Synopsis

This title brings together a set of texts, grouped into two sections: a Part 1, still focused on the old myths and their expression in the ancient theatre, tragic and comic, and a Part 2, which goes through a variety of rewritings, dispersed among the various literatures under discussion.
In addition to returning to the specific analysis of some classical myths and themes, it expands a set of studies on mainly contemporary rewritings, scattered across different literatures of the Latin world, set in specific historical contexts that explain and justify them.
