A la mémoire de ma tante Maria, qui a su résister « Que croyez-vous que soit un artiste? Un imbécile qui n’a que des yeux s’il est peintre, des oreilles s’il est musicien, ou une lyre à tous les étages du cœur s’il est poète, ou même, s’il est boxeur, seulement des muscles ? Bien au contraire, il est en même temps un être politique, constamment en éveil devant les déchirants, ardents ou doux événements du monde, se façonnant de toute pièce à leur image. Comment serait-il possible de se désintéresser des hommes et, en vertu de quelle nonchalance ivoirine, de se détacher d’une vie qu’ils vous apportent si copieusement ? Non, la peinture n’est pas faite pour décorer les appartements.

Somut ve somut olmayan kültürel mirasların yer edindiği müzeler toplumun ortak belleğini de yansıtır. Müzeler birer bellek mekânı olarak kurgulandığında, mekânın belleğini de aktarmaları beklenir. Yaşadıkları alanlara kendilerine özgü özellikleri yansıtan insan topluluklarının geniş kitleler halinde barındığı kentler, çok kültürlü ve çoksesli ortamlar olarak var olmaya devam etmektedirler. Kentlerin içinde yer alan müzeler ise, çoğu zaman, ortaklaşa bir biçimde oluşturulmuş bu kültürü ve kentsel kimliği yansıtmakla yükümlü olmuşlardır. Müzenin temsil ettiği değerler, bulundukları mekânın dışında da yer almaktadır. Bu nedenle günümüz müzeleri, sadece kendilerine tanımlanmış sınırlı alanlarda varlığını sürdürmeyi değil, bu alanları esneterek daha geniş bir mekânsal anlatıyı ele almayı hedeflemektedir. Bu şekilde müzeler sadece toplumu değil, toplumun şekillendirdiği yaşam alanlarını ve bu alanların kimliğini de yansıtma görevini üstlenmiş olmaktadır.

    From the first breath all the way to adulthood… 1984-2004 Front page cover: “Runners”, painter Dimitris Nalmpantis Department of Physical Education & Sport Science Democritus University of Thrace From the first breath all the way to adulthood… 1984-2004 ∫omotini 2005 WORKING TEAM Coordinator: Costa George, Associate Professor Members: Douda Helen, Assistant Professor Malliou Vivian, Assistant Professor Papadimitriou Katerina, Lecturer Kouli Olga, Instructor P/D 407 Kioumourtzoglou Efthimis, Professor Translation: Costa George, Associate Professor In the place of introduction When the Department of Physical Education and Sport Science in the Democritus University of Thrace started, some laughed, some worried and some did not care… Five years later and… unfortunately we “disappointed” every- body. To the ironic comments (“We do not believe that you will start a University Department up there”) we responded with organiza- tion, efficiency and work. The result: a Department with its own facilities was born and has entered its adulthood with no problems. To the threat (“They will take advantage of us, they will take our jobs, our funds, our privileges”) we responded with self man- agement, planning, free development in academic and social level of each faculty member and most important with unity while we fought against real but not unsolved problems. The result: A Department with its own character which wants discussion and cooperation, but it does not "borrow" administrative methods nor educa- tion systems. To people’s indifference (“Why should we care about those unimportant, country, marginal types”) we responded with actions, we announced our problems and touched the public. The result: A Department which quickly became well known, and many want to visit, to teach in, even more to learn from the calm and serene atmosphere that it has developed.

  • Children of the Dictatorship
    Children of the Dictatorship Student Resistance, Cultural Politics, and the “Long 1960s” in Greece Kostis Kornetis berghahn N E W Y O R K • O X F O R D www.berghahnbooks.com Chapter 4 Cultural Warfare Chapter 4 engages with the dialectical relationship between culture and poli- tics. As ideological reasons alone do not account for the creation of the Greek student movement, the chapter explores the roots of its cultural background, as well as the ways in which the latter in turn reinforced student combative- ness. It examines new trends in cinema, theater, music, aesthetics, and ev- eryday life in an attempt to explain how new cultural identities were shaped. It turns to alternative forms of culture that were created in juxtaposition to the Junta with an interest in how several countercultural elements acquired political signifi cance over time. Th is section also addresses the role of female students in both the student body in general and in the movement in par- ticular, in an attempt to account for continuities and ruptures with the past. Lastly, references are made to the contested issue of a belated “sexual revolu- tion” and private going public. Media and Publishing Strategies Just like any other authoritarian regime the Colonels tried to achieve near complete control of the mass media in order to ensure an informational mo- nopoly. Preventive censorship was in operation up to 1969, and no printed document could circulate without the authorization of the Censorship Of- fi ce. Th is created a vacuum of alternative information and intellectual culti- vation, as the heavy weight of voicing opposition fell on clandestine papers.

  • Ctures Intellectuelles” in Information Sur Les Sciences Sociales
    APOSTOLOS BBNATSIS GREIMAS’ SEMIOTIC SQUARE AND MODERN GREEK LITERATURE It is not of course within my intentions to present a theoretical paper about the origins of the semiotic square. I am more interested in the application of this concept which was introduced by Greimas and Rastier. Nevertheless I think that it is worth our while to take a look at the (past. In his renowned article «Les jeux des contraintes semiotiques» A. J. Greimas remarks: The preceding model is simply a reworked formulation of the one formerly proposed by the author in Semantique structu- rale. This new presentation makes it possible to compare the model to Robert Blanche’s logical hexagon (see Claude Chabrol, "Stru­ ctures intellectuelles” in Information sur les Sciences sociales, 1957, VI - 5) as well as to the structures called the Klein group in mathematics and the Piaget group in psychology. As we see there is no allusion to ancient Greek sources here. Mau- ricio Beuchot compares A. J. Greimas’ semiotic square to the semiotic square that appears in several writings attributed to Saint Anselm of Canterbury (1033 -1109) and looks into the convergences and dive­ rgences between the two writers. In fact, he cites Aristotle’s work On Interpretation, but does not associate it directly with the semiotic square. He emphasises Saint Anselm’s contribution in connection with the Greimasian semiotic square. I think, though, that we should begin from the following text: Now these terms are related to one another as follows. Let A stand for "to be good”, B for "not to be good”, C for "to be not - good” (this falls under B) and D for "not to be not good” (this falls under A).
