The primary discussion is on her paper: PΩΜΑΙΟΚΡΑΤΙΑ ≠ ROMAN OCCUPATION: (MIS)PERCEPTIONS OF THE ROMAN PERIOD IN GREECE. A line from the paper sums up the direction of her research: "…very little has been written about modern perceptions of this period." This paper is available on Academia.edu. This is a fun and interesting discussion with an outstanding educator. The podcast includes the following topics: What do modern Greeks think of their history after Actium? Was it really that bad to live under the Romans? As a Greek speaker Ms.Kouremenos provides an Ancient Greek and Modern Greek comparison. Did the Europeans demonize the Romans in 18th Century writings? Do our modern perspectives color the way we see history itself?
