Sergent Bernard; De Turris G. (cur.)
Celti e greci. Il libro degli eroi
br. Storico, archeologo, antropologo e presidente della Società di mitologia francese, Bernard Sergent ricostruisce in questo saggio le origini comuni di celti ed elleni, entrambi con un ceppo comune. I due popoli elaborarono costumi sociali simili intorno al VI-VII secolo a.C. e nei miti comuni si possono rintracciare costumi comuni, anche se i cicli di riferimento sono diversi: quelli greci sono classici, quelli irlandesi risalgono a molto dopo, il 700-800 d.C.

L'odissea di Argo. Ediz. a colori
ill., br. Tutti conoscono la storia di Odisseo, il re di Itaca, uno degli eroi della guerra di Troia. Ma chi conosce davvero la storia del suo cane, Argo? Qual è stata la sua «odissea»? Cosa passa per la testa di un cane? Quali sono i suoi pensieri? Come vede la realtà che lo circonda? Cosa prova esattamente? Forse non lo sapremo mai con certezza. Non ci resta che provare a metterci «dalla parte del cane» e scoprire la straordinaria storia d'amore vissuta con il suo padrone Odisseo. Età di lettura: da 10 anni.
