(From handling of the chessmen you infer the secret spring...)
From handling of the chessmen you infer the secret springs of human character. To pluck the enemy chessman between your fingers and replace it with your own reveals the cultivated, well-bred killer who cannot stand the sight of blood; knock the chessman over with a small click of wood on wood tells of an aesthetic craving for the fatal instrument, of one more passionate than violent; to push the piece from its intended square is signal of aggressive character and plainly indicates that power is the motive for committing murder; some will hold the captured piece and caress it nervously: these kill from cowardice; those who seem apologetic, taking pawns reluctantly, kill for noble reasons; and he who clears the board with one great sweep of his hand will kill from lack of hope, defeated by the prospect of defeat, as did my father only death could mate.

( Andreas Karavis has been called Greece's modern Homer. ...)
Andreas Karavis has been called Greece's modern Homer. This is the first time that his work has appeared in English, except for a poem in the Atlantic Monthly (October 1999) and a selection of poems which appeared with a feature article and interview in Books in Canada (October 1999). Andreas Karavis was born in 1932. His first book, White Poems appeared in 1965. His second volume, The Dream Masters was published in 1989, and rapidly established Karavis as one of the most "magisterial and patristic" poetry voices in the history of modern Greek literature. The title poem, generally considered to be Karavis' signature work, is included in almost every recent anthology and is a staple in university courses.
