^Un concept folkloriques », Kefi" - ou le bonheur qui l'accompagne rivalisent - est un mot très lié à l'éthique culturelle de la Grèce
^^^^Kefi is a hard-to-translate word which has been described by various Greeks as meaning the spirit of joy, passion, enthusiasm, high spirits, or frenzy. The custom of smashing plates is considered an expression of kefi, when the soul and body are overwhelmed with an exuberance that must find an outlet. The frenzied maenads - in ordinary life, Greek matrons - following Dionysus in ancient times were probably expressing a variety of kefi.
