San Francisco Prometheus Articles

Newspaper articles regarding St. Sophia, Annunciation, Holy Trinity, San Francisco Greek Community, and events in Greece are listed here.

(A note regarding our research: Prometheus was a "Greek language" newspaper published in San Francisco from 1911 to 1935. Prometheus maintained an office at 725 Harrison Street in San Francisco. The newspaper was a partnership between Alexander Pavellas and George Pappageorge-Palladius. In 1925, they had a circulation of 12,000.

In addition, Prometheus published books profiling Greek families coming to the United States. Many of these publications still exist today, and fortunately are available to those researching the Greek community.

All of these articles are in Greek. We decided not to translate them as to preserve the original meaning. During this period, Greeks wrote in "katherevousa", simply meaning a more difficult form of modern Greek. The Greek used on the internet is "demotiki" and it is commonly referred to as modern Greek. Only three types of accents are used. These articles had to be presented in demotiki so they can presented on the internet.

We are grateful to the Athenagoras Institute for their assistance in making this section become a reality. If you need assistance with setting your computer for Greek, please review this page.)
