The term of [[Generation of 1930]], refers to all those new writers and poets who matured between [[1930]] and [[1940]]. It concerns a group of intellectuals that were eager to break with the past or at least to differentiate themselves from it. The [[Generation of 1930]] had a dialogue with other directions and artistic trends of the time and made its entrance to the scene of [[Greek]] cultural activity as an avantgarde movement, cultivating the speculation around the concept of Greek identity.
