T.K. Papatsonis: Cold War Catholic?
David Ricks
Abstrak
The tragic period of the Civil War and Cold War in Greece generated much poetry of lasting value, mostly from the Left . The poet T. K. Papatsonis (1895–1976), a fi gure with (among Greek poets) an idiosyncratic political and religious perspective, produced a response of quite a diff erent kind: an 'instant poem' written ira et studio as soon as the show trial of the Hungarian Joseph Cardinal Mindszenty (1949) was concluded. The present discussion provides a reading of Papatsonis' unusual poem within its Cold War context, with attention to its allegiances and its possible contradictions.
