Maniou Department of Journalism, Frederick University 7, Y.Frederickou str., 1036, Nicosia Cyprus [email protected] Abstract: Around the world, the historical evolution of television follows every country’s history and is closely related to the structures of every society within which it operates. In Cyprus, broadcasting remained under the direct control of the state for more than thirty years while significant political events can be associated with changes in the audiovisual media landscape. Public service broadcasting (PSB) television was established in 1957, only three years before the country denounced British colonialism and became an independent Republic, under the auspices and guidance of the BBC.

So from the outset, my paper has a twofold task: firstly, to draw attention to the paradoxical position of Cypriot English writers who remain outside the literary feast both at home and abroad; and secondly, to explore the literary vicissitudes of some works of this corpus, and to examine how their minor position locally in relation to the dominant literatures in Greek and Turkish, and internationally in relation to global English — a position that Deleuze and Guattari (1986) describe as ‘minor literature’— has engendered syncretic aesthetics.

  • Marios Vasiliou
    Writing Cyprus: Homecoming and Cosmopolitanism in Colonial, Anti-Colonial, and Postcolonial Anglophone Literary Texts Marios Vasiliou Vasiliou Department of English Studies MariosMay 2014 Abstract The present thesis explores the divergent meanings of homecoming and cosmopolitanism for Anglophone literary narratives that write Cyprus in three distinct periods: the colonial, the anti-colonial and nationalist, and the postcolonial. While all three periods manifest a plurality of Anglophone narratives that write the island and inscribe it with an identity which reflects their ideological intentions, they also exemplify significant differences regarding the meanings invested on the above themes. In other words, reaching a ‘homecoming’ or finding a cultural arrival in the Anglophone narratives that write Cyprus often passes through the idiom of cosmopolitanism, but the latter manifests different meanings at different historical periods in the literary history of the island. While the first colonial narratives (which contribute to a literary colonial cosmopolitanism on the island) waver between domesticating and vilifying depictions of the island to the extent that only the first ones imbibe some form of ‘homecoming’ to the island, anti-colonial texts uniformly envisage ‘home’ along nationalist strictures and exude a sense of homecoming in their glorification of the nation and its nostalgia for ethnic homogeneity. In contrast to both, the Anglophone postcolonial texts that I deal with envisage ‘home’ across ethnic lines and imbibe an idiom of cosmopolitanism of the utopian and heterotopian kinds that is unlike any former cosmopolitan visionsVasiliou that have been observed before in the island’s literary topographies. Cultural arrival, for these latter texts, is envisaged in rapprochement and cross-cultural friendship and is often deferred since the notions of home, homecoming, and community are often deemed to be implicated in, and traversed by, disruption and dislocation.

  • To Peirama (2009) the Experiment
    2010 Myrto Azina Chronides – Cyprus To Peirama (2009) The Experiment Publishing House Armida Publications Biography Myrto Azina Chronides (b.1961) was born in Nicosia, Cyprus. Since her early years, she has written many essays and poems. She won several literary prizes at the Pancyprian Gymnasium for poetry and prose, and published her first book, Hemerologion, at the age of fifteen. After graduation, she specialized in General Medicine at the academic hospital of the University of Bonn in Euskirchen. Since 2007, she has been working in Cyprus at the Department of Medical and Public Health Services. She has received a positive critical reaction for her modern and unconventional writing style, while her short stories have featured in many literary magazines and in two national anthologies. Synopsis In short, Myrto Azina’s book could be described as a study on erotic love and the soul. A cou- ple’s sexual relationship forms the central theme running across most of the stories. From the beginning, He and She, the book’s protagonists, take a pledge to undergo an ‘experiment’: to understand the nature of erotic love and their relationship by abstaining from carnal contact so as to devote themselves to writing. She is an unbowed woman who claims her freedom. He is, “a wise man, a believer in the Socratic saying, ‘All I know is that I know nothing’”. To Peirama’s peculiar, subtly connected narrative houses a collection of tales that lean towards the structure of a synthetic prose piece, neither novella nor novel. Consequently, the book is an original work, which does not fit easily within any traditional genre of creative prose.

It may not be necessary to go back beyond a half-century or so to understand the way the past has been used by both Greek and Turkish nationalists to keep resentment, rejection, and indeed hatred of the other ethnic community alive. Still it does not seem too far fetched either to consider that, as often happens, such enmities are fed by a long previous history.

Watching inscriptions emerge from the earth and documenting them has a poetic resonance for both scholars and artists in the Greco-Roman theatre in Paphos. Cyprus has a complex history of writing in stone, in various scripts, since the bronze Age. Through the individual experience of an artist/archaeologist, this essay traces the impact of the past on the present through graphic and woven representations that refer to the resonance of the classical past in postcolonial Australia. By teasing out that poetic resonance, this study looks closely at inscriptions associated with the names Marcus Aurelius and Eustorgis from the paphos theatre, and comments on the inferences of gender.
