Papadiamandis Conference
For those of you who are already fans of Greece’s Dostoevsky, you’ll be interested to learn that the Third National Alexandros Papadiamandis Conference began yesterday on the island of Skiathos. This is a particularly important year for the conference, since it’s the centenary of the writer’s repose.
Herman,
Do you have a recommendation on an edition of Papadiamandis’s Complete Works & where to get them?
-Lucas
Hi Lucas! Are you interested in a Greek or an English edition? Domos Publications in Athens produces the definitive Complete Works in Greek (contact info here: http://www.ekebi.gr/frontoffice/portal.asp?cpage=NODE&cnode=303&t=233), and in English Denise Harvey Publications has done a wonderful job of publishing Papadiamandis’s works in translation: http://deniseharveypublisher.gr/people/alexandros-papadiamandis. This is the first volume of his complete works in English: http://deniseharveypublisher.gr/books/the-boundless-garden and Ms Harvey just published a new translation of Papadiamandis’s novel, The Murderess: http://deniseharveypublisher.gr/books/the-murderess
Herman,
Thanks for your reply; while I’m definitely interested in his works in English translation (have been thoroughly enjoying the Denise Harvey volumes), I was wondering about them in Greek. Do I understand correctly that the Triandaphyllopoulos critical edition is the set to get? Thanks!

Yes, the Apanta sold by Domos Publications is, as far as I know, the set to get!
