Separated city: oblivion in the memory of Athens

In 403 BC The short but bloody period of the history of ancient Athens ended: the army of exile democrats laid an end to the rule of “thirty tyrants”. The winners could enjoy revenge, but instead Athenian citizens - probably for the first time in history - came to an amnesty decision. The warring parties swore “not to remember the malignations of the past” - to forget about the Civil War (Stasis) and the associated atrocities. But is it possible to finally erase Stasis from memory and turn the page? What if a conscious act of political oblivion launches a process similar to Freudian crowding out? Nicole Loro scrupulously studies traces of this process, attracting a wide arsenal of ancient sources and modern analytical tools. Her Athens live, fight, mourn, but the most important thing? -? They continue to store the memory of the events of the past, which citizens agreed to forget. Nicole Loro (1943–2003) is a researcher at the history and anthropology of ancient Greece, a professor at the Higher School of Social Sciences in Paris
