The new series of the Institute of Modern Greek Studies “Texts of Modern Greek Literature” is meant as a continuation of the series “Older Texts of Modern Greek Literature” and is also addressed to students, teachers, and the wide readership. It aims to provide handy scolarly editions of Modern Greek literary works written or published for the first time from the last quarter of the 18th century until the end of the interwar period (1940). Priority is given to unpublished works, but also to works known either from non-scolarly older editions or from unsatisfactory modern ones. Each publication is illustrated with relevant pictures, and includes an Introduction, the Text of the work, a Glossary and index of proper names, and an Annex with relevant texts.

The series “Texts of Modern Greek Literature” [TMGL] has already released its first edition:

G. Kechagioglou (ed.), Γεώργιος Λαπάτης (Σταθάς), Ιστορία ερωτική, ήτοι έρωτας σφοδρός ενός νέου, Κωνσταντινοπολίτου... [ George Lapatis (Stathás), A love story; that is an overwhelming love of a young Constantinopolitan man…], 2021 [TMGL 1]
