Sin, Suffering, and the Search for Belonging: George Vizyenos's Literary World by Yena Kwak

Introduction George Vizyenos (1849–1896) stands as a seminal figure in modern Greek literature, adeptly weaving personal experience with historical and cultural reflections in his fiction. His narratives delve into the intricate landscapes of memory, loss, and belonging, echoing broader themes of Greek identity and diaspora.

The form of Dramatic Monologue as perfected by Ritsos’ poetry.

Yannis Ritsos is widely regarded as one of the most significant figures in contemporary Greek poetry. He managed to revolutionise the idea of a dramatic monologue and create not just beautiful poetry, but also a multifaceted art form that has depth on psychological, social, and philosophical levels throughout all of his publications. The dramatic monologue form was popularised by Victorian poets such as Robert Browning, but Ritsos revitalised it and many poets to this day still use his style as inspiration. His ability to construct identities and characters that the reader can genuinely sense and almost experience is skilful.

In Ritsos’ Moonlight Sonata what sentiments does the woman’s confession provoke/inspire to you and how these compare to the ones felt by the young man who remains silent throughout her long monologue.

Yannis Ritsos' "Moonlight Sonata" is a poignant and emotionally charged poem that presents a deeply intimate monologue of a woman speaking to a silent young man. The setting is night, with the moonlight casting a dreamlike atmosphere over the scene. The woman's confession, filled with personal revelations, memories, and emotions, evokes a variety of sentiments in the reader and provokes a complex response.

Theatricality, didacticism, prosaic verse, use of persons as symbols, contemplative mood, flashbacks are some of Cavafy’s recurring ‘tropes’. Discuss.

Within the vast poetry collection of Constantine Cavafy, arguably, a pattern of recurring tropes emerges, offering the readers an in depth understanding of what defines his artistry. The poems that I have chosen for this essay being Young Men of Sidon, Alexandrian Kings and Kaisarion, from his book The Collected poems. One might say that they serve as an example of Cavafy’s gravitation towards an array of literary devices such as theatricality, didacticism, prosaic verse, use of persons as symbols, contemplative mood and flashbacks, one might say that they create a narrative that extends beyond the individual poems, inviting us to explore the timeless themes captured by Cavafy.

How does Seferis’ mythical method interact with Greece’s lasting socio-political issues?

Seferis uses the mythical method in his poetry to allude to and comment upon social and political issues in Greece in his lifetime. Before discussing his poetry, it is important to define what is meant by Seferis’ mythical method. This method can be described as allusive, as although Seferis does make direct references to myth he does so in inventive ways, for example by using narrative space, symbols and characters to evoke Greek myths.

Νέα Ελληνικά στο FASK

Πάνος Σεράνης

Τμήμα Εφαρμοσμένης Γλωσσολογίας και Πολιτισμικών Σπουδών, Πανεπιστήμιο του Mainz/Germersheim,Γερμανία

Το 1994 ιδρύθηκε το τμήμα Νέων Ελληνικών στο FASK, το μοναδικό τμήμα εκπαίδευσης μεταφραστών με 1η ή 2η ξένη γλώσσα τα Νέα Ελληνικά. Το νεοελληνικό τμήμα προσέφερε παράλληλα μαθήματα και για τους ελληνόφωνους φοιτητές. Κατʼ αυτόν τον τρόπο λειτούργησε ως κόμβος συνάντησης και πολιτιστικής ανταλλαγής μεταξύ νέων ανθρώπων, υπηρετώντας έτσι και τις δύο χώρες.

James Stewart, a 3rd year student of mine, followed my 'Introduction to Modern Greek Literature' courses and was fascinated enough to produce an excellent essay on last year, also on Seferis, and this hearfelt and sophisticated dissertation "an excellent piece of work, particularly sophisticated discussion of time and temporality in Seferis" in the external examiner's own words."

Δύο ιστοσελίδες με ασκήσεις και λεξικό

Νίκος Μακροδήμος
Αγαπητοί συνάδελφοι,

Δεν θυμάμαι αν έχω καταθέσει μια σελίδα που έχω κάνει με ασκήσεις on line:
http://thranio.googlepages.com/
για την εξάσκηση των μαθητών μου.

Επίσης, πρόσφατα ξεκινήσαμε με τους μαθητές ένα δικτυακό ελληνο-ελληνικό λεξικό που φτιάχνουν μόνοι τους. Είναι ακόμα μικρό αλλά είναι μια καλή ιδέα για όσους από σας θα ήθελαν να δοκιμάσουν κάτι παρόμοιο.

Σίσσυ Αθανασοπούλου

Ένα φιλμ μικρού μήκους με αγγλικούς υπότιτλους. Διαπραγματεύεται το λεπτό θέμα της σχέσης των παιδιών με τους ηλικιωμένους γονείς τους. Είναι κατάλληλο για τη διδασκαλία της ελληνικής γλώσσας, γιατί έχει μικρούς και κατανοητούς διαλόγους.

Αν δεν μπορείτε να δείτε το φιλμ, κατεβάστε έναν αποκωδικοποιητή από τις διευθύνσεις http://www.koepi.info/Xvid-1.2.1-04122008.exe ή http://www.free-codecs.com/FFDshow_download.htm
