Summary/Abstract: The study is dedicated to an important and almost unknown instance from the development of the Greek public thinking in the 20th century. The contemporary Greek historian Philipos lliou reports and subjects to comprehensive analysis the inquiry devised by the Greek intellectual Dimitris Glinos on Greek school literature with reference to the notion reflected in it of Greece's neighbouring peoples. The inquiry is connected with the efforts of the "Carnegie Endowment" international organization to reveal the roots of World War I and the Balkan Wars and the elimination of hostility between the nations. The data in the article shed light on the complex contradictory road covered by the Greek intelligentsia in the 20th century in an atmosphere of domination of nationalism in the life of the Balkans. The pieces of information about the image of the Bulgarian in Greek school literature are interesting; they reflected the evolution of Bulgarian-Greek relations in the first decades of the 20th century. Ph. lliou pays particular attention to the sober attitude of Glinos to the problems of nationalism.
