Eleutheria
The Greek word "ἐλευθερία" (capitalized Ἐλευθερία; Attic Greek pronunciation: ), transliterated as eleutheria, is an Ancient Greek term for, and personification of, liberty. Eleutheria personified had a brief career on coins of Alexandria. In Ancient Greece, Eleutheria was also an epithet for the goddess Artemis, and as such she was worshipped in Myra of Lycia. The Roman equivalent of the goddess Eleutheria is Libertas, a goddess in her own right, and a personification of liberty. Etymology For R. F. Willets, Cretan dialect 'Eleuthia' would connect Eileithyia (or perhaps the goddess "Eleutheria") to Eleusis. The name is probably related with a city in Crete named Eleutherna. Walter Burkert believes that Eileithyia is the Greek goddess of birth and that her name is pure-Greek. However the relation with the Greek prefix ' is uncertain, because the prefix appears in some Pre-Greek toponyms like ' (Eleutherna). Hyginus describes Eleutheria as a daughter of Z ...

Eleutheria (play)
''Eleutheria'' (sometimes rendered ''Eleuthéria'': see image) is a play by Samuel Beckett, written in French in 1947. It was his first completed dramatic endeavor ( after an aborted effort about Samuel Johnson). Roger Blin considered staging it in the early 1950s, but opted for '' Waiting for Godot'', because its smaller cast size made it easier to stage. At this point, Beckett suppressed the manuscript. Beckett later recycled the name "Krap" (with two Ps) for his play ''Krapp's Last Tape''. Publishing history In 1985, Beckett's longtime American publisher, Barney Rosset, was fired after a buyout of Grove Press. Beckett offered to help Rosset, and proposed translating ''Eleutheria'' into English for him to publish, and gave him a copy of the manuscript. But according to the American edition of the play, Beckett was clearly reluctant to sanction publication of the work, and Rosset held off publication. After Beckett's death in 1989, Rosset set out to publish ''Eleutheria'' in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
