<p>Lorenzatos is generally acknowledged to be the most important living man of letters in Greece. An essayist, poet and thinker, he is perhaps the last of his generation with a vision that is both deeply religious and humane. His profound knowledge of European literature and thought, and his familiarity with the writings and philosophy of the East, along with his thorough assimilation of the long Greek tradition, enable him to explore, with unusual insight, the spirit both of Europe and of modern Greece.This second edition of his essays to be published in English includes his studies on the Greek writers Papadiamandis, Sikelianos and Capetanakis, and on the architect Dimitris Pikionis; and it concludes with a lengthy and penetrating discussion of the American poet Ezra Pound, who visited Greece and met Lorenzatos in 1965.</p>
