Aspects of Identity & Nationhood: Commemorating, Representing & Replicating The Greek Maritime Past
Eleni Stefanou (University of Aegean, Greece)
This paper’s objective is to examine the ideological parameters which govern the Greek maritime heritage representations in connection to the underpinning of narratives about modern Greek national identity. To achieve that, this paper critically investigates selected Greek maritime museum displays, naval commemorative ceremonies, one naval-battle re-enactment, and ancient ship reconstructions.
