How far do words correspond to what they describe? Do they represent our thoughts? How do they relate to what we want to stay the same and what we’d like to change? How do everyday words differ from terms, those ‘wise’ comings together of thoughts and things? How consciously do we participate in the use of a word, and what do we know if its history, public or private?

Nasos Vagenas, poet and academic, and Anastasios-Ioannis D. Metaxas, professor emeritus, Athens University, will be exchanging words and opinions in a conversation chaired by the journalist, Tina Mandilara.

Entrance to all the events in the “Talks and Thoughts” Cycle is free and on a strictly first come, first served basis.

The distribution of entrance tickets begins one (1) hour before each event.

You can also watch live the conversation on sgt.gr, on Thursday 7 March at 19:00.
