Συγγραφέας: Dimitris Dimitriadis
  • Homeriad is a saga about the non-return, of the battle with nostalgia as a vital necessity for existence. Inverting the Homeric concept of nostos [longing], Dimitriadis perceives the return – the homecoming – as opposing the destination, and the desire to go back as destructive.   I am Ithaca I am Odysseus I am not Ithaca I am Ithaca and Odysseus I am not Odysseus   I am Ithaca that lost Odysseus I am Odysseus who Ithaca lost   I am not Odysseus I am Ithaca Odysseus Ithaca   Odysseus She killed me   Ithaca I killed him   Me and him Her and I   Now […]   The play has been translated into French, Spanish, English, Italian, Russian, German, Portuguese and Arabic.
