After graduating from Harvard in he entered for a travelling fellowship in Athensand his future life in Greece was decided by chance when he was successful; as he said "the award After a month spent on Paros helping Greek-American friends with the grape-harvest, Andrews arrived in the autumn of at the American School of Classical Studies at Athens. It was a time of civil warthe rate of inflation was high and the Greek people were suffering extreme hardship. He was unfortunate and suffered from an "obscure nervous disorder," which turned out to be epilepsy, and spent much of his first winter in a miserable draughty room. Travel on the mainland was severely restricted; a permit was needed to travel more than a few miles from Athens. It could also be dangerous, for a few days after the students had visited Mycenae Kenneth Matthewsan English journalist, was kidnapped there; some travellers were unlucky, and George Polka US reporter, was captured in the mountains and his body was washed up soon afterwards near Salonika. After a disappointing stay in Flight of Ikaros: Travels in Greece During the Civil War Andrews was preparing to leave when he was offered a Fulbright Fellowship to stay and carry out a study of the castles and fortifications built by various invaders in the Peloponnese. This offered a field unresearched by others and the freedom to travel alone, and so he accepted with delight.

Back in Greece Kevin Andrews's next publication Athens was published in It was a counterblast against a westernized Greece which had been sanitized for the tourist. Protest had to be guarded and he waited until the departure of the Junta in before plain writing about political matters was possible.

  • The Gordian Knot: American and British Policy Concerning the Cyprus Issue: 1952-1974
    THE GORDIAN KNOT: AMERICAN AND BRITISH POLICY CONCERNING THE CYPRUS ISSUE: 1952-1974 Michael M. Carver A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of The requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2006 Committee: Dr. Douglas J. Forsyth, Advisor Dr. Gary R. Hess ii ABSTRACT Douglas J. Forsyth, Advisor This study examines the role of both the United States and Great Britain during a series of crises that plagued Cyprus from the mid 1950s until the 1974 invasion by Turkey that led to the takeover of approximately one-third of the island and its partition. Initially an ancient Greek colony, Cyprus was conquered by the Ottoman Empire in the late 16th century, which allowed the native peoples to take part in the island’s governance. But the idea of Cyprus’ reunification with the Greek mainland, known as enosis, remained a significant tenet to most Greek-Cypriots. The movement to make enosis a reality gained strength following the island’s occupation in 1878 by Great Britain. Cyprus was integrated into the British imperialist agenda until the end of the Second World War when American and Soviet hegemony supplanted European colonialism. Beginning in 1955, Cyprus became a battleground between British officials and terrorists of the pro-enosis EOKA group until 1959 when the independence of Cyprus was negotiated between Britain and the governments of Greece and Turkey. The United States remained largely absent during this period, but during the 1960s and 1970s came to play an increasingly assertive role whenever intercommunal fighting between the Greek and Turkish-Cypriot populations threatened to spill over into Greece and Turkey, and endanger the southeastern flank of NATO.

  • Louis Macneice Arrived in Athens in January 1950 to Take the Post of Director of the British Institute. Only a Year After the En
    CHAPTER 7 AN ISLAND TEMPERAMENT Louis MacNeice arrived in Athens in January 1950 to take the post of Director of the British Institute. Only a year after the end of the Greek Civil War (1943-49), the country was entering a post-war period of new tensions stigmatized by the recent political developments. MacNeice was also a radio practitioner and his work at the Features Department of the BBC from 1941 initially involved propaganda while, Richard Danson Brown argues, his commitment to the Allied cause entailed choosing between Ireland and England and “Ireland’s neutrality affronted his increasingly dualistic interpretation of the War”.1 In an article near the close of 1945 he regarded the end of the war, Peter McDonald notes, “as an important starting-point for new developments, a necessary humbling of the 1930s generation, whose form of pride ha[d] been changed by events”.2 The “successful combination of metaphysics with discursive form” which, McDonald argues, MacNeice professed to support in the 1945 article, mapped out his concerns for the next eight years and lay behind poems like Ten 1 Richard Danson Brown, “Neutrality and Commitment: MacNeice, Yeats, Ireland and the Second World War”, Journal of Modern Literature, XXVIII/3 (Spring 2005), 122. For MacNeice’s work at the BBC, see Barbara Coulton, Louis MacNeice in the BBC, London: Faber and Faber, 1980, 52-60. In May 1941 MacNeice joined the Drama and Features Department of the BBC for a career that lasted until his death in 1963: “Wartime features, presenting civilized values, attacking the threat of tyranny and oppression, celebrating the victories of allies, alternated with plays on historical or literary themes.” See also Barbara Coulton, “An Air-Borne Bard”, The Honest Ulsterman, LXXIII (September 1983), 77-78 and A Bibliography of the Works of Louis MacNeice, eds C.M.

  • 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.

    HESPERIA 69, 2000 PY LO S R E G I O NAL Pages 343-380 A RC H ALEOLOCGI CAL PROJECT, PART 111 SIR WILLIAM GELL'S ITINERARY IN THE PYLIA AND REGIONAL LANDSCAPES IN THE MOREA IN THE SECOND OTTOMAN PERIOD ABSTRACT This article previewsthe study of the Second Ottoman period (1715-1821) by members of the Pylos Regional Archaeological Project. By closely com- paring Sir William Gell's apparently dispassionate descriptions of the Navarino Bay areawith other documentaryand archaeologicaldata, we sug- gest that reconstruction of settlement and land use relying solely on Gell's descriptions can result in misrepresentation.This conclusion has implica- tions for modern Greek social and economic history, since the image that Gell sketches appearsto support a commonly held belief that settlement dur- ing Ottoman occupationwas concentratedin more mountainous areas,while the lowlands were largelydevoid of permanent habitation. Since the earliest days of regional archaeological surveys in Greece, the study of the periods of Ottoman occupation has proven frustrating.' For most earlier periods, artifact typologies-based on chipped stone or ce- ramics-are sufficiently well understood to allow surface remains found by means of intensive survey to be dated, sometimes with great precision. Pottery from the times of Turkish domination, on the other hand, is rela- tively poorly understood, particularly for the 18th and early 19th centu- ries, and can generally be assigned only to broad chronological parameters. 1.
