Jakarta, June 4 2026 - The Faculty of Social Sciences and Law, Universitas Negeri Jakarta (FISH UNJ), participated in a public lecture titled \u201cGreek Language through the Ages: Literature and History,\u201d featuring the Ambassador of Greece to Indonesia, Dimitrios Michalopoulos, as the keynote speaker. The event was held at the Maftuchah Yusuf Auditorium, Dewi Sartika Building, 2nd Floor, Universitas Negeri Jakarta.<\/p>

The public lecture served as a cross-cultural learning platform for the academic community of UNJ, particularly students of FISH UNJ, to gain deeper insights into the historical development of the Greek language, classical literature, and its contribution to the evolution of human thought and world civilization. This activity also reflects UNJ\u2019s commitment to supporting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 4: Quality Education, by expanding students\u2019 access to global learning experiences, and SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals, by strengthening academic networks and international educational diplomacy.<\/span><\/p>

In his opening remarks, Prof. Dr. Suyono, M.Si., emphasized the important position of Greece in the history of world civilization. He stated that Greece has made remarkable contributions to philosophy, literature, democracy, language, and the development of human thought, shaping intellectual traditions across generations and continents.<\/span><\/p>\u201c<\/span>Greece occupies a unique and distinguished place in the story of world civilization.

He further highlighted that the Greek language is not only significant as a linguistic heritage, but also as one of the foundations of knowledge, history, and modern academic traditions. Through this public lecture, students were encouraged to broaden their global perspectives and understand language as an essential element in the formation of culture, identity, and human knowledge.<\/span><\/p>

The public lecture was moderated by Suci Maharani, M.Pd. In his presentation, Ambassador Dimitrios Michalopoulos explained that the development of Greek literature was deeply rooted in the oral tradition of the Classical period. During this era, epic stories were delivered through declamation in various religious festivals. Although storytellers were allowed a certain degree of flexibility in delivering the text, they were expected to preserve the integrity of the storyline and meaning.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cAt the time, adhering to the words of the text was not compulsory, but the story had to be respected. So you could alter the story a bit, but you had to be faithful to the plot. You couldn't change that,\u201d Ambassador Michalopoulos explained.<\/p>

He further elaborated that this oral tradition gradually developed into historical prose, giving rise to a more systematic approach to historiography. Herodotus was introduced as one of the pioneers of historical writing, although his narratives still included personal perspectives. Meanwhile, later historians such as Thucydides and Xenophon began to apply more objective methods through source criticism, fact verification, and careful historical narration. These developments later became an important foundation for the emergence of modern history as an academic discipline.<\/span><\/p><\/figure>

Following the presentation, the event continued with an interactive question-and-answer session. Participants raised various questions related to history, literature, the development of the Greek language, and its relevance to the understanding of civilization and knowledge. The questions were answered comprehensively by Ambassador Michalopoulos, enriching participants\u2019 understanding of the relationship between language, history, and culture.<\/span><\/p>

Through this public lecture, FISH UNJ reaffirmed the importance of cross-cultural learning as part of higher education that is open, inclusive, and globally oriented. The activity is expected to broaden students\u2019 understanding of the historical development of the Greek language, strengthen intercultural awareness within the university environment, and encourage students to view language and literature as gateways to understanding human civilization (CKG & ZR).<\/span><\/p>
