Vasilis Michaelides was a Greek Cypriot poet, remembered as a national poet. Sources place his birth between 1849 and 1853, so a page should not pretend to a single year. He wrote in Cypriot Greek, and the poem of the 9th of July 1821 is the one people still name. He died in 1917. The sample is a story more than a film reel.
