Greek literary centenary commemorations
Overview
Various events are being held in Greece to mark the 100th anniversary of the births of significant literary figures.
In Nafplio, a three day event titled ‘The Seeker of the Deep Surface – Perspectives on the Poetry of N. Karouzos’ commemorates the poet Nikos Karouzos. Organized by the Municipality of Nafplio and the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, the program includes academic presentations, a round table discussion, an art exhibition, and musical performances. Scholars noted Karouzos’ ability to transcend post-war Greek poetry through a synthesis of Orthodoxy and Communism.
In Patras, the University of Patras, Kichli Publications, and the Polyedro bookstore are organizing an event to honor prose writer Nikos Kachitsis. The commemoration focuses on his literary legacy and his life in exile after moving to Montreal in 1956. Speakers will discuss how his early years in Patras during the Occupation and Civil War influenced his writing.
