The Short Story in Cyprus from the End of the 19th Century until 1920

Περίληψη

During the first years of the British occupation, parallel to the publishing of the first local newspapers, some young writers start to cultivate the ethographic (naturalistic?) novel as it was shaped in Greece during the 1880s. Gradually, we witness the emergence of more sophisticated novels dealing with more realistic themes drawn from the various aspects of Cypriot life.
