M.A.

The evidence that the history provides us with, indisputably indicates that the city of Ioannina was always a meeting place, sometimes under the influence of favourable conditions and other times not, for philosophical, scientific and theological investigations. The city has been a place of cohabitation of the three largest religions of the world, Christianity, Judaism and Islam. The geographical position of Ioannina and Epirus in general, being opposite the island of Kerkyra (Corfu) and more specifically the city of Kerkyra that was the capital city of the then Venetian occupied Eptanisa (Ionian Islands), the close proximity to the important ports of Preveza and Parga and the short distance of these from Italy favoured the economic development of the city and transformed it into one of the most significant transit centres of the Ottoman empire. Many Ioannites (residents of Ioannina) started to emigrate during the beginning of the 17th century and the years and centuries following. They generally emigrated to the shores of the Adriatic and Italy, and also to the states adjoining the Danube River (Romania and Moldavia), southern Russia and central Europe, in search of a more prosperous future and in order to satisfy their educational improvement. This mass emigration of the Ioannites had as a result a capital influx into the city, either in the form of bequests or grants, which could meet the daily or educational needs of the Ioannites, At the same time community development takes place and Local Government is established in Ioannina with local leaders. Ecclesiastical and school committees are also established. Home industries are established in the manufacture of furs, leather craft, candlestick making, silver crafting, embroidery and hand crafts in general. The city of Ioannina offered the enslaved Greeks the scope, bounds and conditions for their spiritual recovery and the restoration of their political reestablishment. The Epirotes, and more specifically the Ioannites, donors, teachers and instructors were the contributors to this recovery, and with their actions they rendered Epirus a land of virtuous people. To these contributors we must add the leaders of the Klephtes and Armatoli that made their presence heard when the various revolutionary uprisings took place (D. Philosophos, Vlachavas, Katsadonis, the monk Samouil, etc.). From Epirus, as mentioned above, the first merchants set out, who became the healers and rejuvenators of the paideia and became national benefactors. Indeed, the development of the paideia is owed to the initiative and the actions of the Ioannites merchants, bankers and landowners that lived abroad. Some of these Ioannites were Leodarides, Gioumas, Tsigaras, Hieromnimones, Maroutsides, Karayiannides, Dobolis, Tsouflis, Hatjikonstas, Staurou, Efthymiou, Kaplanis, Zosimades, Tositsides, Averof, Stournaras, Manthos and Georgios Rizaris, and others. The schools of Ioannina, and the tireless teachers, that contributed decisively to the recovery of «a nation whose rights were infringed…

▼ The European sovereign debt crisis started. in 2008 with the collapse of Iceland's banking system. Subsequently, several European countries faced the implosion of financial institutions, high government debt and rapidly rising bond yield spreads in government securities. In this context, Greece is an example of a country whose government debt is a matter of grave concern since it has received the second bailout but still threatens to default. This is ironic since a developed economy like Greece is considered to aide developing economies. The main aim of this dissertation is to conduct an econometric analysis of the determinants of the Greek sovereign debt crisis while the secondary aim is an extensive literature review of the Eurozone sovereign debt crisis. Regarding the former aim, the variables selected include the government deficit, current account balance, inflation, gross savings and general government debt of Greece. This annual data (from 1976 to 2010) was collected from the World Development Indicators, European Commission data base and the International Monetary Fund. The Vector Error Correction Model framework was used to estimate our model. Also, the Granger causality analysis helped to identify the direction of causation. Furthermore, the Variance Decomposition and the Generalized Impulse Response Function were employed to analyze the shocks of all our variables on each other. Finally, for the latter aim, we critically review the evolution, causes, consequences and cures of the Eurozone sovereign debt crisis and then formulate some suggestions on how to mitigate the effects of this crisis. The results of the econometric analysis show that there is a significant negative relationship between general government debt with government deficit and inflation. However, a significant positive relationship between general government debt and current account balance was found. There is an insignificant negative relationship between gross savings and general government debt. The past value of the general government debt and government deficit has the ability to determine the present value of inflation; and in turn, pass value of inflation, can predict the present value of current account balance and gross savings. Variation in most of our variables is highly explained by our variables itself, with the exception of current account balance where variation is explained mostly by general government debt. The response of general government debt to itself is positive. Gross government debt to government deficit and general government debt to current account balance is negative. General government debt to inflation is positive. A shock of gross government debt has an increasing negative effect on gross savings over the study period. Among the causes of the Eurozone sovereign debt crisis is the rapid growth of government debt levels, trade imbalances, monetary policy inflexibility, and loss of confidence. Consequences of this crisis involve disrupted bond markets and the banking sector,…

▼ Greece's difficulties are not new nor entirely Greek and they became acute, from time to time, as a result of unusual circumstances. Deep problems underlie the fluctuating currents of Greek history, and the Great Powers have been party to many of Greece's difficulties, while Greece's neighbors have been instruments of Great Power machtpolitik in the Balkans. Greece's tragedy has been fourfold: first, its territory occupies the peninsula which commands an arena of intensepolitical rivalry. Second, since its creation it has been a small and poor nation occupying a strategic geographic position. Third, Greek liberation was made possible by the aid of many Powers that continued to retain their "interest" in Greece. Lastly, Greek nationalism which found fertile soil in the "Great Idea" with the belief that for survival the little kingdom had to strengthen itself economically and politically by absorbing adjacent lands. These lands, however, more often than not, were inhabited predominantly by Greeks who were faced with absorption or annihilation by a reawakening of Slavic Balkan peoples or renascent Ottoman nationalism. This situation led to a fervent and natural desire for enosis by exohellenes and the historical anagke and almost religious passion felt by the Greek Government to effect a union so long sought after and for so long desired. From the outset the Greeks were caught between East and West, for Greece's independence and later the extension of its boundaries could be realized only at the expense of Turkey and the policies of Austro-Hungary and England. For Austria, a continental Power, this meant maintenance of Metternich's "consecrated structure"; for England, an insular Power, it meant maintenance of the integrity of the Ottoman Empire since its dissolution would not only disrupt the equilibrium of Europe but its dismemberment would remove the last substantial political bulwark to Russian expansion. It is not surprising that Castlereagh could set aside his doctrine of noninterference in the Greek issue since, as in the Lowlands, its application would have threatened British interests. At the same time, Greece could expect little from Russia, for concessions from that quarter, notwithstanding the Tsarist ruse of protecting co-religionists would be at the expense of PanSlavism and Tsarist expansion. Furthermore, being non "Catholic," Greece could expect no sympathy from Catholic powers. Finally, her early boundaries, like most boundaries in the Near East, reflected neither a political nor an economic necessity but were drawn to guarantee weakness and rivalry and became an object of power politics. This inherent situation has brought Greece periodic chastisements and unsolicited transgressions by the Great Powers with serious effects on her domestic life as well as her inter-national position. Historically, Austria-Hungary, England, France, and Germany, individually or in collusion, had prevented Russian domination of the Balkans and the Near East; but recent history proved more favorable to the Soviet Union…

▼ The polis is a unique ancient entity which most scholars argue about. What is it? How can we define it? How did it start? What sources are valid? Is it constant in different time periods? The polis, a newer and larger version of the oikos, is a settlement structure that is not fixed in its government or size. There are hundreds of poleis and they are located all over ancient Greece. The creation of the polis did not rely, as some scholars might argue, on any one factor but stability between many. The one thing that remains a constant between all poleis is “balance”. The polis represents a figurative and literal (in the case of physical structures) fulcrum that balances external and internal influences in order to facilitate growth and development. Physical structures, such as walls, extra-urban and urban sanctuaries, and harbors, create protection for the polis and its citizenry while also connecting them to local and foreign entities. Procedural laws, which were public and formal, create an equality between different levels of the citizenry while maintaining power for wealthy families. Early poetry of the Archaic period, archaeological surveys of the Bronze Age to the Classical period, Classical histories, and linguistic theories describe how the polis first began, what ideologies were initially emphasized, and how the polis, both physically and theoretically, interacted with other ancient entities. There are four types of poleis which corresponded to different time periods and definitions: “Homeric”, Archaic, Classical, and Aristotelian. Case studies of Athens, Corinth, Thebes, and Sparta illustrate a similar early development, but each maintains different governments. \t The polis is a textual, linguistic, physical and philosophical entity which has intrigued scholars for decades. It is only through a better understanding of its early development and concept of “balance,” as well as a comprehensive discussion of contemporary scholarship, that we will be able to fully comprehend and define a polis.

▼ The last decade has seen the emergence a body literature advocating an archaeological approach which is conscious of, and actively includes, the individuals and groups who are entangled in the processes of archaeological research and are connected to and draw meaning from the material remains of the past. This archaeological approach, widely known as Community Archaeology, has been promoted by many, who envision a socially responsible discipline and multivocal understanding of the past. Archaeological discourse in Greece, however, seems to remain fairly silent on the issue, despite growing indifference, suspicion, and even resentment and resistance by the Greek public towards the field. The context to why this had become the case lay with the construction of an idealized nation built upon the “golden age” of its classical past and a formation of homogenous perception of national identity which have subsequently led to the exclusion of entire periods of time, namely that of the Post-Medieval period and it’s alternating and overlapping Ottoman, Venetian, and Frankish rule, as well the arginalization of those whose lives and histories have straddle the borders of ethnic, national, linguistic and religious identities. Further the historical conservative nature of the development of the field of Greek archaeology coupled with archaeological practice in service to the state, and monopolized solely by archaeological values has served to distance the public from the past and its materials. The tides they are a changing however, and research in Greek prehistoric archaeology, the emergence of regional survey projects in Greece and developments in post-medieval research has made significant strides in shedding Greek Archaeologies long held approaches rooted in nineteenth century ideologies and classicism. Furthermore, the tensions building between public and archaeological officials are not going unnoticed and some authors are starting to highlight that it is time for archaeological practice in Greece to think about for whom their work is for. In search of a tangible manifestation of the academic murmurings an examination of the museum sphere was undertaken, looking at three different self-ascribed museum types: Archaeological, Byzantine, and Folk, in three different locations in Greece: Athens, Thessaloniki, and Nafplio. Based on the knowledge of the recent renovation and redisplay of a few I was curious to see what museological methods had been implemented and further the incorporation of local communities or other relevant stakeholder groups in either the newly renovated exhibits or current temporary exhibits of the time, indicating perhaps a shift in museum practice not yet analysed.

▼ The historical setting of the Hellenistic period in the Peloponnese has been covered in great detail in scholarly literature, as well as the scope of Hellenistic religion and the role of monumental temples during this period. However, the role of small extra-urban temples has been somewhat overlooked in favor of larger and more easily accessible temples within the city or predominant sanctuary. The Peloponnese is rich in such modest rural temples, all exhibiting architectural similarities which I will show point to not only a specific architectural style in this region but a multi-functional role of these small temples for the city and surrounding landscape. The overarching goal of the dissertation is to examine how the role of the pastoral temple contributed to the agenda of the city and community. This is the first comprehensive description, examination, and collection of these modest yet pivotal temples from the Hellenistic period in the Peloponnese. I posit that the built environments of the city and countryside functioned together, rather than in opposition to each other as is often suggested: the temples do not merely reflect the socio-political ideals and identity of the city, but actively participate in and shape these agendas. Some of these small temples were administered by the city state, but located outside the urban space and functioned as markers of expansion and territorial influence of the city and as regional centers for cults uniting the rustic population. Additionally, some sites, although being under administration of nearby city states, served to hold a stance of neutrality between extra-urban populations in instances of trade or for those seeking temporary asylum. In turn, what made these temples so critical to the rising poleis is that they bolstered civic identity, social cohesion and territorial integrity among a diverse constituency. In doing this, the rural sanctuaries engaged networks of community through already established ties of cult which was especially vital to the formation of major cities seeking to establish and legitimize their political position. The impressive result of these efforts was a common sense of history and community, strengthening the ethnos in these areas.

▼ Various academic authors have analysed the implementation, the causes and the impact of the permanent campaign strategy by political executives in presidential and parliamentary systems, notably the United States and United Kingdom. This study builds on this literature and extends the research on the permanent campaign in the European parliamentary majoritarian context by examining contemporary Greece as a national case study. In particular, the study addresses three questions. First, did contemporary Greek Prime Ministers adopt the permanent campaign strategy? Second, why did they do so? Third, what impact did the implementation of the permanent campaign have on their public approval? The research focuses on the cases of three successive Prime Ministers in Greece: Costas Simitis (1996–2004), Kostas Karamanlis (2004–2009) and George Papandreou (2009-2011). Simitis and Papandreou were leaders of the centre-left PASOK, while Karamanlis was the leader of the centre-right New Democracy. The study finds that all three Prime Ministers undertook the permanent campaign strategy in order to maintain public approval, aligning themselves with their British and American counterparts. They established new communication units within the primeministerial apparatus, consulted with communication professionals to form a coherent communication strategy, used private polling to shape political strategy, policy and presentation, used campaign-like messages as mottos to promote their policy plans and made public appearances to woo public opinion. In addition, the thesis indicates that the permanent campaign in Greece was a result of the modernisation of political communication due to political and technological developments, such as the decline of political parties, the rise of television and the proliferation of new political technologies that have appeared in other countries as well. However, the results drawn from the data analysis suggest that the 6 prime ministerial permanent campaign hardly affected the prime ministerial approval, confirming the findings of empirical studies in the US and the UK.

This dissertation investigates mobile cult statues and their reflection in Euripides’ Iphigeneia among the Taurians and the Helen. Chapter One deals with the physical evidence for small, mobile cult images: their traditional settings, contexts, and histories of exchange and movement. Chapter Two is a survey of the literary terms used to refer to cult images. The first part of chapter Three treats the evidence for “arriving” cult images in ritual festivals and processions. Using the Athenian tradition of the theft of the Palladion as a case study, the second part of the chapter analyzes the different ways a community could characterize this “original arrival.” Chapter Four presents an analysis of the different modalities of exchange which characterized the movement of cult statues. These images were objects manipulated by humans, and thus all possible activities associated with possessions (theft, exchange, permanent loss, or freely given gift) were capable of influencing their use. Chapter Five analyzes how these human situations influenced Euripides’ IT and the Helen. I argue that in the IT, Iphigenia, just like the “Bears” of the Arkteia, is dedication herself. As priestess of Artemis, she is a gift given to the goddess, and her movement reflects the traditional sequence of a dedicatory journey: travel, gift, and return. When Orestes steals her back from the Taurians his action reflects the traditional concerns surrounding a stolen cult object: the rights and comportment of marginalized strata of society. On the other hand, in the Helen, the existence of the ghostly eidôlon removes all authority and “truth” from the representation and locates it in Helen herself. The effect of this relocation results in a focus not on the dramatization of the exchange of cult images as in the IT (that is, dedication or theft), but on the “truth” of representation itself. This critique culminates in the escape of Menelaus and Helen from Egypt under cover of a false burial ceremony where the active participants are not dead but alive. The historical burial of Spartan kings involved – in certain circumstances – the use of processed images of the dead called eidôla. I argue that Menelaus’ status as a figure outside the Agiad and Eurypontid sphere of authority combined with the emphasis on the living authority of Helen implies a critique of the use of representation to create authority in Sparta.

▼ This thesis investigates the acceptability and efficacy of a brief universal preventive parenting intervention for child behavioural and emotional difficulties. The methodology included a systematic review, a literature review, a pilot randomised controlled trial and focus group discussions. The systematic review aimed to show whether behavioural and emotional difficulties are a significant problem in Greece. Greek children appeared to display high scores on, and prevalence of behavioural problems, compared to children from other countries. The results suggested that, based on parental reports, Greece seems to have a high prevalence in child behavioural and emotional difficulties. The literature review explored the effectiveness of universally delivered Triple P preventive interventions and identified research gaps. There was also insufficient evidence on the effectiveness of brief universal Triple P programmes to draw any definitive conclusions. No randomised trial had examined the short-term and long-term effectiveness of the Triple P brief universal interventions (Seminar Series). The pilot randomised trial explored the efficacy of the Triple P Seminar Series for the reduction of child behavioural and emotional difficulties. 124 parents were randomly allocated to receive three seminars on positive parenting, while parents in the control group received information on child development. There was a significant reduction in behavioural problems over time (primary outcome), and a reduction in parenting dysfunctional difficulties in the short-term. Parents gave positive feedback on the intervention indicating that overall it was acceptable, feasible, culturally relevant, and useful. Preliminary moderator analyses indicated that there were no moderator variables affecting the relation between group allocation and change in child disruptive scores. Preliminary mediator analyses suggested that a reduction in dysfunctional practices partially explained improvements in children's disruptive behaviours over time. Lastly, 46 parents of the intervention group shared their personal experiences regarding the Seminar Series during six focus groups. The facilitators of positive parenting were relevant to what they did before, during, and after their practices, while barriers included child, parent and external factors. The final conclusions after triangulation and the implications of this thesis for practice and further research were discussed.

▼ The thesis examines the religious topography of Arcadia through two particular aspects: the built and the natural landscape, and how each relates to human communities, their places of living, and their understanding of the world around. It relies on the assumption commonly made in the field that, since ritual practice was of prevalent importance for the Greeks, cult sites are the most important places for the communities, and therefore they can tell us a lot about the people who built, visited and looked after them. The first part rests on the acknowledgement that sanctuaries are places of interaction for a certain community of cult (which can but need not overlap with a given polis) and explores how they can be indicators of social change, defined here as responses to changes with large impact on the human milieu. These changes and their response articulated in sacred space are identified in four chapters. The first sets the stage and surveys the known sacred sites of Arcadia at the end of the Bronze Age and during the Early Iron Age. The second looks at how the building of temples after the eighth century indicates a significant change in the way communities were structured in Arcadia. The third looks at how Arcadian sanctuaries responded to the increased religious mobility of the Classical and Hellenistic period. Finally, chapter four evaluates the impact of the Roman conquest on Arcadian religious sites. The second part explores how myths and rationalising discourses allowed the Greeks to make sense of the salient characteristics and numen of their surrounding natural landscape. Each of the three chapters departs from a situation observed in Arcadia by ancient sources and examines the responses articulated to explain it. Among the variety of topics to pursue, three have been selected because they exemplify a typical characteristic of Arcadia: its wetness. They also allow spatial areas that were less prominent in part one to be explored. The first chapter investigates the attribution of Mycenaean waterworks in Arcadia to Herakles in myth. The second chapter examines the connection made in ancient sources between Poseidon's lordship over the Peloponnese, earthquakes, floods and cults of Poseidon Hippios in Arcadia. Finally, the last chapter explores the apparent contradiction of having infernal rivers observable in the world of the living, such as the Styx flowing in the Aroania Mountains.

▼ In the Hellenistic period, performing artists formed powerful associations that called themselves “the artists in the entourage of Dionysos” (οἱ περὶ τὸν Διόνυσον τεχνῖται). These associations comprised actors, musicians, poets, and other theatrical professionals who organized, promoted, and performed in local festivals in order to bring them to international distinction. As wielders of substantial cultural capital, their involvement with these local festivals attracted the patronage and support of cities, kings, and international sanctuaries. Through their carefully cultivated relationships with these various political bodies, the technītai developed four powerful regional associations based in Athens, Isthmos and Nemea, Ionia and the Hellespont, and the Ptolemaic kingdom. These larger associations, drawing on their expansive political power, adopted the institutional model of states: like poleis, they issued decrees through official magistrates, owned property, entered into synoikism with other cities, dispatched their own ambassadors and theoroi, and even minted their own coins on an international standard. Rather than explain these phenomena as the byproduct of a larger geopolitical shift in the wake of Alexander’s conquests, this dissertation argues first that the conditions that gave rise to the artists occurred as early as the fourth century BCE, when greater public acclaim for, and royal patronage of, performing artists is first evident in Athens and Macedonia, leading to the mobile entourage of artists who attended Alexander’s eastern campaign. Second, the dissertation argues that the technītai were not merely byproducts of the so-called “agonistic explosion” of the Hellenistic period but instead were active cultural agents whose activity shaped the emerging cultural koinon of the Hellenistic oikoumene by helping to create competing and collaborating festival networks. This is demonstrated in Chapters two through four, which examine the case studies of the Greek mainland, Ptolemaic Egypt and Cyprus, and Asia Minor, respectively.

This work draws research from the cognitive sciences, neurosciences and linguistics into dialogue with the history of Athens in the fifth century BC. This was the first recorded incidence of a society teaching reading and writing to its citizens. The aim of the work is to understand how problem-solving is significantly influenced by literacy or the lack of it. This research posits both culturally sensitive factors altering cognition (in this case through the overlay of literacy), and universal cognitive characteristics in the processing of domain or multi-domain specific language. Literacy education, whilst making no genetic change, developmentally recycles brain architecture in the left hemisphere. This is the hemisphere dominant in processing/producing writing. Metred language (prosody), on the other hand, is a function dominant in the right hemisphere and is a general characteristic of an oral society's concrete, implicit procedural knowledge. In the modern world poets and song writers have highly developed cognition in poetic language. However, among the general population, children and adult non-literates are also shown to possess preponderant abilities to process this form of language. This suggests two things: that the ability to generate poetic language is innate, and, that prose literacy education in some way inhibits this inborn ability to 'think' in poetry - at least in modern western education. In Athens, beyond alphabetic consciousness, the majority became functionally literate by reading poetry but were unable to devise extended continuous written prose. Within several generations a majority of citizens achieved functional literacy within the context of Athenian society. The extant texts of the period provide the first descriptions of a cognitive interface between 'orality' and 'literacy' in a population experiencing literacy en masse. Thucydides, Aristophanes, the logographers and some of their sophist teachers all provide first hand accounts of the impact on individual and collective decision-making. In the second half of the century sophistic education came to Athens introducing, to a minority, tuition in new constructs of extended abstract probabilistic argument accomplished by the use of written prose. Literacy education of this type creates a 'bootstrapping'…

▼ This thesis addresses building technology and the social implications of house construction contributing to the understanding of past societies. The spatiotemporal context of the study is the Neolithic period (ca. 6600/6500–3300/3200 cal BC) in northern Greece (Macedonia and Thrace). All available evidence from various excavations in the region is assembled and synthesised. The principal house types (semi-subterranean structures and above-ground dwellings) and their technological characteristics in terms of materials and techniques are discussed. In addition, the building remains from the late Middle/Late Neolithic settlement of Avgi (Kastoria, Greece) are thoroughly examined. Their study highlights the potentials of a detailed, micro-scale investigation and puts forth a methodology for the technological analysis of house rubble in the form of fire-hardened daub. The data deriving from both the survey of dwelling remains in northern Greece and the case study are examined within their wider sociocultural context. The technological repertoire of the region, although indicating the sharing of a common ‘architectural vocabulary’, reveals alternative chaînes opératoires and variability in different stages of the building process. Variability and patterning are more pronounced during the later stages of the Neolithic. The distribution of architectural choices does not suggest the existence of established and region-wide shared architectural traditions. However, the circulation of specific techniques and conceptions points to the operation of overlapping networks of technological and social interaction. At the site-specific scale, sameness and standardisation in building technology are the prominent themes. Nevertheless, different trends towards standardisation or variability are observed and are approached in terms of social interaction and intra-community dynamics. What is more, domestic architecture is not necessarily static in the long term. Change occurs and is often associated with the transformation of these dynamics. Occasional evidence of intra-site variability in building techniques and the more pronounced anchoring into space during the later stages of the Neolithic period are considered as a result of the changing relationship between social units and the community. The appearance of stone and mud(brick) architecture in Late Neolithic central Macedonia is approached in these terms.

The Sephardic Jews of Salonika thrived for centuries underOttoman rule thanks to their Dhimmi status and the millet system of taxation which keptthe Jews protected and insulated from harm while they rebuilt their Golden Age. Theirscientific, cultural, and literary attainments blossomed in Salonika during the ClassicalOttoman Age. With the decline of the Ottoman Empire and the rise in dominance of theGreat Powers, England and France, Greece eventually regained its independence fromOttoman Turkey. Greek independence was achieved, not so much as a result of Greeknationalism as it was from the intervention of the Great Powers in the 19th century.Throughout the 19th century and into the early 20th century, there was a greatmigration of Muslims out of the Balkans generally and Salonika in particular. Thismovement, combined with Greek independence precipitated a shift specifically ofpolitical power into the hands of a Christian monarchy. The Jewish population was verywary at first about the transition of governmental power. The implications for the Jewswere that they would now be subject to the kinds of pogroms that their Ashkenazi cousinshad endured for centuries, but this turned out not to be the case. The independencemovement in Greece, because it was so heavily influenced and controlled by Britain andFrance, meant that they would have a constitutional monarchy and that the basis forpower was secular, not religious. For the most part, this was good news for the Jews asthey were seen as Greeks of Jewish origin instead of Jewish outsiders. Salonika hadalways been a crossroads for trade, armies, and navies.After WWI, and after rebuilding after the great fire, Salonika resumed this rolebut in a New Greek fashion with a New Greek identity, based not on race but uponeconomics and the ideals of equality known today as a modern constitutionally basednation state.

▼ This thesis will explore how social and political conditions in archaic Greece affected the composition of poetry for female choral performance. My primary source material will be the poetry of Alcman and Sappho. I examine the evidence suggesting that poems by both Alcman and Sappho commented on political issues, using this as a basis to argue that women in archaic Greece may have had a more vocal public presence that has previously been imagined. Rather than viewing female performance as a means of discussing purely feminine themes or reinforcing the idea of a disempowered female gender, I argue that the poetry of Alman and Sappho gives parthenoi an authoritative public voice to comment on issues in front of the watching community. Part of this authority is derived from the social value of parthenoi, who can act as economically and socially valuable points of exchange between communities, but I shall also be looking at how traditional elements of female performance genre were used to enhance female authority in archaic Sparta and Lesbos. Once this has been established, this thesis will proceed to examine how public female performance dealt with major political and social issues in the archaic world. I shall argue that the performance of parthenoi did focus on primarily feminine concerns such as marriage, desire, and abduction, but that it could also be an opportunity to discuss much broader political themes that were of major importance to the entire polis. Alcman and Sappho use their poetry as a vehicle to comment on the society in which their poetry was composed, both discussing threats to order and representing solutions for a stable society. The content of female performed poetry was often composed as much for a male audience as for the performers themselves, using traditional female performance as a means of commenting on the current political climate. Through arguing these factors, the intention of this thesis is to suggest a much more prominent public role for archaic Greek females than has previously been recognised.
