Please feel free to ask for particulars and/or additional photographs. . Patroklos StavrouPhilologist, historian, scholar, researcher, author, and publisher, Dr Patroclos Stavrou has served as Under Secretary to the President of the Republic of Cyprus for thirty continuous years (1963-1993), a unique case in the history of the government of Cyprus. He has served under four Presidents, starting with the founder of the Republic of Cyprus and its first President, Archbishop Makarios, with whom he worked closely for twenty seven years. Born in 1933, in Nicosia, and originally from Mitsero Village of the Nicosia district, he graduated from the Pancyprian Gymnasium in 1951. He then went to Greece to study at the University of Athens, School of Philosophy, on a scholarship granted by Archbishop Makarios. During his studies in Athens, he was very active in the promotion of his country's rights for self-determination and liberation from the British colonial rule. He served as President of the "Platon" Student Association of the School of Philosophy of the University of Athens, the All-student Committee for the Cypriot Struggle, the Administrative Associations Committee of the University of Athens, and the National Student Association of Cypriots. During the years 1957-1960 he served as Executive Secretary of the Archbishop Makarios in Athens and Nicosia. On August 16, 1960, after a lengthy, yet successful anti-colonial struggle, Cyprus gained its independence. That same year, Patroclos Stavrou was appointed Director of the Office of the President. In 1963, he became Under-Secretary to the President of the Republic of Cyprus (the equivalent of Secretary of State) and remained in office until June 1993. Within his official capacity, he visited numerous countries and participated in political and cultural International Conferences, and International Conventions. He attended General Assembly Sessions of the United Nations as member of the Cypriot delegation, Summits of the Non-Aligned Nations Movement, and Heads of State Conventions of the Commonwealth of Nations. Within the framework of his official duties, Patroclos Stavrou has always worked toward the cultural development of Cyprus, which he promoted, not as a land of conflicts, but as a cradle of Culture and the Arts. His book Cyprus, The Sweet Land (published in English and German) epitomizes the history and culture of Cyprus, illustrating its beauty, hospitality and luminous landscapes. Patroclos Stavrou s personal commitment to literature was never hindered by his challenging governmental responsibilities. The Academy of Athens in 1969 awarded him for his book entitled: 1 which was the culmination of his extensive study on the work of Kostis Palamas, the national poet of Greece and Hellenism. He was, in fact, the first Cypriot to ever have been awarded by the Academy of Athens until that time. Furthermore, he has published Captain P. S. Le Geyt s book entitled: Makarios in Exile. He wrote and published the "Catalogue of Paintings, Artifacts and Historical Documents" of the Holy Archbishopric of Cyprus, and he has co-translated the two-volume Historical Album of the Greek War of Independence 1821: An Illustrated Chronicle, also awarded by the Academy of Athens.
