Excerpt from Journal of a Tour in Asia Minor: With Comparative Remarks on the Ancient and Modern Geography of That Country By assuming the medical character, he secured a good reception at several of the provincial towns, and protection from the governors, as far as their authority extend ed; but the banditti which at that period infested every part of the country, obliged him always to travel in haste, and often in the night; and he was not qualified to de rive as much advantage fromjourneys made under such circumstances as a more expe rienced and more enlightened traveller might have done. He was generally care ful in noting the time employed in each stage; but the names of places are often disfigured by his careless mode of writing.

The Greco-Turkish War (1919-1922) in Asia Minor and the Population Exchange that followed led to the forced displacement of more than 1.5 million people who became entangled in the nation-building processes of both Greece and Turkey. This book examines the memories that shaped Asia Minor refugee identity, focusing on the ways in which these memories continue to reverberate in contemporary Greek culture. It explores how memories of Asia Minor frame wider social debates, foster affective alliances, inform different notions of belonging and provide a toolkit for addressing contemporary concerns. Taking the reader across a wide range of cultural works—history textbooks, comics, theatre, documentary and fiction films, news footage and photography—the book shows how these works have become means for individuals and communities to contribute to the process of history-making. While keeping its focus on present-day Greece, Memories of Asia Minor joins wider global debates over contested pasts, legacies of war and refugeehood.
