Spyridon Lambros orLampros (Greek:Σπυρίδων Λάμπρος; 8 April 1851–1919) was a Greek history professor and brieflyPrime Minister of Greece during theNational Schism.

He was born inCorfu in 1851 and was educated inLondon,Paris andVienna, studyinghistory. His father, Pavlos Lambros, was anAromanian (Vlach) fromKalarrytes inEpirus,^[1] meaning that Lambros was of Aromanian origin himself.^[2]

In 1890, he joined the faculty of theUniversity of Athens and taught history and ancient literature. He becameProvost of the university in 1893, serving in that capacity twice, 1893–1894 and 1912–1913.

After 1903, Lambros started an academic movement calledNeos Hellenomnemon (Νέος Ἑλληνομνήμων) which studied the scientific and philosophical developments of the Greek-speaking world during theByzantine andOttoman eras.

In October 1916 with Greece in the midst of theNational Schism and under two governments (Eleftherios Venizelos inThessaloniki andKing Constantine inAthens), the formerlyLiberal (and associated with Venizelos) Lambros accepted the King's commission to form a government in Athens. Eventually,riots took place in Athens (theNoemvriana), for which Lambros was judged responsible due to mis-management. He resigned as Prime Minister. After theexile of the king in summer 1917, Lambros was put ininternal exile by theVenizelists, inHydra andSkopelos.

He died in Skopelos on 23 July 1919.^[3]

His daughter,Lina Tsaldari, was elected toParliament in 1956 and became the first woman in the Greek Cabinet as Minister of Social Welfare.
