Research Abstract |
The movements of the linguistic turn, the postmodemism and the gender studies etc. have caused the change of the paradigm since 1980's. This change also has forced us to revise our perceptions of Greco-Roman world. I have taken these movements into consideration and aimed to research the Greekness afresh by reconsidering toward which communities ancient Greeks had had the identities. For I have realized in the process of this reserch that there were many kinds of communities besides polis which has generally been regarded as the embodiment of the Greekness.

research examined the influences of the identities and perceptions of their own histories in the age of Roman domination for moulding the pervasive image of Greeks, It seems to be made clear by this research that there was a difference between the Greekness which Greeks under the Roman Empire attributed to it and the Greekness which Greeks before the Roman conquest over Greece had had. Therefore, this research analyzed the changes of their perceptions of Greekness from diachronic point of view, which extends from Archaicperiod to Roman period, especially considering the situations of Hellenistic period which has been ignored in the past, and I reconsidered the Greekness of its fundamental nature. It is realized that we will misunderstand the characteristics of Greek communities if our own perceptions of Modem States are applied to recognize the nature of Greek communities, because their identities had been mutable according to their situation. It seems that various kinds of communities had existed, and ancient Greeks had had various identities synchronically through common participations in various kinds of religious rites. Finally this research has concluded that it is a characteristic of the Greekness. So it is indispensable for the study of the Greekness to emphasize the irrational aspects of religious ties in various kinds of ancient Greek communities. Less
