Fifty years of poetry are enclosed within the consolidated version “Poems”, the brand new ebook by Vassilis Ladas, which is revealed by “Farfoulas” publications and can be introduced right this moment at 8 pm within the theater of the Philharmonic Society of Patras (Riga Feraiu 7).
A route that begins from 1973 and reaches as much as 2023 and as famous by Vassilis Ladas, talking in pelop.gr “What I appeared for when all of the poems was first to see if there was a unity of favor. I additionally discovered that there are poems that comply with what is going on within the citadel. They’re poems that their poetry makes use of fewer miraculous adjectives and adverbs. I attempted to maintain to few phrases and if I might – though it isn’t doable – I’d use principally nouns and verbs.
One other factor I discovered, is that I averted the phrase “dying” in my poetry, one thing we can not keep away from in life. However I consider that poetry is written regarding life. I at all times take into consideration the verse of Solomon “I didn’t hope that life can be nice and first!”.
Asking Vassilis Ladas to make a thematic evaluate of his poetry, he solutions us: “I noticed how the lady has a dominant place in my poetry. It dominates the person in love {couples}, whereas seems as a triune deity: as a mom, as a lady and for the previous few years I’ve been writing regarding my daughter. It is one thing that got here out by itself, I did not search it” he characteristically notes and continues: “One other factor I noticed attempting to see if there’s unity within the fashion is that though initially the texts had been sweeter, as time glided by they grew to become bitter. That they had extra sarcasm and bitterness.”
Vassilis Lada’s aim with this publication was for all his poems to have a typical “roof”, though as he famous, he discovered that his poems from 1980 to 2000, which had been revealed by his native publishing homes, have been anthologized. In reality, the one factor he faraway from his journey had been solely 5-6 texts which, as he tells us, “had been bitter feedback on present conditions and there was no level in together with them within the assortment”.
And his poems might comprise extra bitterness and sarcasm because the years go by, however he himself “because the years go by he understands issues extra and can’t condemn folks and conditions simply».
“”Because the years go by/ there are extra judges who condemn you” says Seferis, however I consider that we have gotten much less important. A knowledge of understanding is acquired and I feel that is additionally seen within the final poems” he says characteristically and continues “And the place I’m bitter, it’s within the context of understanding the bigger complete”.
Along with poems, Vassilis Ladas has additionally given us many prose texts. What’s the distinction between its two properties? “So far as the problems I’m shifting are the identical: anti-heroes, the perimeter world, the unenlightened by publicity. However the strategy of prose is totally different from that of poetry. Prose may be written in a shorter time than a poem which, though smaller in measurement, takes a very long time to write down. In prose you’re extra free and if sure issues “escape” you’re carried away by the wave of historical past. In poetry, if one phrase goes improper, the entire poem is destroyed.”
Anti-heroes are a favourite topic of Vassilis Ladas. “I watch life intently and heroes curiosity me lower than anti-heroes. Dithyrambs have been written for heroes. Individuals perceive that many instances heroes are creatures created by others they usually themselves didn’t have the brilliance that was given to them of their lives. I like issues that aren’t seen, that don’t come to the floor.”
As for himself, once we ask him to inform us regarding himself, he suffices with the next:I really like my daughter very a lot, I really feel good in Patras and I actually like the steps of Agios Nikolaos. I consider that they will develop into the landmark of the town, as a result of aside from a lovely picture the steps even have a metaphorical that means: you’ll be able to go up them following which go down them many times they usually join the earth to the sky. And so far as Patras is worried, I place all my heroes in it, whereas I point out it typically in my poems.”
