摘要

立法改革和古代纪念碑的文化复兴在占领军的艺术表现中发挥了至关重要的作用。希腊公司的制作受到意大利和德国当局的严格控制,法西斯军事人员参加了许多演出。与此同时,德国和意大利的艺术家与希腊的作品合作,举办他们自己的活动,并通过无线电传播到他们的祖国。然而,德国电影《前线剧场》(Fronttheater, 1942)集中体现了法西斯主义者对罗马剧院的挪用,把它作为一个战争和小说不可分割地交织在一起的壮观场面的纪念场所。这部电影展示了占领国如何在雅典实施和行使他们的文化权威。在这方面,祖先重生的法西斯神话将公民空间变成了壮观的政治场所。

Axis Occupation and the Odeon of Herodes Atticus: Artistic Production under Fascism (1941–1942)
Abstract:During the first two years of the Occupation of Greece by the Axis powers (1941–1942), the Odeon of Herodes Atticus had a symbolic place within fascist ideology. Legislative reform and a cultural revival of the ancient monument played a crucial role in the artistic expression of the occupying forces. Productions of Greek companies were tightly controlled by the Italian and German authorities, and fascist military personnel attended many of them. At the same time, German and Italian artists collaborated with Greek productions, staged their own events, and broadcast them to their homeland through radio transmission. It was, however, the German film Fronttheater (1942) that epitomized the fascist appropriation of the Roman Odeon as a monumental site of spectacle where war and fiction were inextricably interwoven. The film exhibited how the occupying powers enforced and exercised their cultural authority in Athens. In this regard, the fascist myth of ancestral rebirth transformed civic spaces into sites of spectacular politics.
