Hellenic Parliament Foundation | International Conference—The Evolution of Modern Constitutional Democracy: Threats and Challenges | October 21–23, 2026
The Hellenic Parliament Foundation for Parliamentarism and Democracy is organizing an international conference titled “The Evolution of Modern Constitutional Democracy: Threats and Challenges.”

Recent developments appear to be reshaping domestic and global political and economic agendas.

Can democracy evolve further without, in essence, losing its core essence …More

2026 Nobel Prize in Literature | Awarded to the Canadian classicist and poet Anne Carson | By Panos Liakos
By Panos Liakos
The Swedish Academy awarded the 2026 Nobel Prize in Literature to Anne Carson, one of the most influential female voices in contemporary poetry and essay writing.
At this globally critical crossroads for the future of the humanities, this particular award brings to the forefront a body of work—that of Carson—in which her background in Classics coexists with a need to preserve and creatively rework fragments of the works of Sappho, Stesichorus, and Euripides.
Indeed, among other comments, the Swedish Academy described Ann Carson’s work as “bold” and “inventive,” while noting that her “playful dialogue” with the …More
