Announcements

 Α new book called “The Athenian Symposium and its Rituals” has been launched and added to Ktima Gerovassiliou editions. Inspired by the Symposium section of the Gerovassiliou Wine Museum, we asked Michalis Tiverios, academic and emeritus professor at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, to write a book on the subject. The idea was born a few years back when we invited him to give a related lecture for our museum.

The book deals with the ancient symposium, one of the greatest social customs of ancient Greek culture. Texts are accompanied by rich educational material, which creates immediacy to readers.
