Emmanuel Rhoides Books

Emmanuel Rhoides was a distinguished Greek writer and journalist, recognized as one of the most influential and revitalizing figures in the letters of his era. He adopted a decidedly critical stance against the literary romanticism of his time, often employing poignant sarcasm to critique his contemporaries. His notoriety stems significantly from a controversial novel that delved into the legend of Pope Joan, a work that ultimately led to his ex-communication from the Greek Orthodox Church. Furthermore, Rhoides pioneered the translation of Edgar Allan Poe's works into Greek, significantly enriching the literary landscape.
