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 HellenicTradition 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.

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 excerpt: In this book, the author discusses 40 Greek plays written during the period of nationalization, modernization, and Westernization of the Greeks roughly bounded by their War of Independence in the 1820s and the restoration of the nation-state as a republic in the 1970s. The playwrights are Evanthia Kairi, Dimitrios Hatziaslanis, Kalliroi Siganou-Parren, Costis Palamas, Nikos Kazantzakis, Angelos Sikelianos, Iakovos Kambanellis, Giorgos Skourtis, Costas Mourselas, Stratis Karras, Antonis Matesis, and Loula Anagnostaki. Special attention is paid to the dramas of Kairi, Siganou-Parren, and Anagnostaki, three women who made valuable contributions in articulating and reshaping the concept of Hellenism for their audiences; the author compares their plays to better known ones written by Greek and non-Greek male dramatists who were their contemporaries and dealt with similar issues.
