Description

The harmful consequences of feathery-ness. Ancient Greece or the Ancient Greece? What are pluralia tantum? Chic or perhaps just pretentious? The Jews or the Jews? Rousseau, Roussó, or Rou-sseau? Oh, those showers!

The female parliament member, the parliament member, the deputy. The lives (?) of others. Anyway, we take care of "ourselves." Nymphs and brides, concepts and concerns. Hellenic contribution and deforestation. "What can we do?", or perhaps "What shall we do?". A bumpkin and much-desired.

Phileris and the Bloodthirsty, Dikoros and Kopronymous. Pyrrho-rix, of...? What does Tsimiskis mean? Who could Dukrji and Salisvouris have been, I wonder? The legendary bus "Thon-Thiseion." Hezopotamos and Cartier.

The Battle of the Pyramids and the Battle of the Golden Feathered. Alki Zei: In memoriam. The misery of ethnography. The devaluation of the Nobel Prize in Literature. Writers as translators.

"The demon of the eleventh hour" and "Fever in the blood." The demons or The possessed by Dostoevsky? And yet, Hugo did not write about Misérables... Texts of a simple language lover, which attempt to address issues that touch on fields such as language, History, translation, and even the movement of ideas. Texts guided by the principle that even the most interesting topics can be approached in a playful or humorous way.
