Collected here are the two speeches Elytis gave on his acceptance of the 1979 Nobel Prize for Literature, which are still strikingly relevant today. 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. During the post-war years he lived for long periods in France, where he associated with the pioneers of the world's avant-garde (Reverdy, Tzara, Breton, Ungaretti, Matisse, Picasso, Giacometti). He published seventeen collections of poetry, translations from ancient Greek and modern European poets, and two volumes of prose.

Dedicated ‘to the heroic workers of Thessaloniki’ and drawing on the sixth-century Greek Orthodox Epitaphios Thrinos, the poem combines Mary’s lament at Christ’s tomb with popular Greek folk traditions of resurrection and Spring to create a universal lament sung by every bereaved mother ‘who sits and mourns on the blood-stained street with her heart flayed, her wing broken.’ Although Epitaphios was banned in Greece for many years, in the 1950s an expanded version of the poem was set to music by Mikis Theodorakis and recorded by Nana Mouskouri.

In early manhood an admirer of Socrates, he later founded the famous school of philosophy in the grove Academus. Much else recorded of his life is uncertain; that he left Athens for a time after Socrates’s execution is probable; that later he went to Cyrene, Egypt, and Sicily is possible; that he was wealthy is likely; that he was critical of “advanced” democracy is obvious.

Protagoras, Ion, and Meno discuss whether righteousness can be taught. In Gorgias, Socrates is estranged from his city’s thought, and his fate is impending. The Apology (not a dialogue), Crito, Euthyphro, and the unforgettable Phaedo relate the trial and death of Socrates and propound the immortality of the soul. In the famous Symposium and Phaedrus, written when Socrates was still alive, we find the origin and meaning of love. Cratylus discusses the nature of language.

Of its sequels, Sophist deals with not-being; Politicus with good and bad statesmanship and governments; Philebus with what is good.

Louis Aragon called him 'the greatest poet of our age'. He wrote in the face of ill-health, personal tragedy and the systematic persecution by successive hard-line, right-wing regimes that led to many years in prison, or in island detention camps. Despite this, his lifetime's work amounted to 120 collections of poems, several novels, critical essays, and translations of Russian and Eastern European poetry. The 1960 setting, by Mikis Theodorakis, of Ritsos's epic poem Epitaphios was said to have helped inspire a cultural revolution in Greece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Secret gives versions of Ritsos's short lyric poems: brief, compressed narratives that are spare, though not scant.

The demands on her translators are considerable. Dimoula plays with the Greek language, melds its levels of diction, challenges its grammar and syntax, and bends its words by twisting their very shape and meaning. Cecile Inglessis Margellos and Rika Lesser, Dimoula’s award-winning translators, have re-created her style’s uncanny effect of refraction: when plunged into the water of her poetry, all these bent words suddenly and astonishingly appear perfectly straight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \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\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\"\u003e392\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\"\u003e2014\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePublisher\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"Publisher\"\u003eYale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eISBN\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"ISBN\"\u003e9780300205732\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\"\u003eKiki Dimoula \/ Cecile Inglessis Margellos and Rika Lesser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Diavazo Greek Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55989089927550,"sku":"brazen plagiarist","price":20.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/7574\/2397\/files\/the-brazen-plagiarist-selected-poems-kiki-dimoula-7173747.jpg?v=1765463957"},{"product_id":"poiimata-sylvia-plath","title":"Ποιήματα - Sylvia Plath","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCollected Poems by Sylvia Plath in modern Greek. \u003c\/strong\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\"\u003e152\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\"\u003e2003\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePublisher\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"Publisher\"\u003eΚέδρος\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eISBN\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd data-th=\"ISBN\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sku-isbn\"\u003e9789600422306\u003c\/span\u003e\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\"\u003eSylvia Plath\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":56092421587326,"sku":"poiimata sylvia plath","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/7574\/2397\/files\/poihmata-sylvia-plath-7384369.jpg?v=1765464139"},{"product_id":"ballad-for-the-unsung-poets-of-the-ages-kostas-karyotakis-bilingual","title":"Ballad for the Unsung Poets of the Ages - Kostas Karyotakis (Bilingual)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSELECTED POEMS AND PROSE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA bilingual English-Greek edition of the poem \"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eΜπαλάντα στους άδοξους ποιητές των αιώνων\" and other poems by Kostas Karyotakis.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTranslated by \u003cspan\u003eSimon Darragh\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction by Dimitris Daskalopoulos\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBILINGUAL EDITION\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat one came alone, from some place else. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eHe came slowly, following his own path. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eA white angel with jet-black wings!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKostas Karyotakis is the poet most emblematic of the turbulent interwar period in Greece.
