I drew great joy from their reading." Takis Papatsonis of the Academy of Athens "The whole collection is held in the same tone, the same deeply moved aware­ ness of the function of poetry and of the "being" of man, that unspeakable loneliness." George Themelis "[Poems] very Greek. Rich. A scintillation of the potentialities of our lan­ guage, and a symphony of the grace and joy of sound ... A realm of bril­ liant forms of speech, which reveals itself' as inexhaustible to the sensitive reader. Words like returning, folding waves, and always multicolored, wet pebbles upon our friendly shores, the mythical ones that build dreams and knowledge and memory, the substance and treasure, of the poet." Zoe Karelli "They are both intimate and strong, and give one a sharp impression of values which I would have found it hard to enunciate, but which are, I suppose, the strongest .part of what is most intimate in the experience of life." Peter Levi, S.J. "A poetry so real and select, which has discovered its true country .. Narration 'and description, dream and thought, and all those "classical" elements of poetry that once gave it its self-sufficiency in the realm of life and that of the spirit .... It would not be an exaggeration to say that this book should also be viewed as a model of the technique and structure of the modern poem." D. P. Papaditsas "I am impressed by the lyricism, the substance and the value of their lan­ guage. The reader is held totally in a poetic ·as well as an emotional state ..•. Everywhere in this modest book the light of poetry asserts itself like starlight." Nikos Karouzos Available from THE CHARIOTE·ER, Box 2928 Grand Central Station, New York, N.Y. 10017. 144pp. $5.00.

Like the proverbial query about beating one's wife, the question shuts off discussion. Instead of lamenting the loss to literature, they have used the occasion to conduct post-mortems, analyzing the symp­ toms and diagnosing the causes of its demise. Some critics have blamed the debilitations imposed by the technical virtuosity of the two latest masters of the novel, Henry James and James Joyce. Their experiments with the shape of the novel, with the words and sentences which make up its fabric did, doubtless, reach extremes that left no room for rivals. Other critics have diagnosed the novel as a terminal case by explaining that the reasons no longer prevail whereby the novel justifies its existence either as a form of art or of entertainment or of communication. All these tasks have been taken over by the mass-media and are being performed more quickly and more efficiently. Certainly, even the most inveterate lover of the novel would not deny that the original justifications for its existence-that it serves society by uplifting the heart of its reader, that it nourishes his moral character, and never brings a blush to the maiden cheek-have long ceased to be valid. Judging by the raunchy scenes of violence and sex that have increasingly dominated modern fiction, "the heart" would seem to be the least vital organ of the contemporary reader. Whatever it was in him that de­ served to be called "moral character" has long since dissolved into whims of the moment and of personality. As for the maiden whose cheek is given to blushing, she has become as mythical as the unicorn. The reasons why she has become so and why heart and morality have lost their guiding power can be traced, some critics say, to the corruptive force of modern fiction. Others, however, insist that the fault is not in modern fiction; it merely reflects its source which is human life. Whatever view an independent ob­ server subscribes to-that fiction mirrors life or that life mirrors fiction-the descent into brutality was inevitable once the novelist abandoned his original moral purpose and aimed only to enter- 6 THE CHARIOTEER tain. How could it be otherwise, apologists for this descent maintain, when the contemporary reader is being systematically brutalized by social and intellectual forces which are themselves chaotic, unintelligible and inhuman? In literature as in life, a writer of popular fiction will claim, is not survival all? Hardly more than a lifetime ago, a Thackeray or a Dickens could hope to address several generations of one family on one occasion as they sat together through those long, pre-World-War twilights, reading, savoring, the words that the novelist had passionately united into phrases, sentences, scenes which took on an independent life of their own in the reader's mind. Hardly more than a lifetime ago, there was ample time for those words to stir concentric circles of meaning and wonder in the reader's being. The more they stayed with him, the more he felt them become a part of his world, the more they lent color and flavor to his awareness, and the more they helped to define and unify his sense of life. Now, two generations of one family rarely ever sit together on any occasion. If they do, it is usually because their attention is mesmerized by the television screen. On its magic face they watch simulations of life Hick past in a dazzling succession. Suc­ cession? No. That word implies sequence, one thing leading to another and another from the one before, according to some recognizable logic or justice. Succession in this instance is rather a juxtaposition in time, nothing more. A scene contrived to stun the viewer into vicarious horror gives way to a concoction of audio-visual impressions extolling the virtues of a deodorant or a diet-drink. This in tum evolves, according to the inexorable Darwinianism of survival on the air-waves, into the fanfare of a so-called comedy. Thus, the stuff of life is measured out, not even in anything so permanent or serviceable as Prufrock's coffee­ spoons, but in fifteen-minute intervals. The viewer's sense of life is at best made numb; at worst, it is drawn and quartered, as it were, on these fractions of the paid-for hour.

  • Transplanting Surrealism in Greece- a Scandal Or Not?
    International Journal of Social and Educational Innovation (IJSEIro) Volume 2 / Issue 3/ 2015 Transplanting Surrealism in Greece- a Scandal or Not? NIKA Maklena University of Tirana, Albania E-mail: [email protected] Received 26.01.2015; Accepted 10.02. 2015 Abstract Transplanting the surrealist movement and literature in Greece and feedback from the critics and philological and journalistic circles of the time is of special importance in the history of Modern Greek Literature. The Greek critics and readers who were used to a traditional, patriotic and strictly rule-conforming literature would find it hard to accept such a kind of literature. The modern Greek surrealist writers, in close cooperation mainly with French surrealist writers, would be subject to harsh criticism for their surrealist, absurd, weird and abstract productivity. All this reaction against the transplanting of surrealism in Greece caused the so called “surrealist scandal”, one of the biggest scandals in Greek letters. Keywords: Surrealism, Modern Greek Literature, criticism, surrealist scandal, transplanting, Greek letters 1. Introduction When Andre Breton published the First Surrealist Manifest in 1924, Greece had started to produce the first modern works of its literature. Everything modern arrives late in Greece due to a number of internal factors (poetic collection of Giorgios Seferis “Mythistorima” (1935) is considered as the first modern work in Greek literature according to Αlexandros Argyriou, History of Greek Literature and its perception over years between two World Wars (1918-1940), volume Α, Kastanioti Publications, Athens 2002, pp. 534-535). Yet, on the other hand Greek writers continued to strongly embrace the new modern spirit prevailing all over Europe.

  • The Explorations and Poetic Avenues of Nikos Kavvadias
    THE EXPLORATIONS AND POETIC AVENUES OF NIKOS KAVVADIAS IAKOVOS MENELAOU * ABSTRACT. This paper analyses some of the influences in Nikos Kavvadias’ (1910-1975) poetry. In particular – and without suggesting that such topic in Kavvadias’ poetry ends here – we will examine the influences of the French poet Charles Baudelaire and the English poet John Mase- field. Kavvadias is perhaps a sui generis case in Modern Greek literature, with a very distinct writing style. Although other Greek poets also wrote about the sea and their experiences during their travelling, Kavvadias’ references and descriptions of exotic ports, exotic women and cor- rupt elements introduce the reader into another world and dimension: the world of the sailor, where the fantasy element not only exists, but excites the reader’s imagination. Although the world which Kavvadias depicts is a mixture of fantasy with reality—and maybe an exaggerated version of the sailor’s life, the adventures which he describes in his poems derive from the ca- pacity of the poetic ego as a sailor and a passionate traveller. Without suggesting that Kavvadias wrote some sort of diary-poetry or that his poetry is clearly biographical, his poems should be seen in connection with his capacity as a sailor, and possibly the different stories he read or heard during his journeys. Kavvadias was familiar with Greek poetry and tradition, nonetheless in this article we focus on influences from non-Greek poets, which together with the descriptions of his distant journeys make Kavvadias’ poems what they are: exotic and fascinating narratives in verse. KEY WORDS: Kavvadias, Baudelaire, Masefield, comparative poetry Introduction From an early age to the end of his life, Kavvadias worked as a sailor, which is precisely why it can be argued that his poetry had been inspired by his numerous travels around the world.

  • Georgios Bikos' Music World: When Intuition Meets Rationality
    Kalliopi Stigka Georgios Bikos’ Music World: When Intuition Meets Rationality Abstract. Georgios Bikos (1967) is an unknown Greek contemporary composer. Composer, pianist, music teacher, sociologist, researcher and pedagogue are some of the expressions of the different facets of Bikos’ personality. Influenced by classical music as well as by contemporary music movements, Bikos expresses his thoughts and feelings, among others, through his original compositions in which often intuition meets rationality. Songs, music for solo instruments, choral music, chamber music and music for theatre have been created by Bikos over the last thirty years. As we are convinced that Bikos’ musical works are worth being known, in the frame of this paper, we wish, on the one hand, to present the unknown Greek composer and to expose his ideas about his sources of inspiration (poetry, politics etc.) and his creative principles through unedited private interviews, and on the other hand, to reveal the eventual meeting of intuition with rationality through specifically chosen musical extracts. Keywords: Greek contemporary music, Georgios Bikos, songs, music for solo instruments, choral music, chamber music, music for theatre. Introduction Rationality or intuition: by definition, is it about an eternal opposition or about a probable intercomple­ mentarity? The first concept, is expressed in Greek by the term “Λογική” [Logiki] which has its roots in the ancient Greek verb “λέγω” [lego] meaning “I speak/I propose”; from that verb also comes the term “λ/Λόγος” [Logos]. The “λόγος” [logos] refers to the capacity of the human being to use the language; it refers to the speech (discourse), to the words (paroles), whereas the “Λόγος” [Logos] which is a synonym of “Λογική” [Logiki] (rationality), it refers to the capacity of the human being to formulate his thoughts rationally and with argu­ ments and to formulate rational speech (Babiniotis 1998: 1023 and 1025; Academy of Athens 2014: 942).
