Nea Moni (translation: "New Monastery") is an 11th-century monastery on the island of Chios, now recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It sits on the Provateio Oros Mt. in the island's interior, about 15 km from Chios town. Its mosaics, together with those at Daphni and Hosios Loukas, are among the finest examples of "Macedonian Renaissance" art in Greece. Doula Mouriki (19341991) was a Greek Byzantinologist and art historian, and made important contributions to the study of Byzantine art in Greece. Richard Burgi (1922-2012) Princeton University professor emeritus of Slavic languages and literatures, died of natural causes July 26 in Athens. Remembered for his deep understanding of Russian poetry as well as Hellenic studies, he also was known as a mentor to many students. Our books are in excellent condition, though the same cannot be said for the slipcase, which has suffered considerable damage, and been mended with brown tape so that it can still protect the books inside.
