The guide by Nikos Politis, “Chronicle of the Patraikos sort 1840-1940” is introduced in the present day at 8 pm at Epikentro+.
The journalist Michalis Bairaktaris writes on the event of the guide’s presentation: “In an period the place the operate of journalism is discredited by synthetic means and with a mentality that’s far faraway from the actual place that the journalist ought to have within the context of society, comes the reissue of a troublesome analysis work of the late journalist and founding father of the ESIEPIN Museum, Nikos Politis the “Chronicle of the Patraiko press 1840-1940”.
The primary version was made in 1984 on the expense of the journalist and the second this 12 months by the publications “Doni” with the initiative, (this can be a accomplished version), of the sons of Vangelis and Jimi Politis.
The essence of the guide lies within the highlighting of the expressions of the press of the time with a militant and sincere angle and with a number of positions, with the end result that the reader positive factors perception into the political positions of the time and likewise penetrates the situations that have been forming in society.
The creator is much from “adoring” the period and concluding “the most effective functioning of the press” then to reach at a comparability with in the present day as he had understood that the evolutionary course of inside society has its personal results which ultimately they tackle a progressive character. Thus, consciously I consider, he prevented any sort of atavism, thus handing the reader a didactic instrument.
Sure, the reader now, because the work is exclusive, can examine the then work with in the present day’s with out being guided by the creator’s “saves and effectively”.
Manipulation was not the instrument of Nikos Politis’s pondering, however the provide of a piece that “raises” dialog, reflection and continuity, one thing that his two sons did in the present day.
As a result of the topic that Nikos Politis handled can’t be exhausted in a single, two and even three editions.
The late journalist has laid the foundations which have proved timeless for the straightforward purpose, or which ought to no less than be thought-regarding self-evident, that the press of the time in a method or one other expressed the views of society however “flew” over these within the sense that he gave one thing extra. Along with the mandatory “salt and pepper” of the report, the remark and the article, he offered information to the frequent man, because of which he “bonded” with him with sturdy ties.
Might we are saying that the creator was a pioneer?
WRONG, the creator continues, not solely to impress, but in addition to offer data that in the present day, and from what I think regarding, and tomorrow, can enter the vice of comparability. Readers have an necessary undertaking of their arms they usually might make use of it as residents fairly than topics.
Subsequently Nikos the Citizen continues his method by the texts with out present in a pure state as a result of the guide helps by all means the timelessness of his thought.
The editor, Andreas Tsiliras, rightly notes that “the “Chronicle” was adopted by a flood of books regarding Patras, the results of the infinite hours of labor, the particular look and the large archive of the creator”.
