Event Details
Ο Καρυωτάκης έχει χαρακτηριστεί από όλους σχεδόν τους κριτικούς ως ο σπουδαιότερος ποιητής της γενιάς του, την οποία οι μελετητής αποκαλούν Γενιά του 1920. Ποια είναι τα ιδιαίτερα γνωρίσματα του ποιητικού του έργου και πώς απεικονίζεται σε αυτό η κοινωνική πραγματικότητα; Γιατί η ποίησή του συνδέθηκε με τον τύπο των «καταραμένων» («poètes maudits») Γάλλων ποιητών; Πώς υποδέχτηκε το έργο του η Γενιά του 1930 και η μεταπολεμική κριτική; Αυτά είναι μερικά από τα ερωτήματα που θα συζητηθούν στο πλαίσιο της διάλεξης.

Karyotakis has been considered by almost all critics as the greatest poet of his generation, which scholars call the Generation of 1920. What are the distinctive features of his poetic work and how does it reflect social reality? Why was his poetry associated with the poetry of the French «les poètes maudits»? How was his work received by the Generation of 1930 and postwar critics? These are some of the questions that will be discussed in the lecture.
