| Scope and Content | Gregorius G. Pappadopoulos to George Finlay. Athens, 1 October 1867. Comments on de Cigalla's list of literary publications after 1860 (in French; stuck on back flyleaf of J. de Cigalla, Σχεδίασμα κατόπτρου τῆς νεοελληνικῆς φιλολογιας, Hermoupolis, 1846). |
| Notes | Greece was one of the last European countries to adopt the newer Gregorian calendar. For most of the nineteenth century, the Julian calendar was 12 days behind the Gregorian. British correspondents in the Finlay Collection tend to use the newer calendar. Letters with two dates 12 days apart, eg. 24 April / 6 May 1828, refer to both the Julian and Gregorian calendars. |
