In search of the new Ithaca | Tilemachos Mavrakis | TEDxFiesole

Hello, Kalispera Bonacera. Um, yeah, obviously she gave it out. I'm totally Greek and I come from a very small town called Fibs or Tebe as you call it in Latin. You know, Fibs was the home of all ancient Greek tragedies and a Tyron was there, Antiggoni was there. So everything really in the ancient Greek tragedy scene happened in my hometown. So then when I was invited to speak here to TED, I thought, okay, is it me or are we living a new type of tragedy now? Is it a Greek one? No, but it's definitely Greek ...
