The primary objective of the project is to catalogue, transliterate, and translate the 17th century Ottoman archival documents from Simonopetra Monastery; the secondary objectives are the presentations, exhibitions, and publications. The project’s originality and value is in it representing the first comprehensive cataloguing of the entire 17th century Ottoman archive of one Athonite monastery, but also in the research output, dissemination, and artistic and cultural public engagement.
