The research project “Biographing the State: Digital Prosopography of the Modern Greek Public Administration (19th c.)” (BioState) investigates and documents the cohort of state officials who served under the Provisional Government of Greece (1822–1827) and traces their life trajectories. Drawing on the identification, processing, and cross-linking of archival sources that attest to their administrative careers, the project has developed an application for the study of their collective biography by employing the tools of digital prosopography. BioState addresses one of the principal challenges in the historical study of state institutions: the absence of a centralized register of public officials and the dispersion of relevant records across multiple archives. It examines how the institutions of the Greek state were first established and explores the role played by these early public officials, shifting the focus from institutional formation to the interplay and interdependence between institutions and individuals.
