In a time characterized by fluidity and deterioration of landscapes on almost all levels, the role of language, which grapples with the imperialistic image, becomes increasingly significant.
The focus on the "weak" Greek language, based on linguistic hegemony, appears imperative, and in such a context, the volume seeks to strengthen its connection with mass media and social networking.
It insists on highlighting contemporary cutting-edge issues, such as the relationship between ancient Greek literature and journalism, the concept of power in classical texts, and the post-memorandum language in the public sphere.
Top linguists, modern Greek scholars, and professors from the universities of Greece, Harvard, and Rio de Janeiro present their views on the teaching and uses of the Greek language in intercultural/multicultural environments, its standardization, and the linguistic representations of the crisis, ultimately concluding in the "apotheosis" of language as a major tool for combating fear and manipulation.
