For I Do Not Know How to Act
This paper presents a discussion, in honour of the late Ari Hirvonen, of the reality of theatre, the space of the tragic and the ethical condition. It engages critically with Hirvonen’s work, as he would demand it, and in doing so it considers the distinctive thinking about theatrical reality in the work of the great Polish artist and theatre director Tadeusz Kantor
The Experience of Peril in Secular Criticism
This essay offers a reading of Stathis Gourgouris's The Perils of the One (2019). The peril of the One is primarily, Zartaloudis suggests, its poverty of experience. The impoverishment of experience is the purpose of transcendental foundations of the One, which, in Western traditions, is presupposed through a binary schema of power whereby potency is exhausted in actuality. This binary of power corresponds historically to the Christian Trinitaria…

The Birth of Nomos
The Birth of Nomos delves into the history of the fundamental ancient Greek word nomos (and its family and other related words) to extensively examine the varied co-existent uses of the terms from the archaic to the early classical period, before and beyond its later meaning of 'law' or 'law-making'. The Birth of Nomos draws on the literary evidence in the works of the poets, philosophers and tragedians including Homer, Hesiod, Alcman, Pindar, Ar…
Birth of Nomos
The Nomos of the Post-Homeric Poets
This chapter examines the uses of the nomos family of words in the ‘post-homeric’ poets and in particular in Hesiod, Alcman, Alcaeus, Archilochus and Theognis.
Nomos Mousikos
This chapter examines the uses of the nomos family of words in the fundamental, for the Greeks, practice of mousikē. It examines the wider context of mousikē practices and the elements that comprise it, as well as the role of the Muses, harmonia, the mousikos nomos and the early law-givers.
The Nomos of Feasts and ‘Sacrifices’
This chapter examines the Homeric uses of the verbs at the root of the word nomos that indicate, in varied ways, the act of distribution-sharing in the varied contexts of feasts and so-called sacrifices and related rituals.
Nomos Basileus
This chapter examines the uses of nomos family of words in the poetry of Pindar, including an extensive analysis of fr.169a. In doing so it also considers Plato’s, Carl Schmitt’s, Giorgio Agamben’s, Jean-Luc Nancy’s and Friedrich Hölderlin’s references to the Pindaric fragment.
The Nomos of the Land
This chapter examines the Homeric uses of ‘holding’, ‘inhabiting’ and ‘apportioning’ land centred on the verb nemō and its family of words. Reference is also made to the earlier Mycenaean land-holding arrangements and Linear-B evidence and related social conditions. It also examines the link to the Greek settlements. The chapter ends with a reconsideration of Carl Schmitt’s reading of the Odyssey , 1.1-3.
Nomos Moirēgenēs
This chapter examines the speculation that moira is a precursor to the semantic field of ‘fate’ and possibly so in some relation to nemein (including in the sense of an allotment of portions); as well as the relation between moira and nemein, more generally. The focus in this chapter remains within the Homeric uses, though not exclusively, and with regard also to death, birth and the practice of weaving.
Nemesis
This chapter examines the relation between nomos and nemesis, a sentiment that arguably entails an early sense of indignation, in the Homeric uses, with some reference to later understandings and the link to aidōs. It also examines the respective uses in Hediod.
The Nomos of Heraclitus
This chapter examines the uses of the nomos family of words in the surviving fragments of Heraclitus. It includes an examination of the uses of nemō, nomizein, nomos in especially Fr.114. There is, further, reference to the interpretations of Martin Heidegger and Kostas Axelos.
Hieros anthropos – an inquiry into the practices of archaic Greek supplication
This article examines the earliest literary evidence of ancient supplication practices in the archaic Greek Homeric epic tradition. It does so from a philological, linguistic, ritualist and theoretical perspective without however separating these elements as distinct and it aims to articulate a non-legalistic approach to the earliest evidence, as well as a hypothesis with regard to the sacredness of suppliants in archaic Greece before supplicatio…
The Birth of Nomos
Delves into the history of the ancient Greek word nomos (and related words) to reveal the interdisciplinary depth of this term beyond its later meaning of 'law' or 'law-making' Assembles a genealogical history of the ancient Greek work nomos, showing how it contains a richness that is not reflected in its classical and modern usage as simply 'law' or 'law-making' Draws on works by ancient Greek philosophers, poets and tragedians including Homer, …

The Securitization of Humanitarian Migration
At the outset it needs to be stated that I am not an international relations theorist and thus my review here is constructively engaged with Watson's book from a wider perspective. The book's analysis emerges from within international relations theory (and securitization theory in particular) and claims to be a groundbreaking attempt at enlarging the conventional approaches to what is termed ‘humanitarian migration’ (or forced migration). Yet it …
On Justice
Giorgio Agamben
Giorgio Agamben: Power, Law and the Uses of Criticism is a thorough engagement with the thought of the influential Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben. It explores Agamben’s work on language, ontology, power, law and criticism from the 1970s to his most recent publications. Introducing Agamben's work to a readership in legal theory, as well as in the humanities and social sciences more generally, Thanos Zartaloudis argues that an adequate underst…
