Abstract
This article discusses Salvino Nucera's (b. 1952) collection of poetry written in Greko (Calabrian Greek, Grecanic) – a language of a small community in Southern Calabria. The article focuses on the poetic strategies of constructing a modern subject in a language that is intrinsically connected to traditional pastoral culture and provides extremely limited vocabulary. It is argued that Nucera refers to the Calabrian landscape, often to specific places, typical elements of nature and everyday practices, which in his poetry become universal metaphors and create an image of a modern intellectual's complex identity.
