According to all indications, E.I. Frangudis translated extracts from Th. Gautier's travel book on Constantinople (1853), which were published anonymously in the periodical Thelxinoe (1857) without any mention of the identity of the French text. However, Frangudis' version was not simply a translation. He interfered with the French text, deleted literary and historical references that related to western civilazation, condensed excerpts and added others, or differentiated judgments and oriental images the French traveller had about the world of East. In other words, he showed a keen interest in adjusting the western viewpoint to the oriental and, in particular, the Greek perception.
