Title A name given to the resource WWII Monuments in Epirus, Greece Description An account of the resource These images and text document the many and varied World War II monuments scattered across the rugged landscape of Epirus, in northwestern Greece. They also provide evidence for the strong culture of ongoing World War II commemoration in the region. What the monuments commemorate ranges from the Hellenic Army's victory over Mussolini's forces in 1940 through the role of Greek women in the war, to the victims of Nazi atrocities, and even a Communist dominated resistance organization. The collection is part of a larger project that includes scholarship on some of the memorials, and interactive mapping of all of them which will enable users to geographically locate each one, learn its historical context, and contribute to discussion about it. <a href="https://digitalexhibits.hollins.edu/neatline/show/warmonumentsgreece">View the interactive map</a> Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Images provided for non-commercial research and reference use only.

Type The nature or genre of the resource war memorials; martyr monument; list of names Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context epirus_ligiades_martyr_monument Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource October 3, 1943 (Date of Event) ; 2001 (Date of Construction) Title A name given to the resource Ligiades Martyr Monument Description An account of the resource This matyr monument is located in the unusual two-level plateia near the entrance to the village of Ligiades on a prominent spur of land, overlooking Ioaninna, the lake, and the plain, with Mt. Mitsikeli as a backdrop. Rising out of a a low, marble-clad parapet that can serve as a bench is a taller section of wall that bears two inscriptions and a bronze relief. In front of the wall is an overlife-sized, free-standing bronze statue of a woman. The inscriptions provide the name of the village, the date of the event commemorated, 3 October 1943, and a list of names of the victims in two columns, both here in Ligiades and at Amphithea. The triangular compostion of the bronze relief focuses attention on the tall, veiled figure in the center, who cradles a clearly dead child in his arms. Situated at his feet are a tumble of slumped humans, both dead and alive, of various genders and ages. Hands claw their way out from under a pile of bodies, reaching up towards the standing male figure. A swatch of cloth at the left edge drapes off the edge of the platform and extends to the inscription, linking the victims’ names with this chilling representation in bronze. The free-standing bronze of the woman is to the right of the relief, and at a right angle to the plane of the wall. She stands, head erect, face devoid of emotion, bearing a garland in outstretched hands. Her head is draped, and she is clothed in an archaizing dress, bordered with a running wave motif, attire evocative of the ancient past. Her skirt and her base are two of the three places that the sculptor has placed his signature, utilizing an ancient formula that when read, makes the sculpture speak: γλυπτης Λεοντης Ευσταθιος Πατρευς μ’εποιησε  (“the sculptor Leontis Eustathios of Patras made me”).
