A cycle of folk songs pertaining to the Souliotes and mainly to their wars against the Turks and Ali Pasha in 18th and early 19th century. The first collection of Souliotic songs was published by the French philologist and historian Claude Fauriel in 1824 in the 1st volume of his “''Chants populaires de la Grèce moderne''”, a cornerstone for French and Greek laography.〔(Fauriel Claude Charles , ''Chants populaires de la Grèce moderne'', vol. 1, Didot, Paris, 1824, vol. 2, 1825 )〕 This was the first major collection of Greek folk songs (''demotika'') ever published in a European language. The songs are given in the original Greek and in French translation. Apart from the songs, this publication includes an extensive history of Souli and its wars (pages 223-283). A footnote by Fauriel in p. 283 indicates that the collection was completed before the death of Markos Botsaris, i.e. before 1823. In other parts of the “Chants populaires” Fauriel published other folk songs directly related to the Souliotes, e.g. “''The death of Kitsos Botsaris''”, and “''The Deliberation of Ali Pasha''” (vol. 2, 1825, pp. 343–353). Fauriel heard these songs from Greek refugees in Venice and Trieste.〔(Maquet – Saraphopoulou Fanny, ''La traduction des Chants populaires de la Grèce moderne de Claude Fauriel au confluent des tendances esthétiques et littéraires du début du XIXe siècle. Postgraduate thesis, University of Thessaloniki, 2009, pp. 25, 26.'' )〕 After Fauriel many Greek and European authors published more Souliotic songs, as Souliotes continued fighting in the Greek Revolution which ended in 1829. In 1844 D.H.Sanders published some of the songs and their translation in German.〔(Sanders D.H., Das volksleben der Neugriechen, Mannheim, 1844. pp. 6-10. )〕 In 1852 the Greek historian Sp. Zambelios included a dozen of Souliotic songs in his collection of Greek folk songs. Among them was one for the death of Markos Botsaris (p.644, song No 57).〔(Zambelios Spyridon, Asmata Demotica tes Hellados (Greek Folk Songs), 1852. ) In Greek language. Some of the Souliotic songs are in pp. 644 (Death of M. Botsaris), 646 (Death of Kitsos Botsaris), 689 (The Treason of Delvino), 691 (Ali Pasha), 692 (Fall of Souli) etc.〕 ==Sources== 〔 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「Souliotic songs」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
