On the Routes of Ulysses
From Troy to Ithaca between Myth and Reality
by Angelo Pellegrino
with appendix by Flavia Ferrante
The author takes us on a historical, geographical, and artistic journey through the Mediterranean, retracing the stages of Ulysses’ voyage and identifying – between history, economy, and geography – the cities and regions whose locations have been attested by archaeological evidence and epigraphic findings.
A voyage along Ulysses’ routes and his relationship with the West, to understand a myth that has transcended the small island, expanding the narrative toward distant horizons and spreading its seed throughout the world.
Completing and enriching the account is a detailed analysis by Flavia Ferrante on the figure of Ulysses and his perception in art, tracing the changing fortunes of his image through the centuries.
