PERSPECTIVES

In this series of philosophical, sociological, and aesthetic essays, the author addresses topics concerning the core of modern Greek culture, the mission of education, and the moral crisis. He also conducts analyses based on the reflections of Ang. Terzakis, as well as the poetry of G. Seferis and K. Kavafis. The dangers threatening the system of values in the world of technology present a challenge for the intellectual individual, who has the duty to realize the criticality of the historical moment 'with a gaze that is not the straightforward gaze of everyday dimensions, but the oblique gaze of historical perspectives, the deep and penetrating gaze of responsibility towards destiny.'

THE TESTIMONY OF THE POET G. THEMELIS

In this essay, the author undertakes a thorough analysis and philosophical penetration of the poetic work of G. Themelis, seeking to demonstrate the broader significance of contemporary poetry. Each poetry collection by G. Themelis transcends its aesthetic achievement and can be considered as an act of a unified drama. It is a testimony of spirit and a testimony of existence, which transports us to extreme realizations, 'to the realms of ontological poverty. Where not only poetry converges and culminates, but also religious experience and philosophical intuition.'
