The 24 texts that make up this volume cover a period of more than sixty years.

They are presented here in chronological order of publication and outline the engagement of criticism with the poetic and essayistic work of Seferis.

At the same time, they clarify the path that criticism followed to identify and explore central themes of Seferis's work, a body of work with deep roots in Greek and European literature.

The selected texts, along with the rich bibliography at the end of the volume, make the Introduction to the Poetry of Seferis a reliable guide to the entirety of Seferis's creations.
