    I am a small independent publisher, working from the island of Euboea, or Evia as it pronounced in Greek. The books I publish are primarily, but not exclusively, concerned with various manifestations of what is somewhat inadequately termed as modern Greek culture — its literature, history and music, its natural beauty and forms of life in both city and country, how Greek people see themselves and others, and how others see them, and the Orthodox Church that is the matrix within which much of what can be defined as modern Greek culture has been formed.\n
    <div>\n
    </div><div>I first came to Greece from the West more than forty years ago, but it took me many years to learn that there was a Greece to pursue beyond the demarcations of history and dates and its physical beauty, a beauty still almost painfully vibrant where insensitive development and exploitation have not yet sullied it. I hope that some of the books listed on this site will be able to act as pointers for others who have sensed there is also something beyond that which immediately gives them delight and pleasure in the Greece they encounter today.\n
    </div><div>It is not at all that Greece has a monopoly of the 'other'; in all cultures where tradition is still living there is the 'other', waiting to be disclosed to those who have had intimations of it and who have then gone in search of it. I think, however, it is a little different for us westerners, for, as Cyril Connolly remarked, 'an affection for Greece seems to most of us now something we are born with', and it is this inheritance which can give us an unexpected way-in to what has been described as 'the other mind of Europe'.\n
    </div><div>Many have attempted to describe this 'other mind'. Below are extracts from three writers, some of whose books are available through this site, who each delineate a different aspect of it in their own inimitable way.</div><div>\n

      +"description": "<p>&quot;Loxandra&quot; is the story of a Greek family living in Constantinople (Istanbul) from the mid-18th century up to the beginning of the First World War. It is not biographical as such, and many of the characters are fictional. Others, including the main character of Loxandra, are real. Constantinople was the author`s home during the first years of her life and in her book she conveys the historical events, the customs, the spirit of those times when life for the Greeks of Constantinople was relatively untroubled. The real Loxandra was brought up in the Anatolian tradition of love of good food; culinary delights flowed from her hands and her kitchen as from the horn of plenty, and her generosity and enthusiasm for life and food was not confined to her family but spilled over to whomsoever she had contact with.</p><p>The Greek edition of Loxandra , first published in 1963, has been perhaps the most acclaimed and best-selling popular publication in Greece of the 20th century and remains continuously in print.</p>"

      +"description": "<p>Lambros Kamperidis`s study of Peris Ieremiadis is a work of therapy for our times. Not our modern introspection, but therapeia, the attending to and healing of wounds that sever the relationships between ourselves and others. This therapy is bodily, visceral, full of colour and of darkness. The death of his friend who spent his last creative energies painting variations of dragon-slaying Saint George on his regal horse triggers in Kamperidis an exuberant litany of associations, a delicate interlace linking pagan and Christian, Germanic and Greek, spiritual heroes and evil monsters. Kamperidis makes us all part of the interlace, for it is precisely through awareness of our interconnected nature that the therapy can begin to work. Through the impatient and spell-binding movements of his imagination, Kamperidis shows the reader how to reconnect the pieces in a fragmented world.</p><p>Elizabeth Key Fowden</p><p><br>The author of this book endeavours to show that human existence cannot be understood only by the laws that govern natural life. The human person emerges out of the struggle with the forces that are lurking to annihilate the freedom of the human being. What finally emerges is the free person, endowed with a unique and distinct soul, a singular existence owing his or her being not to biological origins but to a destination pointing towards eternity. Often, this encounter takes the form of artistic creation, as in the case of Peris Ieremiadis, the painter whose struggle with the evil of illness and his numerous depictions of Saint George inspired Lambros Kamperidis to create this work `towards a Life of the Saint for our times`.</p><p>Lakis Proguidis</p>"

      +"description": "<p>&quot;...this dialectic of blood and light<br>which is the history of your people...&quot;<br>Sherrard to Seferis, 20 March 1950</p><p>Philip Sherrard first came across George Seferis`s poetry when as a young man still in the army he was transferred to Greece in 1946. It made such a powerful impression on him that when he returned to England he started corresponding with Seferis, began translating his poetry into English, and ultimately decided to do his PhD on modern Greek poetry. Much later Sherrard was to translate, together with Edmund Keeley, Seferis`s Collected Poems for Princeton University Press. The Seferis - Sherrard correspondence is not vast, but nevertheless revealing of both men`s orientation, most particularly Sherrard`s as he became increasingly interested in the Christian Orthodox East, and who simultaneously with his involvement in Greek literature and especially modern Greek poetry went on to write a number of important theological studies. Included with the correspondence are the texts that the two men sent to each other and three studies of Seferis`s poetry written by Sherrard, the one published here for the first time. The book is introduced by the Emeritus Professor of Modern Greek at Oxford, Peter Mackridge, and the theologian Vincent Rossi, as well as by Sherrard himself in a text published here for the first time.<br>From &quot;The Other Mind of Europe&quot;, Philip Sherrard’s introductory essay to his correspondence with George Seferis:<br>&quot;I still remember my bewilderment when Seferis sent me a letter in which occur such phrases as: &quot;I have a very organic feeling which identifies my human life with the life of nature&quot;, and went on to speak of the Greek world - the world of Greek nature - as &quot;lines which occur and recur; bodies and features, the tragic silence of a face ... There is a process of humanization in the Greek light ... Just think of those cords that bind man and the elements of nature together, this tragedy which is at once natural and human, this intimacy. Just think how the light of day and man’s blood are one and the same thing. &quot;or when some passages from his diary were given to me, one of which read: I know that all my life will not be sufficient to express what I have been trying to express for so long: this union of nature with the simple human body.&quot; It is as if Seferis thought, not by discursive reasoning, but intuitively, in terms of natural objects, in terms of sensual images. It is as if the subject of his thought revealed itself to him not as an abstraction divorced from the rest of life, but in all its relationships not only to other ideas but to nature as well.’</p>"

      +"description": "<p>Elder Porphyrios of Kavsokalyvia (1906-1991), who was formally glorified as a saint by the Holy Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarchate in November 2013, has long been acknowledged and recognized as a luminary and spiritual guide with the special grace of `clear sight`. His life was particularly remarkable in that he lived it in both ascetic fastnesses and urban contexts.<br>He left the world for Mount Athos at a young age and joined the Skete of Kavsokalyvia where, for seven years, under the guidance of the Elders Panteleimon and Ioannikios he lived a hesychastic life. It was there he underwent his most powerful formative experiences and received his gift of grace, and he always considered it his spiritual home. Bad health, however, forced him to return to the world and, after a number of years on his native island of Evia, at the beginning of the Second World War in Greece he was appointed chaplain of the Polyclinic Hospital next to Omonia Square in the heart of the city of Athens. After thirty-three years at the Polyclinic he retired first to his monastic retreat in the tiny monastery of St Nicholas at Kallisia, north of Athens, and later went on to found the Holy Monastery of the Transfiguration at Milesi. In 1991, seeing his life was nearing its end, he returned to his hermitage on the Holy Mountain where he fell asleep in the Lord on 2 December.</p><p></p><p>This short study of the life and teaching of Saint Porphyrios is, in the words of its author Athanasios Papathanasiou, `an exercise in encounter with the present`. He takes into consideration present realities and conditions, both in the Church and society, and in the light of theology understood as a living discipline endeavours to determine certain particular qualities of the saint, drawing particularly on the saint`s own words as recorded in the book Wounded by Love. His insights and interpretations have an immediacy and freshness of singular relevance to our perception of what constitutes a holy personage in the modern world and point to how we can reorient our thinking accordingly.</p>"

      +"description": "<p>&quot;The Blind Man with the Lamp&quot;, originally published in Greek in 1983, is the first English translation of a complete collection of poetry by Leivaditis. A pioneering book of prose-poems, Leivaditis here gives powerful voice to a post-war generation divested of ideologies and illusions, imbued with the pain of loss and mourning, while endlessly questing for something wholly other, indeed for the holy Other.</p><p>A substantial introduction by the translator, N. N. Trakakis, situates and reviews the poet and his work within his times with special reference to this present collection.</p>"
