Λουκής Λάρας by Demetrios Vikelas
"Λουκής Λάρας" by Demetrios Vikelas is a short novel first published in 1879. The work takes a quietly revolutionary approach to depicting Greece's struggle for independence, favoring gentle tones, goodness, and sentimental nobility over heroic anthems and patriotic fervor. Through its anti-heroic protagonist, Loukis Laras, the novel moves away from traditional battle narratives to explore the human dimensions of years-long conflict, opening new paths in Greek literature toward ethnographic realism.
