Lena Thodoropoulou’s Dealing with a Paradox, considers the creation of unexpected actions in the context of an urban environment. The path that is being followed though is not the one that would lead to the construction of a definition of unexpectedness. Emphasis is placed on the distinction between the creations of unexpected actions as conveyors of instabilities – causing the provocation of basic social structures – and unexpectedness as an element of surprise – incidents or behaviors that do not form part of an individual’s or society’s’ sphere of knowledge. The main purpose is to present unexpectedness as an action that cannot be analyzed as a whole through language, its force laying in the fact that it cannot be captured.
