Kostes Palamas (1859–1943) was a seminal figure in modern Greek literature and a key proponent of the New Athenian school of poetry. Palamas's contributions to the literary world are extensive, with 'Life Immovable. First Part' being among his most renowned works. Palamas was born in Patras, Greece, and educated at the Varvakion High School, the highest educational establishment in Greece of that time. His work often reflects on the dilemmas of modern life and the resurgence of Hellenic culture, epitomized by the revival of the Olympic Games, for which he penned the Olympic Hymn that is still used today. Palamas' 'Life Immovable' stands as a monumental literary piece, introducing a synthesis of romanticism and classicism, grafted onto the rich soil of modern Hellenic tradition. It was through his vivid imagery, skillful use of demotic language, and innovative rhythmic structure that Palamas was able to convey a profound sense of national identity and humanistic values. This book, among others, exhibits his skill in blending the symbolic with the historical, the personal with the universal, thus contributing to the cultural renaissance during the late 19th and early 20th centuries in Greece. His work is marked not only by its thematic richness and linguistic dexterity but also by its philosophical reflections on time, existence, and the quintessence of the Greek spirit. For his literary prowess, Palamas has been nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature multiple times. To date, his body of work remains a cornerstone in the study of modern Greek poetry and is indispensable for anyone seeking to understand the literary currents of that era.
