Abstract

There is much literature on the life and writings of Rhigas. This article
attempts to complement the existing literature by examining and analyzing
the most significant features of his political thought as articulated in his vision
of the Hellenic Republic. How did Rhigas define the Hellenic character of the
envisaged republic? What role would the Greek language play? What sort of
democracy did Rhigas opt for? What kind of political principles would
dominate? Finally, we will attempt a short analysis of the form of nationalism
emerging from his writings and of assumptions whether his project could be
effective and viable.
