[h=2]The Asia Minor Catastrophe and the Ottoman Greek Genocide:
A New Book Edited by George Shirinian of the Zoryan Institute[/h]
The Asia Minor Catastrophe and the Ottoman Greek Genocide: Essayson Asia Minor, Pontos, and Eastern Thrace, 1913–1923 edited by George N. Shirinian, Executive Director of the Zoryan Institute, is a compilation of innovative papers given by distinguished scholars at two academic conferences organized by the Pontian Greek Society of Chicago and published by The Asia Minor and Pontos Hellenic Research Center in Chicago.
“…our knowledge of the catastrophic events affecting millions of peoplecaught up in the huge political and social transformation connected withthe dissolution of the Ottoman empire and the rise of the TurkishRepublic has not received the scholarly attention it deserves. Even thebest studied of these tragic events, ‘The Armenian Genocide,’ has beendeprived of a certain panoramic contextualization of a tragedy whichtouched profoundly the lives of several other religious and ethnic groups,such as the Greeks and Assyrians,” observed Theofanis G. Stavrou,Professor of History at the University of Minnesota.
This book and its careful treatment of the Greek experience within the broader genocide of the Christianminorities in the Ottoman Empire aims to fill a gap in the scholarly literature on the Greek Genocide andis one of the first to treat the genocidal experiences of the Armenians, Assyrians, and Greeks as anintegrated history.
