Konstantinos Asopios ((ギリシア語:Κωνσταντίνος Ασώπιος)) was a Greek scholar and academic teacher of the 19th century from Epirus. ==Biography== Konstantinos Asopios was born in Grammeno near Ioannina around 1790. He was a child of a poor family and initially had the surname Dsolbas.〔Anastasios N. Goudas, 1874, p. 225.〕 After the death of his father, he followed his mother in Ioannina, where she had found work in the Melas family house. Thanks to his good performance at school he received a scholarship by the benefactor Zois Kaplanis. Later, he was given the surname “Asopios” by the school principal, Athanasios Psalidas, which he adopted.〔Anastasios N. Goudas, 1874, p. 225-226.〕 Alongside his studies, he worked as a private teacher and he use the amount of money he collected to go, along with Christoforos Filitas, in Italy (Naples) to study medicine, but a health problem forced him to go to Corfu in 1813 in order to regain health.〔Anastasios N.
