An original documentary series, which for the first time in Greece documents the journey of rescuing the ancient texts from the past until today. A journey of exploration full of adventure, travel, libraries, but also great disasters. Thodoris Papakostas, presenter of the series, is an archaeologist with a special eye and knowledge on the subject. With him, we travel everywhere and talk to philologists, paleographers, and historians. Experts illuminate the adventures of texts through the ages, present the means and techniques employed from era to era to save our written heritage and tell us fascinating stories of people and manuscripts.
