Greek Writers and their Times (2019)   (R)   
Documentary / Arts - Literature





A series of independent, self-contained documentaries presenting literary personalities, poets or prose writers, always in relation to the social reality that contributed to the shaping of their work. In order to better "approach" them, the episodes present footage from public and private archives, while professors and scholars speak about them and their work, with the aim of enriching the viewers' knowledge with new perspectives.

Today: "Kostas Georgousopoulos - K.H. Myris" - Part I

(A tribute to Kostas Georgousopoulos, who passed away on December 6, 2024)

Kostas Georgousopoulos was born in Lamia in 1937.

He studied at the School of Philosophy of the University of Athens (Department of History and Archaeology) and theater at the Drama School of the Athens Conservatory, under the guidance of Dimitris Rondiris and Yiannis Sideris. He worked in private education.

In 1978, he was commissioned by the Ministry of Education and Religious Affairs to curate the book Dramatic Poetry, which was used as a teaching text in Greek secondary schools for many years.

Since 2003, he had been the president of the Center for the Study and Research of Greek Theater – Theater Museum.

He authored studies on theater and reviews of performances.

Under the pen name K.H. Myris, he published the poetry collection Amichanon Technima (1971, 1980, along with Parabasis), the short stories The Bell and Odax (1985), and a collection of songs set to music by renowned composers (Chronicle, The Great Vigil, Citizenship, Independent Songs, 1980).

With the same pseudonym, he signed a substantial body of translations, primarily focused on ancient drama.

He also served as a scientific associate in the Department of Theater Studies at the University of Athens. Additionally, he held the position of Chairman of the Board at the National Theater and, for two decades, chaired the Theater Committee of the Ministry of Culture.
