This publication contains the Proceedings of the One Day Conference under the same title which took place at the Benaki Museum (November 19, 2004), dedicated to the study of aspects of the phenomenon of benefaction. Contributions by participants attempt to gather the data into topics, as well as to record contemporary questions and attempt to create new methodological principles for the study of a phenomenon which was responsible, to a very great extent, for creating the face of Modern day Greece.
