Vacalopoulos Constantin, Témoignages historiques sur l’état politique au Mont Athos (1880-1884)


Summary
The present article is generally dealing with the political situation of Athos at the end of the nineteenth century and more particularly with the circumstantial examination and analysis of the ecclesiastical disputes of 1883-1884 between the greek and russian monks of the monastery of Iviron and the skete of Prophitis Helias, attached to the monastery
of Pandokrator. The author is extracting information from precious and unpublished reports of the British consul Charles Blunt in Thessaloniki and documments written by greek monks, presently conserved in the Archives of the Public Records Office.
