Produktbeschreibung
The Oracle of Delphi has foretold the fate of the Spartan army, but what did she really mean? This historical fiction tells the tale of betrayal in high places and a secret, forbidden romance. Whose voice will prevail? Which army will win the day? And what can a young lady learn from her little sister? #535 in the Bilingual Legends series. This book is in both English and Tsakonian. Additional Credits Translation Editor: Maxim Kisilier Maxim Kisilier is associate professor of Saint Petersburg University and senior fellow at the Institute for Linguistic Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences. His main research interests are the history of Modern Greek, Modern Greek dialects, Balkan studies and linguistic anthropology. In January 2010, he spent several days in Tsakonia (Eastern Peloponnese, Greece) and was so deeply impressed by the region and its people that he decided to focus his activities on Tsakonian speech and culture. In 2012, he produced the film "The Tsikaliotis Tower" (www.tsakonianarchives.gr/video-pyrgos-tsikaliotis/, directed by Daria Agafonova) about the unique stone fortress-house in Leonidio (the capital of Tsakonia), which belonged to the local merchant Konstantinos Tsikaliotis. In 2016, Maxim Kisilier was awarded the Badge of Honour from the Tsakonian Archive for his contributions to the preservation and description of Tsakonian. Maxim Kisilier participates in various projects aimed at the revitalization of Tsakonian. He teaches it through the Free Tsakonian Summer School organized annually by the Tsakonian Archive and gives free online Tsakonian lessons every week.

Autorenporträt
Como poeta australiano, es difícil encontrar trabajo en el outback. Pero hay niños en todo el mundo que luchan por aprender a leer. Algunos apenas tienen libros en su lengua materna. Por eso creé la serie Leyendas Bilingües: para dar al mayor número posible de niños la oportunidad de leer una historia en su lengua materna. Normalmente, cada libro se publica en la lengua que se habla en el país de origen de la historia. Un libro típico también incluye el texto en español, pero en algunos casos se emplea otro idioma en su lugar. Espero que disfrute leyendo mis libros.
