Resilienz in fiktiven Frühgeschichten (ehemals) unfreier Bevölkerungsgruppen im antiken Griechenland

Résumé

The paper examines fictional narratives of the past of (formerly) unfree population groups in ancient Greece under the aspect of resilience. The two case studies of the Messenian Helots and the Thessalian Penestai are evaluated. First, it is explained why these two narratives of the past must be regarded as fictitious. Then it is shown that a distinction must be made between, on the one hand, sources from the time when the population groups concerned were not free and, on the other, those from the time after their liberation, as well as between sources that take the point of view of the unfree and those that take the point of view of the masters. Furthermore, because the narratives sometimes had a literary Fortleben that lasted for centuries and was detached from the original context, fictitious acts of protohistorical resilience may have penetrated the narrative only later.
