Με αφορμή την Παγκόσμια Ημέρα Ελληνικής Γλώσσας να θυμηθούμε τους ιστορικούς λόγους του Ξενοφώντος Ζολώτα ως διοικητή της Τράπεζας της Ελλάδος και διαχειριστή του ελληνικού Δημοσίου Χρέους.
Η πρώτη πραγματοποιήθηκε στην Ουάσινγκτον, στις 26 Σεπτεμβρίου 1957 και προκάλεσε τόσο ενθουσιασμό που μετά από απαίτηση του επικεφαλής της διεθνούς Τράπεζας, επαναλήφθηκε παρόμοια ομιλία στις 2 Οκτωβρίου του 1959 όταν ο Ζολώτας ήταν διοικητής της Τράπεζας της Ελλάδος...
Η γλώσσα των λόγων του ήταν η αγγλική, αλλά, με την εξαίρεση λίγων συνδέσμων, άρθρων και προθέσεων, όλες οι χρησιμοποιούμενες λέξεις ήταν ελληνικής προέλευσης. Ο λόγοι του έκαναν μεγάλη εντύπωση, ωστόσο επρόκειτο περισσότερο για ένα διανοητικό παιχνίδι, σχεδιασμένο για να τέρψει την ελίτ των τραπεζιτών και των ισχυρών της παγκόσμιας οικονομίας και να τους υπενθυμίσει την ύπαρξη της Ελλάδας, η οποία μόλις είχε βγει από τον Εμφύλιο πόλεμο εντελώς κατεστραμμένη.
Το κείμενο της πρώτης ομιλίας του
Kyrie, I eulogize the archons of the Panethnic Numismatic Thesaurus and the Oecumenical Trapeza for the orthodoxy of their axioms methods and policies, although there is an episode of cacophony of the Trapeza with Hellas. With enthusiasm we dialogue and synagonize at the synods of our didymous Organizations in which polymorphous economic ideas and dogmas are analyzed and synthesized. Our critical problems such as the numismatic plethora generate some agony and melancholy. This phenomenon is charateristic of our epoch. But, to my thesis we have the dynamism to program therapeutic practices as a prophylaxis from chaos and catastrophe. In parallel a panethnic unhypocritical economic synergy and harmonization in a democratic climate is basic. I apologize for my eccentric monologue. I emphasize my eucharistia to your Kyrie to the eugenic and generous American Ethnos and to the organizers and protagonists of this Ampitctyony and the gastronomic symposia.
Το κείμενο της δεύτερης ομιλίας του
Kyrie, It is Zeus’ anathema on our epoch for the dynamism of our economies and the heresy of our economic methods and policies that we should agonize the Scylla of numismatic plethora and the Charybdis of economic anaemia. It is not my idiosyncrasy to be ironic or sarcastic, but my diagnosis would be that politicians are rather cryptoplethorists. Although they emphatically stigmatize numismatic plethora, they energize it through their tactics and practices. Our policies have to be based more on economic and less on political criteria. Our gnomon has to be a metron between political, strategic and philanthropic scopes. Political magic has always been anti-economic. In an epoch characterized by monopolies, oligopolies, monophonies, monopolistic antagonism and polymorphous inelasticities, our policies have to be more orthological. But this should not be metamorphosed into plethorophobia, which is endemic among academic economists. Numismatic symmetry should not hyper-antagonize economic acme. A greater harmonization between the practices of the economic and numismatic archons is basic. Parallel to this, we have to synchronize and harmonize more and more our economic and numismatic policies panethnically. These scopes are more practicable now, when the prognostics of the political and economic barometer are halcyonic. The history of our didymus organizations in this sphere has been didactic and their gnostic practices will always be a tonic to the polyonymous and idiomorphous ethnical economies. The genesis of the programmed organization will dynamize these policies. Therefore, I sympathize, although not without criticism on one or two themes, with the apostles and the hierarchy of our organs in their zeal to program orthodox economic and numismatic policies, although I have some logomachy with them. I apologize for having tyrannized you with my Hellenic phraseology. In my epilogue, I emphasize my eulogy to the philoxenous autochthons of this cosmopolitan metropolis and my encomium to you, Kyrie, and the stenographers
