However I do not know if that is because I am Greek and I enjoyed a fresh perspective on the hagiography we have all been fed with since elementary school or if I'd have enjoyed it as much if I were unfamiliar with it all.

For the Greeks, the fight for independence from the Ottoman Empire was a cruel business, and its consequences far-reaching. Today's Greece is much more the child of that struggle than it is of the Classical period we know so much better. Because of Ottoman oppression and its brutal end, hostility to Turkey still smoulders, as does suspicion that foreign powers manipulate Greece for their own ends.
