of the language will not be enough for the advanced student. He will be intent on using the language in an active way. Yet conversing merely about commonplaces in attic Greek is rather beneath the dignity of such a language. One should deal with more sophisticated subjects in order to profit from a language so rich in nuances.

Therefore the Hellenikon Idyllion invites all those who have a good command of attic Greek to compose texts in this language about sophisticated subjects of their own choice: Biographies, chapters of glory, dialogues, treatises, poems or any other texts are likewise acceptable.

1. All participants get a document. 2. The document will point out the merits of the writing. 3. Better texts will be published by internet or by philological papers. 4. For the best textes are prepared suitable gifts.

Competition Regulations:

Send your text to the Hellenikon Idyllion, GR-25100 Selianitika/Egion, where it must arrive by the 1st of August 2002 at the latest.

Write your text on a computer with a maximum of 100 lines on two pages.

Please inform us about your present (professional or similar) activities, and apart from that in what way and for how long a time you have learned ancient Greek

If a school class has composed a text collectively, the person should be named who deserves the prize more than all the others. In case the class should plan a study trip to Greece, it will be entitled to a considerably reduced price for the stay at the Hellenikon Idyllion.

The Hellenikon Idyllion will publish the names of the prize-winners along with the most deserving texts in its journal THE CLASSICAL LANGUAGE OF THE GREEKS.

Texts sent in deliberately outside the rules of the competition will also be welcome. Authors of other suitable texts (outside the competition) will be offered a stay free of charge for two or more days at the Hellenikon Idyllion.

The Hellenikon Idyllion invites all lovers of classical Greek from all countries to take part in this competition in honour of the course in Attic Greek which will take place from the 12. - 26. of August 2002 for the ninth year running.

The Hellenikon Idyllion is a place of hospitality, where music and culture are fostered in a shady garden on the northern coast of the Peloponnesus, close to the sea.
