Book Description
Photography as a technique is in essence a process of faithfully depicting the objective world. With the aid of technology, however, and especially through the sensitisation and more profound activation of visual perception, it was rapidly transformed into a creative art. This book presents a superb sample of the work of the unique photographer of Larissa, who served photography as a creative art, on the basis of his personal aesthetic and his profound belief in the importance of research. The present book is therefore much more than an album of fine photographs. It attempts to demonstrate how he viewed nature and men through his photographic lens, in order to provide us with the truths of a world that the rest of us have not learned to see.

Tzili
Author: Aharon Appelfeld
Publisher: Schocken
ISBN: 0805212531
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
The youngest, least-favored member of an Eastern European Jewish family, Tzili is considered an embarrassment by her parents and older siblings. Her schooling has been a failure, she is simple and meek, and she seems more at home with the animals in the field than with people. And so when her panic-stricken family flees the encroaching Nazi armies, Tzili is left behind to fend for herself. At first seeking refuge with the local peasants, she is eventually forced to escape from them as well, and she takes to the forest, living a solitary existence until she is discovered by another Jewish refugee, a man who is as alone in the world as she is. As she matures into womanhood, they fall in love. And though their time together is tragically brief, their love for each other imbues Tzili with the strength to survive the war and begin a new life, together with other survivors, in Palestine. Aharon Appelfeld imbues Tzili’s story with a harrowing beauty that is emblematic of the fate of an entire people.

Fields of Wheat, Hills of Blood
Author: Anastasia N. Karakasidou
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226424995
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 368
Book Description
Deftly combining archival sources with evocative life histories, Anastasia Karakasidou brings welcome clarity to the contentious debate over ethnic identities and nationalist ideologies in Greek Macedonia. Her vivid and detailed account demonstrates that contrary to official rhetoric, the current people of Greek Macedonia ultimately derive from profoundly diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. Throughout the last century, a succession of regional and world conflicts, economic migrations, and shifting state formations has engendered an intricate pattern of population movements and refugee resettlements across the region. Unraveling the complex social, political, and economic processes through which these disparate peoples have become culturally amalgamated within an overarchingly Greek national identity, this book provides an important corrective to the Macedonian picture and an insightful analysis of the often volatile conjunction of ethnicities and nationalisms in the twentieth century. "Combining the thoughtful use of theory with a vivid historical ethnography, this is an important, courageous, and pioneering work which opens up the whole issue of nation-building in northern Greece."—Mark Mazower, University of Sussex
