At Sani, a local, three-generation family business, hundreds of acres of private forest have been preserved for guests and the local community to enjoy. 9 The umbrella project for the company’s environmental initiatives is called Sani Green. It is born out of recognition that there is so much more that can be done, and it summarizes the company’s commitment to improving year on year. Mission The Sani Green programme extends beyond the hotels’ operation, to biodiversity protection too, as well as education. Greece is a biodiversity hotspot, with one of the highest biodiversity levels in Europe. The Sani area is adjacent to a Natura European Network area of Protected Natural Beauty and Biodiversity, the Sani wetlands. With an area of approximately 110 hectares, the wetlands are home to over 214 species of birds – almost half the total of bird species found in the whole of Greece - many of them rare and globally endangered. 10 Be part of it Did you know that? Birdwatching trips to the wetlands are offered by bike or foot for guests and local school visits are Sani has invited guests to organized throughout the year.

In rooms, the Sani Bear is sold raising money for forest projects for the charity Arcturos. 11 Once upon a time… This year, Sani has also published a children’s fairy tale, called “Hermes, the black-winged stilt”, in cooperation with the Hellenic Ornithological Society, about the Sani wetlands, its birds and what one can do to protect them. All proceeds will go towards supporting the Hellenic Ornithological Society. www.saniresort.com 12 Hermes, the black-winged stilt A story about the Sani Wetlands All night long, a flock of black-winged stilts were flying high above the waves. Since they had started their journey from Africa, they had not stopped for a rest… «Hold on, I see land! We are getting closer to our lake,» yelled the bird at the front. However, Hermes was a young bird and this was his first journey. He was too tired to follow them and fell to the ground near an ancient Byzantine tower. 13 (…) Hermes was hungry (…) Beyond the freshwater and looked around for lake he spotted an olive food, but all he could see grove. «This reminds me from the top of the tree of the forest,» Hermes were vast sand dunes and thought sadly. «All these the sea lapping gently trees, but no water… And if against the shore.

  • Excerpt from Euripides' Herakles
    Excerpt from Euripides’ Herakles (lines 1189-1426) The action up until now: The goddess Hera has sent Madness upon Herakles. Madness has driven Herakles to kill his wife and his children. He mistook them for his enemies, being under the influence of Madness. Herakles is just coming out of the frenzied state he was in, and beginning to realise what he has done. He is contemplating suicide. Suddenly, Theseus of Athens appears on the scene. After a discussion with Herakles’ father Amphitryon, Theseus learns what has happened. At this moment, Herakles is lying in among his dead family members, ashamed of his actions, not wanting Theseus to see his face. I have included some lines here of the discussion between Theseus and Amphitryon, that will lead into the essential discussion between Herakles and Theseus. Theseus What do you mean? What has he done? Amphitryon Slain them in a wild fit of frenzy with arrows dipped in the venom of the hundred-headed hydra. Theseus This is Hera's work; but who lies there among the dead, old man? Amphitryon My son, my own enduring son, that marched with gods to Phlegra's plain, there to battle with giants and slay them, warrior that he was. Theseus Ah, ah! whose fortune was ever so cursed as his? Amphitryon Never will you find another mortal that has suffered more or been driven harder. Theseus Why does he veil his head, poor wretch, in his robe? Amphitryon He is ashamed to meet your eye; his kinsman's kind intent and his children's blood make him abashed.

This was a time of tremendous transition and instability for the entire Greek nation. The film begins with a montage of the Asia Minor Disaster which resulted in a population exchange, that increased the population in Greece by approximately 25%, almost overnight, in 1923 with most of them ending up in Athens. It was in these overcrowded and economically and spiritually destitute conditions during the 1930's, that the Rembetiko genre of music reached its height in popularity.

  • Greek Mythology
    Greek Mythology The Creation Myth “First Chaos came into being, next wide bosomed Gaea(Earth), Tartarus and Eros (Love). From Chaos came forth Erebus and black Night. Of Night were born Aether and Day (whom she brought forth after intercourse with Erebus), and Doom, Fate, Death, sleep, Dreams; also, though she lay with none, the Hesperides and Blame and Woe and the Fates, and Nemesis to afflict mortal men, and Deceit, Friendship, Age and Strife, which also had gloomy offspring.”[11] “And Earth first bore starry Heaven (Uranus), equal to herself to cover her on every side and to be an ever-sure abiding place for the blessed gods. And earth brought forth, without intercourse of love, the Hills, haunts of the Nymphs and the fruitless sea with his raging swell.”[11] Heaven “gazing down fondly at her (Earth) from the mountains he showered fertile rain upon her secret clefts, and she bore grass flowers, and trees, with the beasts and birds proper to each. This same rain made the rivers flow and filled the hollow places with the water, so that lakes and seas came into being.”[12] The Titans and the Giants “Her (Earth) first children (with heaven) of Semi-human form were the hundred-handed giants Briareus, Gyges, and Cottus. Next appeared the three wild, one-eyed Cyclopes, builders of gigantic walls and master-smiths…..Their names were Brontes, Steropes, and Arges.”[12] Next came the “Titans: Oceanus, Hypenon, Iapetus, Themis, Memory (Mnemosyne), Phoebe also Tethys, and Cronus the wily—youngest and most terrible of her children.”[11] “Cronus hated his lusty sire Heaven (Uranus).

  • The Voyage of the Argo and Other Modes of Travel in Apollonius’ Argonautica
    THE VOYAGE OF THE ARGO AND OTHER MODES OF TRAVEL IN APOLLONIUS’ ARGONAUTICA Brian D. McPhee A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Classics. Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: William H. Race James J. O’Hara Emily Baragwanath © 2016 Brian D. McPhee ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Brian D. McPhee: The Voyage of the Argo and Other Modes of Travel in Apollonius’ Argonautica (Under the direction of William H. Race) This thesis analyzes the Argo as a vehicle for travel in Apollonius’ Argonautica: its relative strengths and weaknesses and ultimately its function as the poem’s central mythic paradigm. To establish the context for this assessment, the first section surveys other forms of travel in the poem, arranged in a hierarchy of travel proficiency ranging from divine to heroic to ordinary human mobility. The second section then examines the capabilities of the Argo and its crew in depth, concluding that the ship is situated on the edge between heroic and human travel. The third section confirms this finding by considering passages that implicitly compare the Argo with other modes of travel through juxtaposition. The conclusion follows cues from the narrator in proposing to read the Argo as a mythic paradigm for specifically human travel that functions as a metaphor for a universal and timeless human condition. iii parentibus meis “Finis origine pendet.” iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost, I owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to my director and mentor, William Race.

  • The Classical Mythology of Milton's English Poems
    YALE STUDIES IN ENGLISH ALBERT S. COOK, Editor VIII THE CLASSICAL MYTHOLOGY OF Milton's English poems CHARLES GROSVENOR OSGOOD, Ph.D. NEW YORK HENRY HOLT AND COMPANY igoo Ss9a Copyright, igoo, BY CHARLES GROSVENOR OSGOOD, Ph.D. J^ 7/SS TO PROFESSQR ALBERT S. COOK AND PROFESSOR THOMAS D. SEYMOUR — PREFACE The student who diligently peruses the lines of a great poem may go far toward a realization of its char- acter. He may appreciate, in a degree, its loveliness, strength, and direct hold upon the catholic truth of life. But he will be more sensitive to these appeals, and receive gifts that are richer and less perishable, accord- ing as he comprehends the forces by whose interaction the poem was produced. These are of two kinds the innate forces of the poet's character, and certain more external forces, such as, in the case of Milton, are represented by Hellenism and Hebraism. Their activ- ity is greatest where they meet and touch, and at this point their nature and measure are most easily dis- cerned. From a contemplation of the poem in its gene- sis one returns to a deeper understanding and enjoyment of it as a completed whole. The present study, though it deals with but one of the important cultural influ- ences affecting Milton, and with it but in part, endeav- ors by this method to deepen and clarify the apprecia- tion of his art and teaching. My interest in the present work has found support and encouragement in the opinions of Mr. Churton Collins, as expressed in his valuable book.

  • A Way of Life
    The Passenger: Greece — May 2020 ISBN: 9781787702189 A Way of Life Matteo Nucci Translated by Alan Thawley Rebetiko is rebel music by definition (challenging power, war and conformism), part of the cultural baggage of those displaced from Asia Minor. In recent years it has been reborn and is once again releasing its revolutionary potential. I was initiated into rebetiko by a Russian. His name is Yanni, a skinny guy with a glassy look in his eyes softened by a glint of non-conformity. He carries himself with respect and delicacy, and sooner or later you will come across him if you have fallen in love with this unique music and start frequenting the right places in Athens, the old-time venues that cannot be named because they have to stay on the margins of the law. You will see him bent over his tsipouro, the Greek version of grappa, and his cigarettes rolled from the best tobacco. A blond dandy, a peaceful rebel. Yanni Litovchenko smokes like a rebetis, a rebetiko musician, but he does not play and does not sing. He sits on the margins of these rooms full of music and ashtrays. And he listens. He dreams. Sometimes he will let out a yell or sing a verse under his breath. He has a passion for this music, and if you fall under its spell, succumb to the tales that he tells and his amazing night-time pilgrimages, perhaps you might have the same experience as me. At the beginning I thought he was just an unusual character.
