Olympic Games in Ancient Greece
The year is 432 B.C., and the 87th Olympiad is about to begin. Through the tender story of Lydia and Kallias, we'll be guided through Elis, city of the ancient Olympic Games. We'll take a stroll through the sacred grove of Olympia, with its hallowed Temples and Treasuries,
and we'll see the Prytaneion, the Pelopion, and the Bouleuterion. We'll learn all about the games and the religious ceremonies and cultural events which took place in parallel to the athletic contests. We'll talk to artists and philosophers of the day, getting a better sense of the Olympic spirit, where it came from, and how it resonates still at the modern-day Olympics. A perfect way to prepare for the upcoming 2024 Games in Paris!

Tassos Apostolidis
Né en **1947** à Thessalonique, **Tassos Apostolidis** est un auteur, enseignant et scénariste grec spécialisé dans l’adaptation des grands textes et mythes antiques. Après des études de mathématiques, il se consacre à l’écriture et à la bande dessinée, collaborant avec des dessinateurs renommés comme **Alecos Papadatos**. Son œuvre, marquée par un mélange d’érudition et d’humour, inclut des adaptations des comédies d’*Aristophane*, de *L’Odyssée* d’Homère, ou encore d’*Antigone* de Sophocle. *Aristotle - Part 1* s’inscrit dans cette démarche de rendre accessible la pensée antique à un large public.
