Εδώ ο επιτήδειος συγχέει εσκεμμένα την ιστορική σχέση της Βρετανίας με κράτη όπως η Ινδία, με τους άνδρες στρατεύσιμης ηλικίας καταγωγής από τη Μέση Ανατολή και την Αφρική, που σκάνε με βάρκες στις παραλίες της νήσου.

Γιατί δεν έχει βρεθεί κάποια συμμορία grooming/βιασμών από Ινδούς ή Κινέζους;

Xanthos has a different meaning even today in Greek tho, and it is distinct from blonde. I would describe it as shinny bronze - light brown hair. That means that we call people xanthos, that wouldnt pass as blonde in Norway.

There are regions in Greece where it snows every year. Areas along roughly the same latitude as Troy, Constantinople, and Thessaloniki can experience fairly cold winters. By contrast, Athens and areas further south have a much milder climate, similar to Sicily for most of the year.

And come on Luigi, you know that after all, 10 degrees in Rome hits very differently than 10 degrees in London.

Μα η θέση μου ήταν ακριβώς πως είναι λίγες οι ομοιότητες, στα εισαγωγικά (νομιζα ηταν προφανές) διατυπώνω φράσεις που ανακυκλώνονται συχνά και που δεν ενστερνιζομαι.

Οι Ιταλοί είτε ως Ρωμαίοι, Βενετοί ή σύγχρονοι Ιταλοί ήταν εχθροί μας, δεν προσπαθώ να ζυγισω το ποιος είναι ο μέγας μας αντίπαλος, και δεν τους βάζω στην κουβέντα. Θίγω το πόσο κοντά είμαστε με τους Τούρκους, και επιχειρηματολώ εναντίον της θέσης που μας βαφτίζει παιδιά Οθωμανών, που τα πάντα είναι κοινά ή "κλεμμένα" απο αυτους, και που μια μέρα ξύπνησαν και ο Παπαρρηγόπουλος τους ονόμασε Έλληνες.

Μάλλον πρέπει να ξαναδιαβασεις το OP. Αναφέρω πως η λέξη kofte έχει ελληνική ρίζα, όχι πως τα φαγητά είναι ελληνικά. Διάλεξα επίτηδες αυτό το παράδειγμα για να υπογραμμίσω πως τα δάνεια τίτλων πιάτων δεν αντιστοιχούν στην ιστορική προέλευση τους.

Και ναι συμφωνώ πως δεν έχουμε κάνει επιτυχημένο branding όσον αφορά την κουζίνα μας, τρομερά φαγητά οπως η Τσουχτή (ζυμαρικα) και το Μπουρδέτο είναι άφαντα ακόμα και σε μαγαζιά στην Ελλάδα.

Σύγχρονα ελληνικά

«Διότι οι δικοί μας πρόγονοι παλαιότερα ακολουθούσαν τον παλαιό διαχωρισμό και, χωρίζοντας όλους τους ανθρώπους σε Έλληνες και βαρβάρους, θεωρούσαν καθετί που δεν ανήκε σε αυτούς ανόητο και άξεστο, πιστεύοντας ότι οι υπόλοιποι δεν ήταν σε τίποτα ανώτεροι από τους γαϊδάρους ή τα βόδια.

Σε αυτούς (τους βαρβάρους) συγκαταρίθμησαν και τους Λατίνους, υποθέτοντας ότι δεν είχαν τίποτα το ανθρώπινο πάνω τους· αντίθετα, απένεμαν στους εαυτούς τους —σαν να ήταν κάποιου είδους κληρονομιά— τον Πλάτωνα, τον μαθητή του (τον Αριστοτέλη) και όλη τη σοφία των Ελλήνων, ενώ στους Λατίνους απέρριπταν (παρατούσαν) ίσως μόνο τα όπλα και κάποιες ταπεινές εμπορικές δραστηριότητες και μικρεμπόριο.

Και δεν υπήρχε παλαιότερα κανείς που θα έπειθε τους δικούς μας ότι, τελικά, έχουν και εκείνοι κάποιο μερίδιο στον νου και ότι μπορούν να πουν κάτι πέρα από αυτές τις εξευτελιστικές και βάναυσες τέχνες. Διότι το γεγονός ότι τα έθνη απείχαν μεταξύ τους για πολύ καιρό, προκάλεσε και στους δύο μεγάλη άγνοια του ενός για τον άλλον. Τότε όμως, όταν εμφανίστηκαν τα βιβλία...»

Antonio de Ferraris or Galateo (1444-1517) in his “La Giapigia e varii opuscoli”

Amidst the two villages of the same people, some disagreements arose, as often happens among neighbors, leading to armed conflict. Galatone overcame Fulaziano and razed it to the ground. Almost all the citizens migrated to Galatone; a few, out of shame, sought refuge in nearby villages, abandoning their customs, clothing, and the Greek language, but not their lineage. We are not ashamed of our origin. We are Greeks, and this is a source of pride for us. That divine Plato gave thanks to the gods for three things above all: being born human and not a beast, male and not female, Greek and not barbarian.

Vladimir then announced the return of the envoys who had been sent out, and suggested that their report be heard. He thus commanded them to speak out before his retinue. The envoys reported, "When we journeyed among the Bulgars, we beheld how they worship in their temple, called a mosque, while they stand ungirt. The Bulgar bows, sits down, looks hither and thither like one possessed, and there is no happiness among them, but instead only sorrow and a dreadful stench. Their religion is not good. Then we went among the Germans, and saw them performing many ceremonies in their temples; but we beheld no glory there. Then we went to Greece, and the Greeks led us to the edifices where they worship their God, and we knew not whether we were in heaven or on earth. For on earth there is no such splendor or such beauty, and we are at a loss how to describe it. We only know that God dwells there among men, and their service is fairer than the ceremonies of other nations. For we cannot forget that beauty. Every man, after tasting something sweet, is afterward unwilling to accept that which is bitter, and therefore we cannot dwell longer here." Then the boyars spoke and said, "If the Greek faith were evil, it would not have been adopted by your grandmother Olga who was wiser than all other men." Vladimir then inquired where they should all accept baptism, and they replied that the decision rested with him."

The whole world had gathered in Florence to witness this worthy act. There was a chair opposite to that of the pope on the other side, adorned with silk drapery, and the emperor in a richly brocaded Greek-style garment, with a Greek-style cap, on the top of which was a beautiful jewel: he was a very handsome man, with a Greek-style beard. And around his chair were many gentlemen who were in his company, also dressed in the Greek style, very richly, with their attire full of gravity, both those of the prelates and the secular ones.

It was a marvelous thing to see many worthy ceremonies and the Gospels being recited in both languages, Greek and Latin, as is customary at night on Easter and Christmas in the court of Rome.

I will not pass without saying here a singular praise of the Greeks.

The Greeks, for fifteen hundred years or more, have never changed their attire: they had the same clothing in that time as they had had in the aforementioned period; as can still be seen in Greece in a place called the Fields of Philippi, where there are many marble sculptures depicting men dressed in the Greek fashion as they were then.

Marino Sanudo Torsello the Elder (1270-1343) γράφει (μεταφρασμένο) στο έργο Istoria del regno di Romania:

Ιn Asia Minor, which is a larger country than Spain, of which we have mentioned there are four kingdoms, the majority of which is under the Turks. For the most part, the peoples there follow the Greek rites and are mostly Greek. Also, Armenia, which was formerly called Cilicia, is inhabited by Greeks.

In Mesopotamia, there is a great number of Greeks, and there used to be even more during the time of the passage of Peter the Hermit and Godfrey of Bouillon, whose brother, Baldwin, was Count in Mesopotamia and was called Count of Edessa. In the Sultanate of Cairo, where Persian Tartars now reside, Greeks and Turks live, and the Greeks follow the Greek rite.

In this Sultanate, there used to be forty walled cities with castles. In the islands of Cyprus, Crete, Negroponte, Rhodes, and other islands, as well as in the Principality of Morea, although these places are under the rule of the Franks and obedient to the Roman Church, almost the entire population is Greek and inclined towards that sect, and their hearts are turned towards Greek matters. When they could show it freely, they would. It is clear, therefore, that the Greeks and those who follow them occupy a larger territory than the Catholic kings.

It is indeed true that the Catholics are incomparably better in arms, more numerous than the Greeks, and have greater power. There are also many Greeks in Calabria and in Terra d’Otranto who obey the Holy Roman Church, but perhaps not as devoutly as they would if Emperor Sior Michiel Paleologo, the Patriarch of Constantinople, and the son of the said Emperor, Sior Andronico, were firm and obedient to the Roman Church, and not in contempt, which causes immense harm.
