Email this article Atene, 1940-1943: italiani e greci nei Quaderni di Ghiorgos Theotokàs
Abstract
Born and raised in Constantinople, in 1922 Ghiorgos Theotokàs moves to Athens to study Law. After his graduation, he spends two years between Paris and London to complete his education. Afterwards, he returns to Greece and leads a group of young intellectuals who try to renovate the cultural environment in Greece during the years after the Asia Minor campaign and the defeat of Greece after the Greco-Turkish war (1922). Theotokàs writes essays, articles and novels, but his diaries are very important sources not only about Theotokàs’ personal life, but also about the political and cultural climate of those times. Reading through the Τετράδια Ημερολογίου (1939-1953) we can learn a lot of information about the social, political, and cultural aspects of Greece and about the relations between Greeks and Italians after the fascist invasion.
