Τ2022 marked 100 years from the peak of the drama of Hellenism, with the destruction of Smyrna and the definitive violent uprooting of the Asia Minor Greeks from their ancestral homes. But the emigration from the forgotten lost homelands, together with the passage of those who are kept alive in mainland Greece, their tragic memories and the suffering of the refugee, brings with it all the distinct Greek culture that had developed from the shores of Asia Minor to the depths of East. Literary and artistic creations, musical pursuits and culinary aromas find fertile ground to flourish initially in the Aegean islands and then in the large urban centers of the Greek area, such as Athens, Piraeus, Volos and Thessaloniki.
In the passage of time, all these elements are unified in the crucible of culture, fertilize and fertilize opinions and ideas, create trends and currents, consolidate and continue to this day to contribute to the cultural creation of our country, not as historical origins but as living cells of culture .
Through the pages of this book, with past and present texts, the unbreakable chain that unites the past with the present and looks optimistically towards the future is recorded.
