Chronicle Conducive To 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.

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

I have always been a big admirer of Nikos Kazantzakis and I must say that although I rarely read books written by Greek authors when it comes to this brilliant man I can never resist. I have read all almost all his books but I place this one at the top of my list, even better than Zorba. I can read it again and again... and never get bored. The wording, the story, the characters...everything is simply perfect.

One of Kazantzakis great book, exploring his concerns about the human condition, inequalities and the use of religion to oppress the weak. He does this through the story of a small Greek village in Turkish territory where, every five year or so, the Passion is enacted. The villagers who will play the key characters are selected soon after Easter the year before, so that they can prepare themselves spiritually to embody holy personages. However, the arrival of refugees from a Greek village that

Moving story, if a bit (a lot) overwrought. I'm thinking maybe it's the translation on this one that isn't so good? I'd love to compare the original version if I ever get around to brushing up on my greek.

I read this book while in college, more than a decade ago, and I don't remember the details of the plot. I do remember though how much I loved it and how much it affected me. I remember sobbing at 4 am at night while reading Manolios's confession, feeling the suffering he was going through. It is definitely one of my favorite books of all times.I won't do the story justice right now, but if I had to summarize it the way I think of it, I would say it's about the struggle of the man, every man to

The author's style seems, to me, inseperable from that of Dostoyevsky. The difference, however, is that while Dostoyevsky's works usually traverse from darkness to a modicum of light and redemption, Kazantzakis' book starts in the light and shows that when light is fully pursued, it often leads to darkness. The theme, as I see it, is one of conversion. A few characters are compelled, almost by forces outside themselves, to take a fresh look at the life of Jesus and to take it seriously. They

Christ is crucified once more and after 2000 years mankind is still embrioled in a seemingly endless cycle of tragedy. In a small greek community in Anatolia, the almost superhuman virtues of greek ancient ancestry and orthodox christian faith is put to the test against basic human weaknesses and inclinations. The high virtues suffer an almost total defeat against the powers of greed, social status, jealousy and hate. What is to be lerned from this book? perhaps that no nation, religious
