  • After Constantinople fell into Turkish hands in 1453, Greek emigration to the West, particularly Italy, became continuous and fairly concentrated. This short essay is dedicated to the phenomenon of the Greek Diaspora up to the formation of a Greek State in 1830, looking into the formation of Greek communities in the Italian peninsula -- Ancona, Naples, Leghorn, Genoa, Venice and Trieste. While on one hand the institution of a Greek church represents a point of cohesion for every community and is a common denominator of all Greek communities independently of their size; on the other hand the different political-economic context in which they were inserted had a bearing on their development. In this sense strong nationalist feelings were detected in the Greek community of Naples, while a cosmopolitan attitude characterised the Greek community of Trieste. The aim of this paper is by surveying the birth and growth of these communities concentrating on the churches and other institutions the Greeks founded, to identify the different relationships with the authorities they fostered as manifested in the cultural exchanges and the urban mark they left in their host cities.
