A-critical thinking and in-evaluation

A column I shared by Christos Yannaras in Kathimerini (14 June 2020), with a machine translation “for some comedy moments”. Yannaras argues that critical evaluation has quietly disappeared from Greek public life: pupils are not graded, excellence is not rewarded, and judgements of quality, from book reviews to state prizes, have been replaced by the trade in impressions.
