Albanian Families' History and Heritage Making at the Crossroads of New
Voicing the stories of the excluded: Albanian families’ history and heritage making at the crossroads of new and old homes Eleni Vomvyla UCL Institute of Archaeology Thesis submitted for the award of Doctor in Philosophy in Cultural Heritage 2013 Declaration of originality I, Eleni Vomvyla confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signature 2 To the five Albanian families for opening their homes and sharing their stories with me. 3 Abstract My research explores the dialectical relationship between identity and the conceptualisation/creation of history and heritage in migration by studying a socially excluded group in Greece, that of Albanian families. Even though the Albanian community has more than twenty years of presence in the country, its stories, often invested with otherness, remain hidden in the Greek ‘mono-cultural’ landscape. In opposition to these stigmatising discourses, my study draws on movements democratising the past and calling for engagements from below by endorsing the socially constructed nature of identity and the denationalisation of memory. A nine-month fieldwork with five Albanian families took place in their domestic and neighbourhood settings in the areas of Athens and Piraeus. Based on critical ethnography, data collection was derived from participant observation, conversational interviews and participatory techniques. From an individual and family group point of view the notion of habitus led to diverse conceptions of ethnic identity, taking transnational dimensions in families’ literal and metaphorical back- and-forth movements between Greece and Albania. -

Modern Greek Studies in the 21St Century
Modern Greek Studies in the 21st Century Panel 1. Elsewheres. Towards less (Pen)insular Modern Greek Studies Georgios Tsagdis (University of Westminster / Leiden University) The 'Elsewheres' of Modern Greek Literature By focusing on one of the most famous poems, from one of the most canonical authors of modern Greek literature, I wish to unravel the problematic of the 'elsewhere'. Cavafy's God Abandons Antony, speaks of emigration, yet in an uncanny reversal it is the city, rather than the person, that emigrates. This 'fleeing of the city', means death, yet it is not only the death of the individual, but the death of an era, of a whole world in demise. Kavafis, who embodies the cultural 'elsewhere' par excellence of modern Greek literature, might enable us orient in a literary and theoretical landscape where everywhere is elsewhere. Alexis Radisoglou (Durham University) Eurozone(s): On Articulating Europe and the Case of Greece Drawing on a larger research project on cultural constructions of a shared and divided sense of ‘Europeanness’, my paper seeks to analyze the ways in which contemporary fiction narrates Europe as a precarious domain for human praxis and political agency. Using Angela Dimitrakaki’s novel Αεροπλάστ (Aeroplast, 2015) as a case study, I focus both on the instantiation of a transnational territoriality in such texts and on their critical negotiation of the question of the possible ‘foundations’ of a shared European imaginary, highlighting different—often highly contentious—forms of contact, transfer and exchange within a plural Europe that transcends the narrowly economistic parameters and unequal power dynamics of the so-called ‘Eurozone’. -

(Re)Ciphering Nations: Greece As a Constructed Illegibility in Odysseas Elytis’S Poetry
Journal of Literature and Art Studies, ISSN 2159-5836 January 2014, Vol. 4, No. 1, 25-33 D DAVID PUBLISHING (Re)Ciphering Nations: Greece as a Constructed Illegibility in Odysseas Elytis’s Poetry Álvaro García Marín Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, Madrid, Spain In their attempt to construct their identity in opposition to European one, non-Western new nations with alphabets such as Greek, Hebrew, or Cyrillic, used them as a way of emphasizing difference, and thus provide symbolic spaces for the newborn nations. The illegibility of these alphabets for Western people, along with the ancient prestige of at least Hebrew and Greek, fostered the illusion of temporal continuity and provided legitimacy to their atomization projects. Odysseas Elytis (1911-1996), Nobel Prize for Literature winner in 1979 and the last national poet of Greece, blends this old tendency in Greek culture and the broader claim of modern European poets for the essential autonomy of art and literature. His efforts to reinforce the walls separating Greece from Latin-Western culture by reinforcing the illegibility of both Greek and poetic idioms, aim at constructing a more essential Greece, founded on aesthetics, language, and writing instead of politics, institutions, or geographic borders. In this paper, engaging mainly in the fields of literary and postcolonial studies, the author intends to analyze the mechanisms by which language, writing, or literature can be used to (re)cipher once again the already exclusive concept of nation, and thus to undermine every possibility of deciphering and translatability. He concludes that in “conceptually colonized” nations such as Greece, this process implies and anticolonial movement still caught nevertheless in a colonial discursivity. -

Greece in Modern Times (An Annotated Bibliography of Works Published in English in 22 Academic Disciplines During the Twentieth Century)
Published in: S. Constantinidis (ed.) Greece in Modern Times (An Annotated Bibliography of Works Published in English in 22 Academic Disciplines During the Twentieth Century). Lanham, MD: Scarecrow Press (1999), pp. 441-474. Selected Titles on Language and Linguistics Prepared by Brian D. Joseph, The Ohio State University INTRODUCTION This bibliography as a whole has as its main focus Greece of the twentieth century. As far as the Greek language and its study, i.e. the field of Greek linguistics, are concerned, however, there is nothing particularly special about the twentieth century. To be sure, the current century has witnessed a number of changes in the Greek language, mostly in the area of its lexical resources as Greek has borrowed, adapted, and absorbed large numbers first of French words and more recently of English words. However, the essential character of Modern Greek, as opposed to significantly earlier stages of the language such as the Greek of the New Testament or Ancient Greek, was formed by no later than the seventeenth century, and most likely even earlier. In surveying the literature produced over the past forty to sixty years on Modern Greek per se, therefore, one must necessarily take into account works that deal with pre-twentieth century Greek. Indeed, it can be argued that Modern Greek is closer structurally to early Post-Classical Greek than the latter is to Classical Greek. Thus some works dealing with Post-Classical Greek, especially as it illuminates the nature of the modern language — regional dialect variants included — have been selected for this bibliography, as have a few general overviews of the history of Greek from Classical or even pre-Classical times to the present. -
Re-Imagining the Past Antiquity and Modern Greek Culture ABSTRACTS in ALPHABETICAL ORDER
Re-imagining the Past Antiquity and Modern Greek Culture ABSTRACTS IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER Effie F. Athanassopoulos [email protected] Classical vs. Byzantine pasts in the nineteenth century: Athenian monuments and archaeological practice This paper examines the changing role of Byzantium in the Greek national narrative of the nineteenth century and its relation to archaeological practice. The Modern Greek state, influenced by the European admiration for classical Greece, chose to emphasize cultural continuity with the classical past. In contrast, Byzantium was viewed as a long dark age, an alien past, which interfered with the efforts of the re- born state to establish an unbroken link with classical antiquity. Thus, the ‘purification’ of Athens was carried out by archaeologists who shared these views and felt little sympathy for the material remains of the Byzantine era. Concern for the protection of the Byzantine monuments was slow to develop. It went hand in hand with the re-discovery and rehabilitation of Byzantium, a slow process which gained momentum in the 1850s with the work of Zambelios and Paparrigopoulos . The inclusion of Byzantium into the national narrative influenced the direction of Greek archaeology which gradually began to lose its exclusive classical emphasis. Still, the demolition of medieval structures such as the Frankish tower at the Propylaia (1875) did not stop. However, there was considerable opposition and the dismantling of the tower sparked an intense debate, a debate which will be examined here in some detail. A few years later, the Christian Archaeological Society was established, and the programmatic destruction of the remains of Medieval Greece gradually came to an end.
