One of his most famous poems is “Preveza”

Preveza.

Death is the bullies bashing
against the black walls and roof tiling,
death is the women being loved
in the course of onion peeling.

Death the squalid, unimportant streets
with their glamorous and pompous names,
the olive-grove, the surrounding sea, and even
the sun, death among all other deaths.

Death the policeman bending over
to weigh, a "lacking" portion,
death the harebells on the balcony
and the teacher with the newspaper.

Base, Guard, Sixty-man Prevezian Rule.
On Sunday we'll listen to the band.
I've taken out a savings booklet,
my first deposit drachmas thirty one.

Walking slowly on the quay,
"do I exist?" you say, and then: "you do not!"
The ship approaches. The flag is flying.
Perhaps Mr. Prefect will be coming.

If at least, among these people,
one would die of sheer disgust
silent, bereaved, with humble manners,
at the funeral we'd all have fun.

Vrey good drinks and very polite people.

At the end of the day the memories is so special.

The acropolis is the biggest attraction in Greece.

The acropolis is dedicated to the view of Athens. Also, the acropolis was an important place for the Horus century of Pericles.

Kythnos is one of the lesser-known islands in the Cyclades. The southern part is practically uninhabited, and in the north you will find Merichas (where the island harbour is located), Chora or Mesaria (the island capital), Loutra and Dryopida.

Kythnos wears the standard blue and white colours of the Cyclades, its countryside is dotted with bald hills, dry-stone walls that stretch for kilometres ahead and more than 350 snow white little chapels scattered around the island. It has more than 65 beaches (the majority ending in off-road access tracks) and picturesque villages with the narrow cobbled streets, the white-washed houses, squares, churches and windmills.

He returned to his native island in later life, where he would spend the rest of his life and eventually pass away there in 1911. He supported himself by writing throughout his adult life, anything from journalism and short stories to several serialized novels. From a certain point onwards he had become very popular, and newspapers and magazines vied for his writings, offering him substantial fees. Papadiamantis did not care for money, and would often ask for lower fees if he thought they were unfairly high; furthermore, he distributed his earnings to those who needed it more and took no care of his clothing and appearance. He never married, and was known to be a recluse, whose only true cares were observing and writing about the life of the poor and of spiritual figures, as well as chanting at church: he was referred to as "kosmokalogeros".He died of pneumonia.

Altamouras's father was the Italian painter Francesco Saverio Altamura, and his mother was the aristocrat and first Greek female painter from Spetses, Eleni Boukoura-Altamoura. She was an Arvanite, descendant of Albanians who had immigrated to the Peloponnese in the Middle Ages and were gradually assimilated into the Greek culture. When Altamouras was seven years old, his father abandoned the family. His mother then took him along with his sister Sophia and moved to Athens. From an early age, Ioannis exhibited his artistic skills in painting. He was accepted to the Athens School of Fine Arts, where he studied painting along with Nikiphoros Lytras during the years 1871–1872. With a scholarship of King George II, he was able to continue his studies in Copenhagen from 1873 to 1876 near Carl Frederik Sørensen. In 1875 and while he was still in Copenhagen, he was sent to the artistic competition of Olympion in Athens with his painting The port of Copenhagen which won the second award. He returned to Athens where he opened his own painting atelier while his fame and reputation was rapidly expanding. He died from tuberculosis at the age of 26. His death led his mother to a nervous breakdown and subsequent madness.

He took part in the 40's war and the Resistance. He collaborated with the magazine "Elefthera Grammata", of which he was editor-in-chief, director and publisher. After the coup of the colonels, the poet exiled himself to Switzerland, from where he traveled throughout Europe participating in radio broadcasts and poetry festivals, while he was also honored by various European universities. He returned to Greece during the Postcolonial period.

Across from Chios, in the village of Lythri in Asia Minor, high up on the acropolis of ancient Erythra, a church of Agia Matrona was built in the 17th century. After 1922, refugees from Lythri rescued and brought with them the icon of Agia Matrona. Together with other refugees from the Eritrean peninsula they settled in Attica and created New Eritrea. Here, they rebuilt the church of Agia Matrona and housed her icon.
