Sinds Hesselings 'Geschiedenis der Nieuwgrieksche letterkunde' uit 1921 is het Nederlandse taalgebied verstoken gebleven van een systematisch overzicht van de Nieuwgriekse literatuurgeschiedenis. 'Inleiding in de Nieuwgriekse literatuur' van Pieter Borghart, tracht hieraan te verhelpen. Het begint met de literatuur uit de Komneense periode en Palaiologentijd (12de-14de eeuw), behandelt een aantal vroegmoderne (renaissance, Verlichting) en moderne (romantiek, realisme, modernisme) cultuurhistorische en literaire periodes, om af te sluiten met een overzicht van de - vaak postmoderne - literatuur uit het hedendaagse Griekenland. Hoewel de Nieuwgriekse letteren zich door de eeuwen heen steeds ontwikkeld hebben op het ritme van de West-Europese literatuurgeschiedenis, benadrukt dit boek vooral de creatieve wijze waarop deze invloeden hebben bijgedragen tot een literair universum met een unieke stem. Aan de hand van representatieve fragmenten krijgt me een persoonlijk overzicht van de Nieuwgriekse literatuur van ontstaan tot nu.

In this monograph, Dr. Comatsos analyzes the utilization of female narrators in Greek fiction from 1924-1962 and connects the appearance of women in the public sphere in Greece. The author examines female narrators in nine novels written by both male and female authors using narratology, feminism, and Bakhtin's polyphony in her inquiry. She follows the emergence of the female "I" from private forms of writing (diary, journals) to more public ones. She shows how male authors (here, Grigorios Xenopoulos and Nikos Katiforis) use a female voice to justify male patriarchal ideologies. Additionally,

Conversing Identities: Encounters Between British, Irish and Greek Poetry, 1922-1952 presents a panorama of cultures brought in dialogue through travel, immigration and translation set against the insularity imposed by war and the hegemony of the national centre in the period 1922-1952. Each chapter tells a story within a specific time and space that connected the challenges and fissures experienced in two cultures with the goal to explore how the post-1922 accentuated mobility across frontiers found an appropriate expression in the work of the poets under consideration. Either influenced by their actual travel to Britain or Greece or divided in their various allegiances and reactions to national or imperial sovereignty, the poets examined explored the possibilities of a metaphorical diasporic sense of belonging within the multicultural metropolis and created personae to indicate the tension at the contact of the old and the new, the hypocritical parody of mixed breeds and the need for modern heroes to avoid national or gendered stereotypes. The main coordinates were the national voices of W.B. Yeats and Kostes Palamas, T.S. Eliot’s multilingual outlook as an Anglo-American métoikos , C.P. Cavafy’s view as a Greek of the diaspora, displaced William Plomer’s portrayal of 1930s Athens, Demetrios Capetanakis’ journey to the British metropolis, John Lehmann’s antithetical journey eastward, as well as Louis MacNeice’s complex loyalties to a national identity and sense of belonging as an Irish classicist, translator and traveller.
