Specifications
The two-hundredth anniversary of the birth of the modern Greek state offers an opportunity for study, reflection, and dreaming. In this process, the penetrating thought of Odysseas Elytis is invaluable.
The one hundred and thirty selected excerpts from Elytis's prose works included in the book shape a different form of patriotic discourse. Greece, the history of Hellenism, the Greek language, the Greek sea – the Aegean, Greek nature, Greek art, and Greek reality constitute the seven central themes of these writings.
Odysseas Elytis clarifies for us, encourages us, denounces us, and offers us the thread of Ariadne for a journey through the paths of ideas and sensitivities regarding our country. This country, as Elytis saw and understood it, who did not hesitate to declare that he is Greek “organically, psychologically, sensually, silently!”
