Summary: Since the onset of Ottoman rule, but more especially from the mid-18th century, the Archbishops of autocephalous Cypriot Orthodox Church have wielded a great deal of political power. Most people of a certain age will remember the bearded monk who became a Greek nationalist politician and the first President of the Republic of Cyprus in 1960, Archbishop Makarious III. Indeed his presence at Madame Tussaud's is a reminder of his stature. But were all Cypriot archbishops such political and powerful Greek nationalists? This study offers valuable historical and political insights into the phenomenon. -- Book cover.
