Les théâtres antiques et leur entrées: parodos et aditus, 2024

This article examines one of the main architectural features of the Graeco-Roman theatre, namely, the lateral entrances, focusing on a time span that stretches from the Classical to the Late Roman period. Firstly, matters of terminology are addressed. It is shown that the lateral entrances of the Greek theatre were referred to either by the generic word εἴσοδος or, at least from the early Hellenistic period onwards, by the terminus technicus πάροδος. Next, their symbolic significance and their importance from the functional point of view in the Classical and Hellenistic theatre and drama are examined. Architecturally, the parodoi were open-air corridors flanking the retaining walls of the auditorium. Finally, the analysis of the changes observed in performances and theatrical architectures during Roman times leads to the conclusion that the centuries-long history of the side entrances in Greek theatres is characterized by a consistent continuity in both form and function over time.

The National Archaeological Museum in Athens. Aspects of its history, collections and artefact documentation through the study of its Photographic Archive and other archival sources. Dr Maria Chidiroglou Archaeologist - Curator National Archaeological Museum, Department of the Collections of Vases, Metal and Minor Arts Artefacts 1 Tositsa Str., Athens 10682, Greece mariachidiroglou@gmail.com mchidiroglou@culture.gr The National Archaeological Museum, founded in Athens in 1866, is known through its Collections of Greek and Roman sculptures, ceramic vases, terracotta statuettes, bronze artefacts, glass vessels and jewellery. Its Photographic Archive, one of the oldest of the Greek Archaeological Service, recently implementing the updating and digitizing of its materials, houses analog, digitized and digital photographic documents, the earliest analog ones of which date in late 19th century. Many glass-plates and other early negatives of the Archive illustrate sculptures and vases acquired by the National Museum in its early period, as well as landscapes, views of early excavations, sites and monuments of the ancient Greek world. This paper aims to briefly present moments from the early history of the National Archaeological Museum in Athens by tracing the context, provenance and excavation data of a number of example artefacts from its Collections. Photographs from the Museum Archive, early reports, documentation and other archival sources will help us investigate artefact data, as well as gain insights into the early archaeological research in Greece.

The Russo-Ukrainian War has heightened security concerns across Europe. In response, European countries are not only looking to enhance their capabilities to face modern types of warfare but also experiencing a resurgence of interest in traditional security measures such as military conscription (Silva, 2024). This shift is evident as nations reassess their defence capabilities, both within multinational alliances such as NATO and by bolstering their own national defence. In response to these evolving security needs, the German government has turned its attention to the recently restored Scandinavian conscription systems as a role model to embark on the process of reintroducing conscription (Deutsche Welle, 2024a). The success of these Scandinavian systems, which makes them attractive to other European countries, lies in adapting to their changing societies by presenting innovative models of conscription (Jonsson et al., 2024; Strand, 2021). Furthermore, this type of draft is based on choosing the best and most motivated people. The highly selective draft is helping these countries to move from military service as something men were forced to do to something now people select to do for their personal and professional growth (Braw, 2017). Following the success factor of Scandinavian models in reflecting changing societies and making it attractive for professional growth, the reintroduction of conscription in Germany presents significant challenges, with wider social implications in terms of making the Bundeswehr an inclusive and attractive model for professional and personal growth for youth (Jonsson et al.; Jäckle, 2023). A reformed conscription system in Germany can be achieved by focusing not only on intermediate security needs but on how the military can provide opportunities for youth. Germany’s government should consider including the essential elements that make Scandinavian models successful, such as being highly selective or competitive in the job market. Moreover, in Germany’s particular case, an essential element to reflect its social reality is the inclusion of migrants or inhabitants with a “migrant background”. This would help to foster greater social cohesion (Winnick,2017) and counter recent events where nationalist sentiments have resurfaced. The latter is of paramount importance given Germany’s historical context and the risk of the military’s potentiality to fuel nationalist sentiments. The careful management of nationalist discourse within recruitment campaigns is essential. The first section of this paper provides an overview of the Swedish and Norwegian conscription models highlighting the elements of success that are necessary to achieve a renovated conscription system in Germany. The second section briefly presents the context of conscription in Germany. Then the paper outlines a key consideration for restoring conscription in Germany when trying to reflect their current social reality.
