2012 · rif. 180314 — Cloth 25 cm 680 pp. Texts from printed editions and manuscripts containing constitutional texts of the Ionian Islands of the 19th century in greek italian english french or turkish along with the constitutional discourse written by Ugo Foscolo that shows strong affinities with the thought objectives and deeds of John Capodistrias who was to become the first president of independent Greece. The presentation of the entire corpus of Ionian Island constitutional texts many of which have not been readily available to the reading public before now is accompanied here by the insight of political and constitutional historians in specially commissioned introductory chapters. The constitutional texts reflect a complex web of converging and diverging forces that all contributed to the evolution of the constitutional debate in the Islands and which it is hoped will provide matter for further scholarly discussion regarding Ionian Island Greek European and Ottoman Turkish history.
