Roman ve Kanıtsal Anlatımda Yunan İç Savaşı: The Mission Box ve The Double Book

Yunan İç Savaşını 1946-1949 temporal düzlemin merkezine oturtan, Aris Alexandrou’nun roman kategorisine giren The Mission Box adlı eseri ile Stamatia Barbatsi ve Tassoula Derveniotou’nun tarihsel anlatım çerçevesinde kanıtsal bir açıklama niteliğindeki The Double Book adlı kitabı, eleştirel bağlamda İç Savaş söyleminin ayrışık parçaları olarak ele alınmıştır. Her iki metnin biçimsel ve içerik çözümlemeleri, ideoloji ve tarihe ilişkin geniş kapsamlı konular bağlamında yapılmıştır. Çalışmada söz konusu iki metnin tartışmalı bir ulusal geçmişe odaklanan bellek politikaları içindeki konumu değerlendirilmiştir.

The Greek Civil War in Fiction and Testimony: The Mission Box and the Double Book

Placing in the epicenter of the temporal horizon the Greek Civil War 1946 – 1949 , the Mission Box by Aris Alexandrou and The Double Book by Stamatia Barbatsi & Tassoula Derveniotou are critically evaluated as differential components of the Civil War discourse, the former falling within the category of fiction and the latter constituting a testimonial account framed by historical exposition. The formal and content analysis of the two texts is informed by wider considerations, pertaining to issues of ideology and history, judging their positionality in the politics of memory focusing on a disputed national past.
