Book Synopsis Census of Modern Greek Literature by : Dia Mary L. Philippides
Download or read book Census of Modern Greek Literature written by Dia Mary L. Philippides and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The CENSUS OF MODERN GREEK LITERATURE aims at presenting, to English speakers, references to the works of Greek authors translated into English & to the critical essays written in English on modern Greek literature within the period 1824-1987. The literature included in the check-list ranges from approximately the eleventh century to the present day. This accords in scope & outline with the HISTORY OF MODERN GREEK LITERATURE by Linos Politis (Oxford University Press, 1973). The check-list includes all the appropriate material that the compiler was able to find in libraries & bibliographies from several countries. It is divided into seven chapters: Bibliographical Sources, Journals (regularly containing material in English from modern Greek literature), Special Issues of Journals (dedicated for a single time to modern Greek literature), Anthologies, Books of Collected Essays, Literary History (containing general histories of modern Greek literature, most of the literary material preceding the nineteenth century, & critical essays referring to more than a single author), Authors (listing the authors of the nineteenth & twentieth centuries alphabetically by their last names). "Philippides' book will be an indispensable guide for all English-speaking teachers & students of modern Greek literature."--(Peter Mackridge, Oxford University).

Book Synopsis Retelling the Past in Contemporary Greek Literature, Film, and Popular Culture by : Trine Stauning Willert
Download or read book Retelling the Past in Contemporary Greek Literature, Film, and Popular Culture written by Trine Stauning Willert and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with historical consciousness and its artistic expressions in contemporary Greece since 1989 from the point of view that contemporary Greeks have been faced with the contradictions between on the one hand a glorious, world-famous yet distant past and, on the other, a traumatic contemporary history of wars, expulsions, civil strife and political and economic crises. Such clashes of imaginary identifications and collective traumas call for interpretations not only from historians but also from artists and storytellers. Therefore, the chapters in this volume explore the ways in which sensitive and creative perspectives of art approach and appropriate history in Greece. Through a rich collection of analytical case studies and creative reflections on Greece’s past, present, and future this volume presents the reader with the ways a set of contemporary Greek storytellers in different genres have incorporated previously under-explored or little-known themes, events, and epochs in modern Greek history showing how the past, by being interpreted and represented in the present, can teach us a lot about contemporary Greek society. The themes that form the point of departure for the stories told or retold cover various significant components of Greek history and culture such as ancient myths, the Ottoman period, the Greek War of Independence and the Greek Civil War, but also less prominent or known aspects of Greek history such as the Greek Enlightenment, the long and tragic history of Greek Jewry, and migration to and from Greece.

Book Synopsis Reading Games in the Greek Novel by : Eleni Papargyriou
Download or read book Reading Games in the Greek Novel written by Eleni Papargyriou and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-02 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "How is play constituent in the formation of the Greek modernist novel? Reflecting competition with European and North American models as well as internal antagonism with more established literary genres in Greece, the novel after the 1930s employed playfulness as a means to demonstrate or even perform its novelty. Innovations unexpectedly came from the Greek periphery rather than Athens, and the Greek novel swiftly exchanged a passively understood realism for communicative patterns that actively involve the reader and educate him into bringing scraps of plot into a meaningful synthesis. Featuring key Greek authors such as Yannis Skarimbas, Stratis Tsirkas and Nikos Kachtitsis, this is a comprehensive and innovative study of Greek modernist prose fiction and the first of its kind to appear in English. Eleni Papargyriou is Lecturer in Modern Greek Literature at Kings College London."

Book Synopsis Greece and Britain since 1945 Second Edition by : David Wills
Download or read book Greece and Britain since 1945 Second Edition written by David Wills and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03-17 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1945, the modern country and people of Greece were unknown to many Britons. This book explores the transformation and varying fortunes of Anglo-Greek relations since that time. The focus is on the perceptions and attitudes shown by British and Greek writers, audiences, and organisations. Greece and Britain Since 1945 contains chapters from leading academics, journalists, novelists, and public servants and covers subjects including literature by Greek writers in English translation; the work of the British Council and international aid agencies; and television series set in Greece. The second edition has been substantially updated to reflect the financial, economic and social effects of the recent “Greek Crisis”. Four specially-commissioned new chapters discuss how Greece has been portrayed in the British media and the responses of cultural organisations to the present needs of the Greek people.
Book Synopsis Encyclopedia of Greece and the Hellenic Tradition by : Graham Speake
Download or read book Encyclopedia of Greece and the Hellenic Tradition written by Graham Speake and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-01-31 with total page 1941 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hellenism is the living culture of the Greek-speaking peoples and has a continuing history of more than 3,500 years. The Encyclopedia of Greece and the Hellenic Tradition contains approximately 900 entries devoted to people, places, periods, events, and themes, examining every aspect of that culture from the Bronze Age to the present day. The focus throughout is on the Greeks themselves, and the continuities within their own cultural tradition. Language and religion are perhaps the most obvious vehicles of continuity; but there have been many others--law, taxation, gardens, music, magic, education, shipping, and countless other elements have all played their part in maintaining this unique culture. Today, Greek arts have blossomed again; Greece has taken its place in the European Union; Greeks control a substantial proportion of the world's merchant marine; and Greek communities in the United States, Australia, and South Africa have carried the Hellenic tradition throughout the world. This is the first reference work to embrace all aspects of that tradition in every period of its existence.
