  • Window on Cyprus
    WINDOW ON CYPRUS “Cyprus is not a detail, a mere island at the edge of the Mediterranean Sea; today it has been transformed into the fateful centre, where the moral values of contemporary man are at stake. ... For us this is a good moment to forget our passions and our petty cares; for each man of us with his own God- given gifts to follow the path of freedom throughout the land of Cyprus. And we must share her grief, her upsurge, her danger, insofar as we are capable, and surely later on her great joy as well.” Nikos Kazantzakis (From his essay “The Angels of Cyprus”). Gold-green leaf Land of the lemon and the olive tree land of warm embraces, land of joy land of the pine and the cypress tree land of fine young men, land of love a gold-green leaf cast upon the open sea Land of the parched prairie land of the bitter Virgin land of the warm wind and unfair loss land of wild weather and volcanoes a gold-green leaf cast upon the open sea Land of the laughing girls land of the tipsy boys land of unction and salutations Cyprus, land of love and dreams a gold-green leaf cast upon the open sea Leonidas Malenis (Translated by John Vickers) window on cyprus P.I.O. 219/2015 - 4.000 Photography: The majority of the photographs used ISBN 978-9963-50-351-3 in the book come from the photographic archive of the Press and Information Offi ce.

Το μόνο που τους έμενε πατρογονικό ήταν μια ελληνική γιορτή, με τελετές ωραίες, με λύρες και με αυλούς, με αγώνας και στεφάνους. Κ΄είχαν συνήθειο προς το τέλος της γιορτής τα παλαία τους έθιμα να διηγούνται, και τα ελληνικά ονόματα ξαναλένε, που μολίς πια τα καταλάμβαναν ολίγοι. Και πάντα μελαγχολικά τελείων’ η γιορτή τους. Γιατί θυμούνταν που κι’ αυτοί ήσαν Έλληνες – Ιταλιώται έναν καιρό κι’ αυτοί. Και τώρα πώς εξέπεσαν, πως έγιναν, να ζούν και να ομιλούν βαραβαρικά βγαλμένοι –ώ συμφορά!- απ’ τον ελληνισμό. Poseidonians The Poseidonians forgot the Greek language after so many centuries of mingling with Tyrrhenians, Latins, and other foreigners. The only thing surviving from their ancestors was a Greek festival, with beautiful rites, with lyres and flutes, contests and wreaths.
