The seminar will introduce undergraduate and graduate students to the history of the Christian communities that existed in late Ottoman Asia Minor. The seminar will take place at the Center for Asia Minor Studies with a focus on the Oral History accounts of
refugees recounting life in their Asia Minor villages prior to their uprooting by the Treaty of Lausanne in 1923. The second portion of the seminar will be a trip to northern Greece to visit refugee settlements of villages that were encountered in the archives,
examining the settlement conditions, and the locations of memories from Asia Minor (churches, cultural centers, etc.). The seminar may be taken for undergraduate or graduate credit through Hellenic College Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology. </p>

Goals</p>
<p style="font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(48, 48, 48);">
The goals of the seminar are to:</p>
<p style="font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(48, 48, 48); margin-left: 40px;">

<p style="font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(48, 48, 48); margin-left: 40px;">
•Gain experience working in a major Greek archive</p>
<p style="font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(48, 48, 48); margin-left: 40px;">
•Examine the 1923 refugee villages where Greek Orthodox population of Asia Minor settled, and to examine artifacts, and talk to descendants</p>
<p style="font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(48, 48, 48); margin-left: 40px;">

Program of Study</p>
<p style="font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(48, 48, 48);">
Goals are achieved through a two-part program. The first segment covers the general history of the Greek communities of Asia Minor and includes:</p>

<p style="font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(48, 48, 48); margin-left: 40px;">
•The use of oral history archives as historical sources and the creation and categorization of the Center’s oral history archives</p>
<p style="font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(48, 48, 48); margin-left: 40px;">
