On the occasion of the organization of the 7th Seferis Symposium, the Mayor of Ayia Napa, Mr. Christos Zannetou, stated that "the Seferis Symposium has now been established as an important scientific and cultural institution for the Municipality of Ayia Napa, which brings together academics, researchers, students and friends of literature, with the aim of studying and highlighting the work and intellectual legacy of George Seferis, the first Greek Nobel Prize laureate in Literature.
"We feel proud," he added, "that our city is one of the areas of Cyprus that the poet particularly loved and was a source of his inspiration." "Therefore," he noted, "as a small tribute to our Nobel Prize-winning Poet, we will continue to consistently highlight his work and his timeless relationship with Cyprus and Ayia Napa through this important event."
