Accessing archives and print culture collections in Athens?
Hi all. I am a writer and researcher from London heading to Athens for a month in October for a writing residency. As part of my project, I want to undertake research into how information on paper (bulletin boards, publications, books, magazines, documents etc.) has been important for the history of Athens, particularly during the civil war 1946-49.
I am well-versed in using archives in the UK but have never accessed archives abroad. Are there any researchers, historians, creatives etc. out there who could give some advice on accessing photographs and print culture in the city or know which archives would be best for this sort of thing? Or does anybody know any experts in this area of research/history?
NB. It's probably useful to state here that I don't read or speak Greek, but would love to learn as much as I can through archived material culture whilst I'm in Athens.
Many thanks all!
