Tasos Leivaditis (Greek: Τάσος Λειβαδίτης; 1922 – 1988) was a Greek poet, short story writer and literary critic  who belonged to the postwar generation that was deeply marked by the struggles and failures of the communist movement. His early and politically committed poetry traveled through the ‘fire and sword’ of history, transforming in the end into powerful and paradoxical prose-poems, and displaying an erotically charged form of ‘neo-romanticism’ mixed with ‘melancholic minimalism’ where “genuine humility offers obedience to the magic of language.” (Wikipedia)
