Nicephor Herrantes

​
Nicephor Herrantes is a Modern Greek Studies Scholar and researcher at the University of São Paulo. His lecture/performance in Sound Acts examined an unpublished manuscript of Nikolaos Politis (1850-1921), the father of Greek Folk-Studies. This manuscript contains twenty-four disavowed “selections from the songs of the Greek people”. These silenced texts raise issues about various forms of homoerotic desire, while they decry the impossibility for different kinds of radical subjects to become worthy of mourning. ​
