The Modern Greek Studies Association Symposium is considered to be one of the world’s most pre-eminent international conferences on Greece and is held every two years, organized by the Modern Greek Studies Association (MGSA) at locations across North America. This year marks the 27th symposium and it was held at York University Keele campus for the first time and in Toronto only for the second. An international cohort of accomplished scholars from many disciplines in the Humanities and the Social Sciences, Film and Media Studies attended the conference. As has been the case in the last few Symposia, History is prominently featured, not least because of the bicentennial of the Greek Revolution and the centennial from the Asia Minor Catastrophe. More than 120 participants came to Toronto and York from the United States, Greece, the U.K., and even Australia.
