Paul Kiritsis
Paul Chris Kiritsis was born in the jewel called Melbourne, Terra Australis. At the age of 26, he can say that only now does he feel that he has started to come into his own. With a background in the behavioural sciences and arts, the cosmos within the human mind and the ways by which it defines itself are what interest him the most. Within academic study, his favourite areas are mythology, theosophy, history, philosophy and English literature. He has completed degrees in the behavioural sciences and professional writing. He hopes to continue onto a Phd in English in the not too distant future. Many of his poems have appeared in periodic anthologies. Origin: Poems from the crack of dawn is his first collection of poetry. Hermetica: Myths, Legends, Poems marks his first literary collection. The upcoming Shades of Aphrodite due out in late 2008 is a memoir/autobiography. |
Hermetica: Myths, Legends, Poems
The poetry component showcases new work heavily influenced by Platonic and Pythagorean philosophy, otherwise known as Neoplatonic thought. The prose section contains seven stories, five of which explore and extend Egyptian mythology. The other two carry an alchemical flavour and delve into esoteric thought.
