Ειρηνικά

A lyric collection of poems that appeals for peace and renewal after violence, blending religious and classical allusion with pastoral and domestic scenes. The poet invokes personified figures such as Peace, Love, Victory and Dawn while depicting village gatherings, workshop labor, sea voyages and family reunions. Recurring themes include rebirth, productive work, communal rejoicing and the consolations of affection and art. Sensory detail—light, scent and sound—shapes seasonal change and emotional longing, and the overall tone celebrates how reconciliation and prosperity restore industry, nurture bonds and inspire creative yearning.
