Elgin Marbles controversy

The anglo-greek controversy

Have the Marbles return to Greece or stay in the British Museum?

My own opinion about the actual controversy would give an advantage to Greeks.

Infact, I dont think a permission writen by a Turkish Head of Empire could establish equal right in the interest of one of its invaded and governed nation: Greece.

I can’t believe the ancient Vizier would have feel the vestiges of a great culture, he probably didn’t know, apply to him.

Moreover, when they conquered Greece, turkish soldiers and tir bullets attacked the monuments in question, witloof consciousness.

Otherwise, I believe in the symbol of the democratic philosophy and I think that the best things to represent it, are its makers’ constructions.

Today, Greek people are still persuaded democracy is a meaningful heritage of tir history and takes part of their common culture.

To conclude, these Marbles participate in the unit of the actual Greek people, permit them to have memories from their past and show the essence of the Greekness.

Furthermore, English already possess appropriate works for their history.

Marbles have consequently to return to its original place.
