This book examines informal modes of learning in Greece from in the late nineteenth and early
twentieth centuries  set against the backdrop of Greek nationalist interests and agendas. For
much of this period  one of the Greek state¿s major goals was to bind the nation around a
common history and culture  linked to a collective and homogenous community. This study
addresses the critical relationship between the average Greek child and their home  community 
and school life during the earliest stages of their education. The stories  games  songs  and
theater that children learned in Greece for much of the late nineteenth and early twentieth
centuries went beyond shaping their moral character or providing entertainment  but were
instrumental in forging a Greek national consciousness.
