Professors Nasos Vagenas and Anastasios-Ioannis D. Metaxas will be exchanging words and opinions in a conversation chaired by the journalist, Tina Mandilara.

How far do words correspond to what they describe? Do they represent our thoughts? How do they relate to what we want to stay the same and what we’d like to change? How do everyday words differ from terms, those ‘wise’ comings together of thoughts and things? How consciously do we participate in the use of a word, and what do we know if its history, public or private?
