About This Book

A historical essay traces how German public enthusiasm and intellectual support for the Greek independence movement emerged as an early and distinct strand of European philhellenism, examines the contrast between popular sympathy and the actions of various governments, and analyzes the diplomatic and military interplay among Russia, Britain, France and Austria that shaped the conflict's outcome. It argues that popular moral force and volunteer aid combined with Russian political intervention to secure success, while other powers oscillated between obstruction and reluctant cooperation. The study assesses naval engagements and diplomatic maneuvers and stresses the ethical and national consequences of foreign involvement for the Greek cause.
