The correspondence between the famous artist, iconographer, literary figure, and modern Greek cultural titan Photios Kontoglou, who died in 1965, and Constantine Cavarnos, the Greek-American philosopher, writer, translator, Byzantinist, and spiritual writer and guide, a virtual titan of Eastern Orthodox intellectuals in the West, who died in 2011, is very little known. Only occasional excerpts from their correspondence have appeared in print. The present collection of letters represents the vast bulk of that correspondence. While all of the letters in the collection were written by Kontoglou to Cavarnos, in almost every instance they make clear reference to the subjects and topics covered in the exchanges between the two, with frequent direct restatements of comments and ideas contained in the latter’s letters. On that account, we feel justified in characterizing the missives presented in this volume, which span a period of nearly a decade and a half, as correspondence between the two. —From the Introduction. 245 pp.

Professor Sergio González, who teaches Latin and the history of the Spanish language at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile and Ancient Greek at the University of Chile in Santiago, was a friend of Constantine Cavarnos, who reposed three years ago at the Holy Monastery of St. Anthony in Arizona, and an admirer of his writings. This text, which he originally wrote in Spanish, was first published in 2012 in the periodical Byzantion-Nea Hellás. The author himself recently prepared the English version of the text, which Father Asterios Gerostergios translated into Greek.

The trilingual edition of Professor González’ beautiful tribute to Dr. Cavarnos is offered in honor and memory of a great and unforgettable struggler and teacher of Hellenism and Orthodoxy, which he served faithfully and conscientiously until his holy repose. 2014. 68 pp.

Three essays dealing with Greek thought from 1750 to the present. The first is an introduction to modern Greek philosophy through a discussion of its distinctive characteristics. The other essays discuss the standpoint of many eminent Greek intellectuals, philosophers, theologians, scientists, poets, novelists, and others regarding the capabilities and value of the positive sciences and the questions of the nature and destiny of man. “A bold attempt—a unique and pioneering one—to give the reader a perceptive, meaningful, and reliable overview of the modern Greek mind. The result is eminently successful and extremely useful.” 1969. 2nd printing, 1986. 115 pp.

Selections from the writings of seven representative thinkers of modern Greece: Benjamin of Lesvos, P. Vrailas-Armenis, I. Skaltsounis, St. Nectarios of Aegina, N. Louvaris, Ph. Kontoglou, and I.N. Theodorakopoulos—on the human soul: its existence, freedom, powers and immortality. “The deep thought of these philosophers is expressed in such simple and beautiful language that any layman can very well benefit, as well as a scholar who is interested in contemporary Greek thought. An interesting and helpful feature of the book is that Dr. Cavarnos interjects in the footnotes statements of philosophers of the West—European and American—whose doctrines agree with those of these thinkers of modern Greece. Indeed, this book is to be received with interest and pleasure by all.” 1967. 2nd, revised and considerably enlarged edition, 1987. 140 pp., 6 illus.

A discussion of a very enlightening lecture by the distinguished Argentine philosopher, philologist, and Hellenist Dr. Saúl A. Tovar. The object of Dr. Tovar's lecture was to prove that since the Academy of Plato and the Lyceum of Aristotle there has been no interruption up until today in the continuity of Greek Paideia. 1995. 75 pp., 10 illus.

Two lectures are presented in this volume. They deal with the same general subject, the Hellenic Heritage, viewed from the same standpoint. Their aim is to give, as far as possible in brief compass, a series of significant glimpses of the long, rich, and uninterrupted Greek cultural tradition from Antiquity to the present. They focus on the fine arts, language, literature, science, philosophy, and religion. This book may be viewed as a sequel to a shorter work of more limited scope by Dr. Cavarnos, entitled Cultural and Educational Continuity of Greece. 2000. 128 pp., 2 illus.

An eloquent, scholarly, and thought-provoking lecture. Whitman was Professor of Classical Greek Literature at Harvard (1950-1979). “This book gives us a clear glimpse of classical Greece, its language and culture, and its modern legacy. It can be read with tremendous intellectual and spiritual benefit.” 1995. 56 pp., 1 plate.

A new instrument for scholars in the fields of philosophy, the classics, modern Greek Studies, the Sciences, Theology, and the Humanities in general.

In Greek and English. Three Speeches on the Greek Nation, its miraculous survival, and its unique contributions to mankind. The author presents the causes of the greatness of the miracle of the Greek Nation with incomparable eloquence and strong arguments, as well as the reasons for its downfall during the various phases of its history. Translation and Foreward by Asterios Gerostergios. 1998. 95pp., illus.

A discussion of the subject of developing a satisfactory, acceptable, standardized English-language terminology in Orthodox theology, hagiology, Church services, and the sacred arts, together with Greek-English and English-Greek glossaries. “This work will be of growing interest to clergymen, catechists, lecturers, and writers who discuss the Orthodox Faith. Its glossaries in particular may well make it a widely-used handy reference work.” 1994. 80 pp.
