“Elliniki Nomarchia approached the Greek question in a fully developed theoretical context of political radicalism and analysed it as an issue of radical moral reform and social revolution. The Anonym Greek combined actual knowledge of the problems of Greek society with a deep familiarity with the social thinking of The Enlightenment. His essay abounds with hints and references, reflecting the great tradition of European literature, from classical Greek historians and folklore writers to contemporary dramatists and political philosophers. The result was the greatest monument to political theory in the Greek Enlightenment, offering a sharp interpretation of the recession and the perspectives of the Greek nation in terms of the political thinking of Montesquieu, Rousseau, Alfieri and Beccaria and with firm background Aristotle and Xenophon, Polybius and Ploutarchos.

(p. 344-345) “Elliniki Nomarchia belonged to the tradition of Greek political radicalism, which sprang from the introduction of French revolutionary ideas in Greek thinking. Rigas was the most heroic representative of this tradition of the Greek revolutionary Enlightenment, while the Anonym Greek provided the most comprehensive theoretical expression. I believe that the radicalism of Elliniki Nomarchia is fully discernible considering that this theoretical essay on political radicalism was written in 1806, after the French Revolution had already exhausted its radical impulse, and the hopes of many liberal Europeans and supporters of the Enlightenment had been disillusioned by the experience of Terror and the rise of Napoleonic dictatorship”.
