For several years now, the issue of pure poetry has begun to circulate in our literary discussions. Around 1926, we wanted the poet to be genuine and elevated; now we either want him or do not want him to be pure.
Although I have not been able to understand, with some clarity, the problem as we pose it in Greece, it seems to me that we have a tendency to characterize as pure poetry the Greek poems that do not resemble the works we knew roughly as the 'Elegies and Satires' of Karyotakis, and that we judge these poems not by comparing them with other poems, but with a certain poetic theory.
It is, however, very misleading to think that one is judging a poem while in reality they are attacking or supporting the doctrine of an aesthetic.
