Narratives of the Greek Civil War: Memory and Political Identities as Public History

With Anastasia Christou & Raymondos Alvanos

This proposal brings together an established team of community researchers and builds on interdisciplinary pilot research to expand a corpus of generational life histories of the Greek Civil War. Apart from securing a vital set of testimonials for posterity from first-generation survivors who are now in their late 80s and 90s, this data set will be supplemented by narratives from subsequent generations and comparative sources from participants residing in other regions of historical interest (Skopje, North Macedonia).
