Documenting the EOKA Struggle by Georgios Grivas Digenis
October 18, 2026
The EOKA struggle of 1955-59 is a pivotal event in the history of Cyprus and Greece, significantly impacting the political and social landscape of the time. The recording of memories by participants was limited in the early years due to the context of the period. General Georgios Grivas Digenis was the first to document his memories, publishing works that detail the history of the struggle. Digenis's engagement in documenting events provides a valuable source for historiography and research. His works, which include the General Plan of Revolutionary Action, expand the understanding of the Cypriot struggle.
