LIFE IN THE TOMB
Εκδότης: COSMOS PUBLISHING Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3963-0005 «Life in the tomb has moments of great literary beauty and of more than one kind of literary power. In 1917, Myrivilis was twenty-five. "Before I entered the trenches I had not the slightest inkling of life's true worth. From now on, however, I shall savour its moments one by one... This... truthful fiction... [makes] one see... It is antiheroic and completely convincing» (Peter Levi), «[Peter Bien] has turned a Greek masterpiece into something not much less than an English one» (C.M. Woodhouse, Times Literary Supplement).... Διαβάστε περισσότερα... |

THE COLLECTED POEMS OF NIKOS KAVADIAS (ΔΙΓΛΩΣΣΗ ΕΚΔΟΣΗ)
Εκδότης: COSMOS PUBLISHING Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3963-0003 It is from the open sea's horizon that he draws his inspiration. The anchor, the fo'c'sle, the marabou and brothels in various exotic countries, excite his imagination to the point that the world of the sea becomes a metaphor for his poetic philosophy. (. . .) His erotic ideal is Fata Morgana, a beautiful woman in Celtic myth, heralding disaster; just like the sea that seduces and drowns. Kavadias turned his profession into poetry. Does this explain the unique charm of his poetry? It certainly suggests the added difficulty that it must hav... Διαβάστε περισσότερα... |

BILINGUAL EDITION (GREEK-ENGLISH)
Εκδότης: COSMOS PUBLISHING Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3963-0000 This volume is an offering by four American translators no one of whom is a native speaker of Greek but each of whom has discovered the riches of the modern Greek language not so much in school as owing to long familiarity with Greece, its people, and its literature. The poems collected here in translation constitute our thanks to twentieth-century Greek poets for giving us so very much. Our offering is meant, however, to honor not just twentieth-century practitioners but the entire corpus of Greek poetry. Individual poets do not exist alo... Διαβάστε περισσότερα... |

BEYOND THE BROKEN STATUES
MODERN GREEK SHORT STORIES
Εκδότης: COSMOS PUBLISHING Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3963-0006 [...] In the century represented by these stories - roughly 1870 to 1970 - Greece produced two Nobel laureates in literature, George Seferis and Odysseas Elytis. It also produced at least three others - Kostis Palamas, Nikos Kazantzakis, and Yannis Ritsos (not to mention a fourth who lived in Egypt, Constantine Cavafy - whose stature was grand enough for a Novel Prize). Interestingly, with the exception of Kazantzakis, all of these figures were poets. The marvelous literary renaissance enjoyed by Greece in the twentieth century [...] was s...

A NOVEL
Εκδότης: COSMOS PUBLISHING Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3963-0007
Διαφορά από τιμή Έκδοσης -20%, φθηνότερα -€4.26 The relationship between a successful director of Greek tragedy, a young actress and Euripides might be obvious if it wasn't so confusing. If, that is, the director didn't regard his production of the Bacchae as being his last, if the young actress wasn't basically untalented, and if Euripides didn't make his appearance on stage as a ghost during the play's performance. With the pace of a thriller, this unusual existential novel by Takis Theodoropoulos weaves the threads of a story in which, against the background of a production of the Ba...
