Introduction to Modern Greek Literature

Steven Hawley was a 3rd year Classics student of mine who enjoyed immensely my Modern Greek literature course and produced a beautiful essay on Vizyenos which he wrote sensitively and insightfully using minimal bibliography. I gave it a clear first before the news of his tragic death last Spring reached me. Losing a young bright student was deeply upsetting for me but rereading his essay was consoling; in Steven’s own words: “The Only Journey of His Life is a story very much concerned with death, but it is also a story concerned with life and new beginnings. Every time something ‘dies’ in the story – be it a way of life, a point of view, or a person – something else begins.” Steven clearly had found some comfort in writing this essay. It has been a pleasure teaching him and I am proud of his work.
