A lecture by our award-winning poet Mr. Kyriakos Charalambides was attended with great interest on Wednesday, February 1, 2023, by students, teachers from secondary schools of Nicosia. The lecture was entitled "Watching the poet at the moment of creation" and was held within the framework of the operation of the "Centre for Classical Studies and Greek Letters" of the Severio Library of the Pancyprian High School.
Mr. Charalambides captivated his audience by presenting, through excerpts from his work, his way of working. He explained how he takes his raw material and transforms it into art. He spoke about the relationship between poet and poetry and the long and systematic work that is required in order for one to make use of the poetic talent that one may possess and cultivate it. He paralleled poetry with mathematical thinking and science, and also with painting. He analyzed the value of words and the need for the poet to penetrate to their core, to search, to expand their conceptual content. Finally, Mr. Charalambides answered the children's questions. The goal of developing skills and encouraging students with an interest in literature and Greek literature is substantially enhanced by contact and cooperation with personalities, creators and people of letters.
