Book excerpt: Often compared during his lifetime to T.S. Eliot, whose work he translated and introduced to Greece, George Seferis is noted for his spare, laconic, dense and allusive verse in the Modernist idiom of the first half of the twentieth century. At once intensely Greek and a cosmopolitan of his time (he was a career-diplomat as well as a poet), Seferis better than any other writer expresses the dilemma experienced by his countrymen then and now: how to be at once Greek and modern. The translations that make up this volume are the fruit of more than forty years, and many are published here for the first time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Seferis' speech at the Swedish AcademyI belong to a small country. A rocky promontory in the Mediterranean, it has nothing to distinguish it but the efforts of its people, the sea, and the light of the sun. It is a small country, but its tradition is immense and has been handed down through the centuries without interruption. The Greek language has never ceased to be spoken. It has undergone the changes that all living things experience, but there has never been a gap. This tradition is characterized by love of the human; justice is its norm. In the tightly organized classical tragedies the man who exceeds his measure is punished by the Erinyes. And this norm of justice holds even in the realm of nature.«Helios will not overstep his measure»; says Heraclitus, «otherwise the Erinyes, the ministers of Justice, will find him out». A modern scientist might profit by pondering this aphorism of the Ionian philosopher......In our gradually shrinking world, everyone is in need of all the others. We must look for man wherever we can find him. When on his way to Thebes Oedipus encountered the Sphinx, his answer to its riddle was: «Man». That simple word destroyed the monster. We have many monsters to destroy. Let us think of the answer of Oedipus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2017 in the subject Literature - Basics, grade: 90.00, , course: Poetry, language: English, abstract: A close reading of Seferis' poem Helen including elements around the Greek myth as the background of the poem. A verse by verse examination is done for crucial verses in the poem and potential meanings are discussed. Seferis’ “Helen” is written in free verse and does not feature a fixed rhyme scheme straying this way away from traditional forms of poetry. While the poem is written in a modernist form, the mythical element is overwhelming in the poem, a contradiction that connects the present with the past. The poem’s epigraph sets the mythological background which relates the poem to the Greek mythology tradition. Homer’s myth about Paris’ choice of Helen as fairer than goddesses lingers in the background as the basis of all that follows and as the initial cause of the Trojan War. In the first three verses of the epigraph, it is established that the speaker is in exile ordered by “Appolow”, a man away from his home. Finally the epigraph, informs in the words of Helen that she was never in Troy, instead there was just a phantom image of hers there. The myth sets the context of the poem while the myths are further elaborated as the memories of the speaker who reminisces in a dramatic monologue triggered by the nightingale’s song and his inability to sleep, tormented by these memories. The repetition of the phrase “The nightingales won’t let you sleep in Platres”, written in quotation marks as if someone else is uttering them, also points to the use of the chorus in the ancient tragedy form, in which the chorus often repeats certain words connecting the poem even more to the ancient Greek mythology tradition.

Fifty-one texts illustrate the evolution of modernism in the east-European region. Essays, articles, poems, or excerpts from longer works offer new opportunities of possible comparisons of the respective national cultures, from the different ideological approaches and finessing projects of how to create the modern state liberal, conservative, socialist and others to the literary and scientific attempts at squaring the circle of individual and collective identities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this new edition of George Seferis's poems, the acclaimed translations by Edmund Keeley and Philip Sherrard are revised and presented in a compact, English-only volume. The revision covers all the poems published in Princeton's earlier bilingual edition, George Seferis: Collected Poems (expanded edition, 1981). Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1963, George Seferis (1900-1971) has long been recognized as a major international figure, and Keeley and Sherrard are his ideal translators. They create, in the words of Archibald MacLeish, a "translation worthy of Seferis, which is to praise it as highly as it could be praised." Although Seferis was preoccupied with his tradition as few other poets of the same generation were with theirs, and although he was actively engaged in the immediate political aspirations of his nation, his value for readers lies in what he made of this preoccupation and this engagement in fashioning a broad poetic vision. He is also known for his stylistic purity, which allows no embellishment beyond that necessary for precise yet rich poetic statement.

Book excerpt: The Greek poet C. P. Cavafy (1863-1933) lived most of his life in Alexandria, where he was content to circulate his work only among a select group of readers; but since his death he has come to be recognised and widely enjoyed as one of the great poets of the century in any language, remarkable for his use of dramatic forms and plain language within elegant formal structures, for his brilliant reanimation of myth and for his subtle treatment of erotic experience. Lawrence Durrell has written of this masterly translation: 'Cavafy has now at last fallen upon translators who can do justice to his wry melodious poems, glinting with insight as if from veins of mica.'
