WELCOME TO  AKWN   THE SITE OF WORLD NEWS IN ANCIENT GREEK

 

In "LATEST NEWS" button: New treaty in the European Union / Demonstrations in Russia /// Christian Bale, mistreated in China / "Carlos the Jackal", sentenced again /// Boko Haram kills 140 people / France cancels military activity in Afghanistan / The captain left the ship /// Soldiers who killed Bin Laden now free hostages in Somalia / New letters of Dickens, published / Does Chavez's daughter love dollars? /// A lider of the Khmer Rouges gets life sentence / Russia and China oppose to condemnation against Syria / Will Israel attack Iran?

Metheksis Editions (www.metheksis.gr), from Thessaloniki, has been very kind to publish a little book of mine where you can find a case of Sherlock Holmes and a story of Don Camillo (by Giovanni Guareschi) both translated into Ancient Greek. Each translation has a bilingual introduction, both in English and in Modern Greek.

(These two translations could be found up to now in a kind of home-made edition and only in a couple of places in the UK, but now, after making a whole revision of the text, adding the introductions in Modern Greek, etc., it has been officially published, and in Greece.)
