Description
Adapting it, I borrow the title from Ph. Lacoue-Labarthe's text "Holderlin and the Greeks", a text that, with its related theme, runs underground in my own, as does Dominique Grandmont's text "Kavafis' Greece", which was of decisive importance for the organization and formulation of my thoughts below. From Lacoue-Labarthe's text, I also keep the foreword by Heiner Muller, which I will come back to later. The heir reflects on his inheritance from the moment it is threatened with loss. The danger of losing it or proving that it does not belong to him mobilizes the mechanism of appropriation within him. What is considered given and secured excludes stochastic reference to it. Starting from this risky observation, the opportunity is given to us to resort from the periphery to the center, from the perimeter to the heart of the problem, from tranquility to anxiety. To dare, not without consequences, the extreme, the deadly exit. Thus, the above observation directly introduces us to the danger zone. We pass, almost associatively, to otherness. Otherness is, in this case, Greece. Greece excludes identification with it. It excludes identity. And all its derivatives: familiarity, kinship, possession, security. We, inhabitants of this geographical region, are entitled to treat the Greeks only as foreigners. To treat them as foreigners. We, as non-Greeks. As non-Greeks, what are we? Inhabitants of a geographical region that was inhabited by people who tried to become something. This effort and its fruits made them Greeks. We do not make any similar effort. Because we believe that we are Greeks. We are not Greeks. The given and the secured exclude the effort. The exclusion of our effort excludes us from becoming Greeks. As long as we do not try to become Greeks, we are neither nor will we ever become Greeks. Here is a very serious reason why the Parthenon Marbles should never be returned. Their non-return should be a national goal because it achieves the beneficial rupture in continuity, the breaking of acquired. The heir realizes that he must fight in order to be recognized the right of ownership over the considered given and secured inheritance of his. [...]
