The song is ΔΕ Σ'AΦΗΝΩ - de s'afino (I won't let you go) by Giannis Parios (ΓΙΑΝΝΗΣ ΠΑΡΙΟΣ).
The Cyclopes (Κύκλωπες) were mythological creatures who had one eye. In Homer's Odyssey, the Greek hero Odysseus (Ὀδυσσεύς) lands on an island and encounters a Cyclops (Κύκλωψ) called Polyphemus (Πολύφημος). The cyclops closes his cave with a boulder, and then proceeds to eat Odysseus's crew. What the Greek hero does is give him strong wine, and when the Cyclops fell asleep, the Greeks gouged Polyphemus's eye. To escape, they grabbed on to the wool of sheep as they were allowed out to eat.
This event earned the wrath of Poseidon, who tried to take revenge on Odysseus, which led to his other trials and adventures.
The Byzantine Humanists and the Rebirth of Hellenic Thought
The song is Μαζί σου - Mazi sou (with you), from Peggy Zina (Πέγκυ Ζήνα).
The Byzantine Humanists were intellectuals who gave birth to the last Byzantine Renaissance, with their zeal and love for Ancient Greek learning. After the fall of Constantinople in 1453, most of them moved to Italy and Corsica, where they taught Ancient Greek to Italians. They also taught the works of Plato and Aristotle. It was through a rediscovery of Greek learning that Europe made achievements in science. This period was known as the Renaissance (literally, the Rebirth).
Humanists comes from the term Humanitas, used for the all encompassing education that was the foundation of Ancient Greek civilization.
These individuals include:
Theodore Methochites (Θεόδωρος Μετοχίτης), who was a great patron of the Arts, George Plethon Gemistos (Γεώργιος Πλήθων Γεμιστός) who was the greatest and last revivalist of Greek philiosphy in the middle ages, Barlaam of Calabria who taught ancient Greek to Petrarch and Boddaccio, Manuel Chrysoloras the first Ancient Greek teacher in Italy, Basilios (also known as John) Bessarion (Βασίλειος Βησσαρίων) who was a scholar and translator in Italy, and John Argyropoulos, who was a teacher of philosophy.
