First sentence: Although Seferis made his first appearance in Greek letters with his Turning Point, it is his Mythistorema that is generally considered to have marked a real turning point in modern Greek poetry, because in it Seferis, while keeping both his very personal tone and his uniquely Greek character, used for the first time the modern literary techniques elaborated by Joyce, Eliot and Pound.
