гръцка идентичност

Travelling and friendship are the foundation narrative motives of N. Kazantzakis’ famous novel “Alexis Zorbas”. But they give strong impetus to H. Miller’s pen in his world-famous travelogue “The Colossus of Marоussi”, which became a symbol of philhellenism. The two classical literary works analyze the problems of (Greek, but not only) identity from both individual and socio-cultural point of view. In this article the 237concept of the remake is understood as a (re)making or a (re)creation of the Greek identity mostly in the context of universal moral categories, which unexpectedly gave the books “Alexis Zorbas” and “The Colossus of Maroussi” a long lasting popularity.
