Book Characteristics
Description
A strange female figure, a shadow of an ancient woman, an Amazon, appears to a girl and awakens within her soul a primordial memory, conveying her own truths and messages to the modern world and to femininities everywhere.
Esotericism, primal memory, transcendent messages, and glimpses into the future compose the verses of this poetry collection.
More details
What can a “shadow” say to a girl?
What can a “shadow” say to you?
What connects the legendary women to us, globally and throughout time?
Another story…
The voice from the other side.
The myth through the eyes of women.
The end of patriarchy.
The emergence of the new world and the era of “She Who Brings the Water.”
And a love in eternity, a love that exists beyond time…
Stis Politeies tis Gynaikas- The third enlarged edition is here!
Stis Politeies tis Gynaikas – The third expanded edition is coming!
Killing a woman and stealing her girdle is a heroic act? How responsible and brave is it to always blame a “Hera” for your actions? How heroic is it to always blame a “Beautiful Helen” for all your crimes? Would you call a man who, under the hypocritical pretext of offering a gift of peace, invades another people’s land and slaughters its inhabitants simply “resourceful”? Or would you call him ruthless, treacherous and a criminal? What kind of future can a society have when it chooses such mythical or real-life figures as its heroes?
“The end always justifies the means”? Or is this exactly the mentality that has bled and destroyed our planet for so many centuries?
The story, told from the other side…
Without the usual chauvinistic lenses. Brutal acts, for what they are. No embellishments. No deliberate or unwitting attempts to whitewash them through ambiguous symbolism.
The voice from the other side. The myth through the eyes of women.
Shadows of restless souls in “myths” slandered by the patriarchy, finding here some rudimentary form of vindication.
Against the “demonization” of women by the patriarchy, and equally against the “idealization” of immoral male mythical characters, role models and behaviours, presented to the masses by the macho “priesthood” as heroes.
STIS POLITEIES TIS GYNAIKAS / IN THE WOMAN’S REALMS by Christina Margeti, Akakia Publications
In anticipation of the preparation of the third enlarged edition, let’s see a few basic things about the book Stis Politeies tis Gynaikas, Akakia Publications
Its author, Christina Margeti, was inspired and started writing it around 2013-2014. It was first printed in 2022 and published in London by Akakia Publications. In small size originally and in limited copies.
The heroines of the book are those women who were called Amazons, and the story here is presented through the eyes of women and not under the patriarchal, phallocratic prism.
It is dedicated indicatively to human rights activists who have passed away, such as Evangelia Vlami and Marina Galanou, to victims of violence such as Myrto in Paros, Zak Kostopoulos and Eleni Topaloudi, and to femininities worldwide and throughout time, without discrimination.
In 2023, the second enlarged edition was published and released by Akakia Publications. Is in Greek, but the whole poetry collection will be translated into English in due course.

“I have always liked writing since I was a child, in an amateur way. For me, writing has been the best way to express thoughts, emotions, dreams, worries, doubts, and my inner world. I write consciously only about what I love, what inspires me, and what makes me reflect, always with my heart.
I would never write flattering words about people I do not appreciate or respect, nor for professional or commercial reasons. My poetry and writings are infused with my own perception, consciousness, logic, heart, and values.
When an image, a dream, or an idea comes to me, I write it down and return to it whenever I have time and desire, continuing and refining it without haste, pressure, or obligation. I let my poems “breathe” and, over time, I mature them while preserving their original essence and authenticity.
I revisit the words, erase, write, erase again, and rewrite until I feel satisfied. I can publish my books multiple times if needed, until I feel I am offering my very best.
I aim for my verses to remain simple, so they do not become obscure, especially when they touch on social issues, so that readers can understand as clearly as possible what I am expressing.
I believe that every artist has the audience they deserve, and vice versa. I am grateful for a thoughtful audience that questions, does not accept “ready-made” answers, looks beyond the surface, does not judge based on covers or labels, and possesses empathy, sensitivity, and love for all beings, with respect for diversity and a vision for a better world.
For me, poetry is sacred—an elevated art without borders or limitations, universal and ahead of its time, expressing the Aquarian symbolism of innovation, independence, and freedom. It should stand by the oppressed and the marginalized, with supreme values of individual and social freedom and the well-being of all beings.”
Christina Margeti – Poetess, author of the book Stis Politeies tis Gynaikas & New Themiskyra’s Creator.
