First Athenian School

Illustration — Alexandros Rizos Rangavis • Illustration — Theodoros G. Orphanides • Illustration — Panagiotis Soutsos The term First Athenian School denotes the literary production in Athens between 1830 and 1880. After Greek Independence, the basic intellectual centres of the Greek world were the Ionian Islands (with the Heptanese School) and Athens, the capital of the new Greek Kingdom. Many of the leading members of the First Athenian School were of Phanariote origin, whence it is sometimes referred to as the Phanariotic School (Φαναριωτική Σχολή).
