Guidorizzi Giulio | Romani Silvia

Summary

Giulio Guidorizzi, Silvia Romani: Sicily of the Gods: Mythology, History, Culture

Since ancient times, civilizations have invaded Sicily one after the other. But the Greeks left an indelible mark on that land - one that still forms its deepest being today. The gods never left the island. In the sunny fields of midsummer, along the roads clinging to the rocks of the Sicilian mountains, you can still hear Heracles calling to his flocks and Odysseus taunting the Cyclops. At dusk, processions in honor of the gods still flow through Agrigento, Selinunto and Segest. When day summons night, in the theaters of Syracuse and Taormina, the myth speaks again through the presentation of tragedies - with the powerful voice it must have had in the 5th century BC, in Greece. Sicily, the land of refuge for gods and heroes, nymphs and philosophers, monsters and kings, is the embodiment of that magical, joyful wonder that the Greeks loved so much. In the book "Sicily of the Gods. Mythology, History, Culture", university professors Giulio Guidorici and Silvia Romani continue to follow the development of Greek mythology in its geographical and historical context, this time in Sicily, the largest Mediterranean island. By researching famous Sicilian historical places, telling stories from the past and present, the authors have created a kind of small cultural history of Sicily with this book.
