摘要

In Göttingen, “a place of an international Congress of Mathematicians in permanent session,” (Carathéodory, Munich–Augsburger Abendzeitung Nr. 181, V, p. 99, 1957) as Constantin Carathéodory characterized it, some Greek mathematicians had the privilege to attend Klein’s lectures. In this article, we look at the four Greek mathematicians who were connected to Felix Klein in different ways: Cyparissos Stéphanos did not study with Klein, but was the first to attempt to publish the Erlangen programme in a French translation; Athanasios Karagiannides [Carajiannides] took part in Klein’s lectures in Göttingen, but was unable to appreciate non-Euclidean geometry; Nikolaos Hatzidakis also studied under Klein in Göttingen and benefited from his courses; and finally Carathéodory, who was unanimously appointed Klein’s successor to the chair at the University of Göttingen on 1 April 1913. New sources are used, in particular letters from these Greek mathematicians to Felix Klein.
