(b. 1896)) LC database, 29 December 2016 (access point: Stephanides, Theodore, 1896- [from old catalog]) Wikipedia, 29 December 2016 (Theodore Stephanides (21 January 1896-13 April 1983) was a Greek poet, author, doctor and naturalist. He is best remembered as the friend and mentor of the famous naturalist Gerald Durrell, featuring in Durrell's My Family and Other Animals, Birds, Beasts and Relatives, The Garden of the Gods and Fillets of Plaice, Durrell's brother Lawrence's Prospero's Cell, and Henry Miller's The Colossus of Maroussi. A polymath, Stephanides was respected as a scientist and doctor, and acclaimed as a poet in both Greek and English, and translated a sizeable body of Greek poetry to English -- notably a significant body of work by Greek poet Kostis Palamas and the Greek near-epic work, Erotocritos.) <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theodore_Stephanides> National Library of the Netherlands (access point: Stefanidēs, Theodōros F., 1896-1983) |
