He addresses a hypertrophic and atrophic Europe in moral chaos, with as many coexisting values as languages-and to this he offers the \"common language\" that is found in poetry, in art, and in their base materials of sense, aesthetic, intuition. Ultimately, his is a powerful ode to beauty amid utilitarianism, and the need for poetry as \"the art of approaching that which surpasses us\" and \"puts us at the threshold of the deepest truth\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOdysseus Elytis (1911-1996) has been a leading figure in the \"Generation of the 1930s\", whose poets, influenced by surrealism, renewed contemporary Greek poetry.

He published seventeen collections of poetry, translations from ancient Greek and modern European poets, and two volumes of prose.

Ωστόσο, τον βασάνιζε ένα συνηθισμένο ερώτημα: πώς να είμαστε ευτυχισμένοι. Η βαθύτατη πεποίθησή του ήταν πως όλοι μπορούμε να είμαστε ευτυχισμένοι με έναν ουσιαστικό και βιώσιμο τρόπο – και ο ίδιος το δίδαξε με το παράδειγμά του. Η καθηγήτρια Edith Hall αποδεικνύει πως η αρχαία σκέψη είναι ό,τι ακριβώς χρειαζόμαστε σήμερα. Μέσα από δέκα πρακτικά μαθήματα κατανοούμε περισσότερο τον ίδιο τον εαυτό μας αλλά και τον τρόπο με τον οποίο λαμβάνουμε καλές αποφάσεις. \u003cbr\u003eΜαθαίνουμε πώς να επιτύχουμε σε μια συνέντευξη εργασίας, πώς να επιλέξουμε σύντροφο και παντοτινούς φίλους και πώς να διαχειριστούμε τον θάνατο ή την απώλεια.\u003cbr\u003eΕίτε πρόκειται για την αρχαία Ελλάδα είτε για τον σύγχρονο κόσμο, οι προκλήσεις της ζωής παραμένουν ίδιες. Ο Αριστοτέλης δεν περιγράφει μια απλή εφαρμογή κανόνων. Με τον πρακτικό, μετριο­παθή και διαχρονικό λογισμό του, μας καλεί να εντρυφήσουμε στην ουσία της ύπαρξης και να πορευτούμε συνειδητά προς μια ευτυχισμένη ζωή. \u003cbr\u003eΟι συμβουλές του θα είναι πάντα διαχρονικές και επίκαιρες.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable id=\"product-attribute-specs-table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePages\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"Pages\"\u003e336\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePublication Date\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"Publication Date\"\u003e2019\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePublisher\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"Publisher\"\u003eΔιόπτρα\/Dioptra\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eISBN\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"ISBN\"\u003e9789606056871\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBinding\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"Binding\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"Author\"\u003eEdith Hall\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Diavazo Greek Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40155132461245,"sku":"aristotelis arxaia sofia sygxroni zwi","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/7574\/2397\/products\/aristotelhs-h-arxaia-sofia-sth-sygxronh-zwh-edith-hall-8707830.png?v=1765466959"},{"product_id":"i-kardia-tou-anthrwpou","title":"Η Καρδιά του Ανθρώπου: Η Δύναμή του για το Καλό και το Κακό - Erich Fromm","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Heart of Man by Erich Fromm in modern Greek.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv aria-hidden=\"false\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"tab-label-product.info.description\" data-role=\"content\" id=\"product.info.description\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eΣτο βιβλίο Η Καρδιά του Ανθρώπου, ο θεωρητικός στοχαστής Έριχ Φρομ αναλύει την ανθρώπινη φύση, την επιλογή μεταξύ Καλού και Κακού, την αγάπη του θανάτου και τον κακώς εννοούμενο ναρκισσισμό.

Οι άνθρωποι, σύμφωνα με τον Φρομ, είναι ελεύθεροι να επιλέξουν μεταξύ Καλού και Κακού, αλλά οι προηγούμενες επιλογές τους έχουν συνέπειες. Παρ’ όλα αυτά η επιστροφή είναι πάντοτε δυνατή.

There are essays on Sappho's sexuality and the feminism of Game of Thrones; on how Virgil's Aeneid prefigures post-World War II history and why we are still obsessed with the Titanic; on Patrick Leigh Fermor's final journey, Karl Ove Knausgaard's autofiction and the plays of Tom Stoppard, Tennessee Williams, and Noël Coward.

On a voyage of discovery to reveal the truth behind Venus, Hughes reveals how this mythological figure is so much more than nudity, romance and sex.
