Description

The book "Notes for Isabella" is the true story of a woman, daughter and wife of significant political figures of the Ionian State, during British Protection, who was born, raised, and lived with the tradition of the unique Ionian cultivation.

The birth of parliamentarism in the Ionian Islands, the transformation of Greek identity into national passion, and the sweeping process of assimilation into the rest of Greece are the significant events of the world, at the center of which she lived, loved, and was passionately loved.

When her story has been forgotten, her home retains her memory. With the semiotic language of old houses, it reveals and documents daily life in Corfu and Cephalonia during the years when the Ionian Islands experienced the most critical turning point in their history.

The fascinating life of Corfiot Isabella Voulgari is part of the radiant political and cultural fabric that connects the past with the present and integrates local events into a broader Greek social history.

The word "Notes" in the title of the book means "musical notes" in today's terminology, but it also means "notes - information" in the Corfiot dialect. It is used here with both meanings.
