Event in Pattieio Municipal Theater \u2013 Limassol, Cyprus \u201cThe History of Cyprus travels the world\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

(21st of October 2019)<\/strong><\/p>\n

On the 21st of October 2019, Melathron Ecumenical Hellenism held a second event in Cyprus, this time in Limassol, in the Pattihio Municipal Theater. The goal of the event \u201cThe History of Cyprus travels the world\u201d, was to inform the audience about the ambition of Melathron Ecumenical Hellenism to translate the two-volume work \u201cHistory of Cyprus\u201d to English and to send 3.000 copies to the libraries of foreign centers of power (U.S.A., Canada, Australia, Great Britain, European Union) for free.<\/p>\n

The response to this event was great and touching, just as it was to the one that had preceded in Limassol, in the 24th of June 2019. The guests expressed their admiration towards the work of Melathron and its titanic effort to make the history of Cyprus travel to libraries abroad. Their admiration was multiplied by watching the documentary of Ecumenical Hellenism which presented the travelogue of the foundation to the whole world and its visit to the Hellenism of all the lengths and widths of the earth.<\/p>\n

The president of Melathron Ecumenical Hellenism, Stavros Panousopoulos, referred in total, to his 30-year-old restless effort, so that the Greek ideals, the Greek language and history and the Greek culture get rescued and projected abroad. He expressed his admiration to the Greek-Cypriot Nation for its creativity, hard work, its love for the homeland and its history and also its endurance to all the drama it has experienced with the last one being the invasion of \u201974. He officially announced the ambition and focus of Melathron Ecumenical Hellenism, that the two-volume work, \u201cHistory of Cyprus\u201d, \u201ctravel\u201d abroad and become property of Greek expatriates and foreigners. Clearly touched by his last visit to the ghost city in the Famagusta boarders, he professed that in the future, the next chapter that will be connected to Cyprus, will be about Famagusta, the open wound that is still bleeding.<\/p>\n

The Presidency Commissioner, Fotios Fotiou, attended the event and in his speech, after he expressed his admiration and congratulated Melathron Ecumenical Hellenism for its work, he promised a brave help so that its ambition gets fulfilled. He touched the audience by mentioning that all Greeks, inside and outside boarders, owe to know the history, whatever happened and defined the future of the place. He also stressed the need of the creation of a communication bridge with the Expatriates and the multiple benefits this will bring.<\/p>\n
