NOSTOS - NOSTALGIA

Uploaded by OMIROS2 on Jun 13, 2010
Nostos (Greek: νόστος) is the Greek word for homecoming. It is a theme dealt with in many Homeric writings such as the Odyssey, in which the main character, Odysseus, strives to get home after the Trojan War.
The word nostalgia was first coined as a medical term in 1688 by Johannes Hofer (1669-1752), a Swiss medical student. It uses the word νόστος along with another Greek root, άλγος or algos, meaning pain or longing, to describe the psychological condition of longing for the past.
Homer was not the only who rhapsodized Ithaki. At all times of history the island was the muse for many poets and men of letters. Ithaca is every man's destination, what he cherishes most in his life. And the journey personifies the route to knowledge, the philosophy of wisdom, which is completed only when he reaches up his Ithaca.
