Description In Pursuance Of Books Christ Recrucified

Ο Χριστός ξανασταυρώνεται = Christ Recrucified = Le Christ recrucifie, Nikos Kazantzakis The story concerns the attempts of a Greek village community to stage a Passion Play - which, as the title suggests, ends up with their in effect re-enacting the events of Jesus Christ's trial, suffering and death. It takes place in a Greek village, Lycovrisi (Wolf-spring), under Ottoman rule. The village holds Passion Plays every seven years and the elders of the village choose the actors from among the villagers. Manolios, who is chosen to play the role of Christ, is a humble shepherd boy who was once a novice in a monastery. Yannakkos becomes Apostle Peter. He is a merchant-peddler who travels with his donkey through the villages and sells his items. He is warm-hearted, naïve and loves his donkey above all else. Michelis, the son of the wealthy nobleman old Patriarcheas, becomes Apostle John. Kostandis, the owner of the village café, is Apostle James the Great. He is good-hearted, willing to share, but confused. Then comes Panayotaros, who is chosen to be Judas. He is a wild, passionate man, waiting for revenge. The widow Katerina is Mary Magdalene. She is the village's prostitute. She is beautiful, but of course an outsider in the village, not caring about anybody's opinion. But she is the most generous one and in the end gives her life for what she believes in. Then the Elders of Lycovrissi are introduced. There is the Priest Grigoris — a domineering man who bends God's will to his own. Archon Patriarcheas is the leader of the village. He only lives for his own pleasure. Old Ladas is a miser who is obsessed with his money but lives in poverty so that he doesn't have to spend any of it. Hadji Nikolis is the schoolmaster, who means well but is ineffectual, haunted by fear of his brother the priest. The whole story is made colorful by the Turkish household consisting of The Agha, the Lord of Lycovrissi. He lives surrounded by his Oriental splendor, drinks himself crazy and enjoys rakı and pretty boys. Hussein is the guard, a giant Oriental who does everything his master asks of him. تاریخ نخستین خوانش: در ماه نوامبر سال 2005 میلادی عنوان: مسیح باز مصلوب؛ نویسنده: نیکوس کازانتزاکیس؛ مترجم: محمد قاضی؛ تهران، خوارزمی، 1349؛ در 645 ص؛ چاپ هشتم 1385؛ شابک: 9644870298؛ در 634 ص؛ موضوع: داستانهای نویسندگان یونانی - سده 20 م عنوان: مسیح باز مصلوب؛ نویسنده: نیکوس کازانتزاکیس؛ مترجم: محمود سلطانیه؛ تهران، جامی، 1378؛ در 578 ص؛ شابک: 9645620694؛ چاپ سوم 1380؛ هرچه از این نویسنده خوانده ام، مدهوشم کرده، زوربای یونانی را بارها نوشیده ام، و اکنون در این نامه، مسیح بار دیگر باز هم مصلوب شده است. محل رخداد داستان، یکی از روستاهای یونان است، که توسط «آقا»، حکمران منصوب از طرف دولت عثمانی، اداره می‌شود. «مانولیوس» نام شخصیت اصلی این رمان است، که الگوی خود را مسیح قرار داده‌، و داستان کلی رمان، روای ِ داستان زندگی وی، و تلاش‌ها و کوشش‌هایی ست، که او برای یاری به مردمان می‌کند. «آقا»، اختیاردار جان و مال و ناموس اهالی آبادی ست؛ ضمن این‌که در روابط خصوصی آن‌ها دخالتی ندارد. اختلاف بین «آقا» و ساکنان، زمانی آغاز می‌شود، که «یوسفک»، پسربچه ی امردی، که «آقا» از ترکیه آورده‌، و مونس ساعات خوش اوست، به قتل می‌رسد. «کازانتزاکیس» در این رمان، با موشکافی، تضاد بین حاکم ترک، و رعایای یونانی را، با طنزی دلنشین به تصویر کشیده، و از سویی دیگر، اتحاد این دو را، برای حفظ منافع مشترک، و سرکوب جنبش نوخاسته‌ ای، که به مذاق متعصبین کلیسا نیز ناخوش‌آیند است، نشان می‌دهد. این کتاب تصویری گویا از عناصر موجود در جامعه، و نماینده ی بینش‌های گوناگونی است، که با عنوانهای: ناسیونالیسم، سوسیالیسم، خرده بورژوازی، سرمایه‌ داری، فئودالیسم و انقلاب، در جایگاه مخصوص به خود، اعلام موجودیت می‌کنند. ا. شربیانی

Assessment Of Books Christ Recrucified

Read this years ago under variant title The Greek Passion. Don't remember many details but I do remember tears streaming down my face at Manolios, the protagonist, in one place. The novel was very moving.Thinking about it a little more, although this concerned Greek villagers under Ottoman domination putting on a Passion play and how the participants' lives were changed, this reminded me of Tolstoy's later tales in some way. Thoughtful.

This is a remarkably clever, emotional and challenging novel. It is in essence a simple story: a Greek village re-enacts the life of Christ every four years, individuals are given parts to play - how much are they inherently like or do they taken on themselves the biblical/personalities roles? The long novel of 470pages deepens the idea on so many levels you'll love it. Ok a little more detail. The location is a smallish town called Lycovrissi on mainland Turkey (Anatolia) occupied by Greeks in

A Greek village will put on a passion play, and they select townspeople for the various parts. Amazingly, real situations in the village put each of them in a analogous real-life role so that they are living the parts they had been chosen to play. Great idea, but I don't believe that it supports a book of this length. The characters are well-imagined.

This marks the end of my journey with Kazantzakis's main works, at least for now. The central themes of Kaznatzakis's thought are very present here, namely the conflict between flesh and spirit and the idea that the path of men is the one that rises. Manolios's transformation from a lowly shepherd to a mirror for Christ is very captivating. The inner turmoil that he faces as he struggles to attain the Christian ideal is universal to all those who suffer. The characters of Michelis and Pope Fotis

This book is titled "Christ Recrucified" in some editions. I prefer the title on my book "The Greek Passion". I probably would not have even considered reading the book under the former title - doesn't sound like a novel - sounds too much like theology.This prolific Greek writer (no longer living) has more than one book on the "passion of Christ". This one is very good.Manolos, the shepherd, chosen to play Christ, is a sympathetic character. It is very difficult to portray the life of Christ in

I have to say I wasnt particularly taken with the style of writing. To do with the translation, maybe? The story itself though was a fascinating and complex one that set me thinking almost from the start, even though I realize it can be read on different levels and may, to some, be just an interesting story.See also message 46 of the Netherlands & Flanders group: Uitdagingen > LENTE 2016 for a slighty more elaborate review in Dutch.

Nikos Kazantzakis (1883-1957) was surely the greatest Greek author of the 20th century. His writing is passionate, colorful, down to earth. He almost won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1947, losing to Camus by one vote. He's most famous in this country for Zorba the Greek (made into a popular movie with Anthony Quinn), & also The Last Temptation of Christ (made into a controversial movie directed by Scorsese**). I read his books when I was in high school, & this one, The Greek
