Call for Submissions!



e-Epanastasi is seeking submissions for Plethon, a demo issue of a printed Pan-Hellenic journal we hope to regularly produce in the near future. The journal is named in honor of Georgios “Plethon” Gemistos, a 15th century Greek scholar of Neoplatonic philosophy. It is thanks to Plethon that Plato’s teachings were re-introduced to Western Europe. Submissions open January 19 and close March 1st, 2016.

Always failing to understand that the crisis in Greece is more than simply an economic depression, but part of a much larger social crisis within Greek society.

What if, this false perception was the byproduct of a school of thought, which was witnessing its own demise as a result of this wave of social unrest? What if, the paradigm shift unfolding before the international stage was both a winter and a spring?
