The colloquium Rethink the Past is being held in Rome on December 1, organised by the Onassis Foundation in collaboration with the Chair of Modern Greek Language and Literature at the University of Rome La Sapienza and the Embassy of Greece in Rome.
The event is part of the project The Athens Dialogues, an interdisciplinary programme aiming to explore the relationship between Greek culture and the modern world; it now focuses on problems that concern modern man and the world that will have been formed within the next few decades.
Rome, the emblematic European city, so intrinsically linked with Greek culture for the formation of Greco-Roman civilization, was chosen as the place for the new cycle of Athens Dialogues, as well as the verses of poet Yiorgos Gotis was chosen as the motto to the colloquium.
