About
The Second Tinos International Literary Festival will take place in the island of Tinos in the end of July 2011. Along with the participants, musicians and dancers from Tinos will provide the discourse of this multinational and multicultural festival, making it more than just a literary event.
With the active support of local authorities and institutions, such as the Cultural Foundation of Tinos, Panhellenic Holy Foundation of Evangelistria of Tinos and local municipalities, combined with the business world of Tinos, this event hopefully will evolve into one of great importance in the literary world of Greece.
Our goal is to make Tinos a reference point and a meeting place of international contemporary literature, an island where the West meets the East, the North the South, the Aegean Sea the Mediterranean. Through speech, language, expression, communication, readings, recitations, performances, dancing and music we meet the ‘other’ and the barricades of fear are broken. The wealth of the different languages and contemporary literary trends of the world will be common ground and the writers will share their experience with the public, so that everyone’s work will be used for the common good.
