Odysseas Elytis Maria Nephele-玛莉亚·夏菲女士

作者：Odysseas Elytis

书名：Maria Nephele《玛莉亚·夏菲女士》

简介：Elytis has characterized Maria Nephele as a strange kind of poem that belongs to his third creative period and that is more complex in structure than Axion Esti: "In it a girl speaks. Her words are on the left side of the page and the poet's reactions on the right. Yet it is not a dialogue but two monologues side by side." Maria Nephele, the girl who speaks in the poem, is both a mythical woman and a real person known to the poet : "I met this young woman in real life, and I suddenly wanted to write something very different from the Axion Esti. rTherefore, I made this young woman speak in my poem and express her world view, which is that of the young generation of today."
