Abstract

When one speaks of the meaning, the dream, the vision that concerns the future - utilizing the past, nourishing the present - one speaks of an emergent becoming, of a spiral ascension in which philotas and neikos, as Empedocles would tell us, succeed each other. And so, for us in this tribute, philotas brings us closer to each other and closer to Petros Polychronis.
