Konstantinos Paparrigopoulos was the most important historian in nineteenth century Greece. Like his contemporaries, he confronted all the crucial challenges of the young Greek state, especially the problem of modern Greek identity. His many activities throughout his life--as a university professor, a writer for the popular press, a participant in several national political and educational organizations--made him a prominent member of Greek society. Above all, it was his work as a professional historian, especially his monumental The History of the Greek Nation, that established him as an influencial national figure. The creation of a convincing synthesis of the history of Hellenism was Paparrigopoulos' greatest contribution to modern Greek thought. He re-evaluated the classical period of Hellenism, which he considered the foundation of the Greek nation, and named it First Hellenism. He considered the Hellenistic period a new phase of Hellenism and called it Macedonian Hellenism. During this era, he concluded that the boundaries of the classical period were much expanded and he outlined important political and cultural contributions. The long period of Roman occupation of the Greek world was for him a decline of Hellenism, but he also emphasized a revolutionary development at this time: the fact that the Greeks embraced Christianity, which helped to revive Hellenism and establish a Helleno-Christian civilization. During the Byzantine period, Hellenism not only survived Slavic and Arabic assaults but also managed to emerge, after the Iconoclastic reforms, as the most dynamic civilization of the Middle Ages. Hellenism, as manifested by the Byzantine Empire, achieved political unity and its greatest expansion. The European imperialist expansion to the East, beginning with the Crusades, and the Ottoman conquest of the Eastern Mediterranean brought an end to the glorious Byzantine state. But in the ashes of this destruction Modern Hellenism was born. Finally, after centuries of heroic acts against Turkish and European oppressors, Hellenism established a national identity and achieved its national independence. This fundamental synthesis illustrated the continuity of the Greek people and portrayed both the classical and Byzantine heritages as essential elements of modern Greek identity. These ideas, in turn, became the foundation of the concept of the Megale Idea, the renewed nationalism of the independent Greek state which bore striking resemblance to such central and eastern European nationalist ideologies as Pan Germanism and Pan Slavism.
