The Traino Stin Poli publishing group (lit. Train in the City) was active in Limassol during the period 1987-1994. It maintained close relations with the social space Chrysallida, where it was occasionally hosted. It also took part in the Support Committee for Conscientious Objector Y. Parpas.
Group Identity
Traino started in the spring of 1987 as an expression of the antiauthoritarian-alternative milieu of Limassol and was formed in the café-bar Chrysallida. Chrysallida was closed (mutated) in January 1990. Since then, Traino has been published as a pancyprian alternative-antiauthoritarian forum of expression and dialogue.
As a matter of principle (a matter of freedom, liberty and anti-censorship), all comments and critical letters on texts of the journal (in the Dialogue section) are published. Other texts are published if they do not have racist, nationalist, sexist, anti-gay, authoritarian and generally disrespectable views. Traino is paid for by our proletarian toil and it is thus self-evident that it publishes opinions that are intended to stimulate, challenge, reflect and if possible stimulate pleasure to a people that search of “passages” (as a friendly Greek publication puts it) for the “life that is elsewhere”.
As a publication, like Chrysallida, which gave birth to it, it is a space of freedom and not of propaganda or promotion of opinions. The editorial team is responsible for organising the material into sections and for translating or republishing texts that complete a presentation. Editorial comments are binding only on the editorial team, and texts are binding only on the authors.
Traino is open to all 4 languages used in Cyprus: Cypriot, Greek (Athenian), Turkish and English. So far the majority of the texts are in Greek because it has been emblazoned as the written language in the region where we live - and because the publication has readers in Greece who have nothing to do with the authoritarian history of their language on the eros-island [ερώνησο].
Traino, as is known, is a CYPRIOT publication.1)
