The oldest literary society in mainland Greece,〔The Reading Society of Corfu (''Αναγνωστική Εταιρία Κερκύρας'') was created in 1836 ((website ))〕 it continues to be active today. The Society was founded on 24 June 1865 by the four children of the numismatist to contribute to the spiritual, social, and moral improvement of the Greek people through its events. Its first president was Michael Lambros. The club quickly became well-known, and functioned as a sort of Academy with literary, archaeological, legal, artistic and even scientific sections. It organized lectures, exhibitions, and various competitions. In 1872, at the suggestion of S. Vassiliadis, it opened a night school for destitute children. The historian Constantine Paparrigopoulos became honorary chairman. It was officially recognized by the Greek state on March 17, 1875. The club is now housed in a private mansion on the St. George Square designed by Ifikratis Kokkidis (Ιφικράτης Κοκκίδης). The club has a valuable library and art gallery with 250 works by Greek artists. ==Publications== From 1877–1895, the club published the magazine ''Parnassos'' (Παρνασσός).〔(Society's Web page on its publications )〕 From 1896–1939, it published ''Epeteris'' (Επετηρίς, "Yearbook").〔 From 1959 to the present, the club has published a second series of ''Parnassos'' quarterly.〔〔(bibliographic record at Harvard Libraries )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Parnassos Literary Society」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
