Product Information
Turning to a region of South Italy associated with Greater Greece and the geographies of Homer's Odyssey , Marco Benoît Carbone delivers a historical and ethnographic treatment of how places defined in public imagination and media by their associated histories become sites of memory and identity, as their landscape and mythologies turn into insignia of a romanticised antiquity. For the ancient Greeks, Homer had set the marine monsters of the Odyssey in the Strait between Calabria and Sicily. Since then, this passage has been glowing with the aura of its mythological landmarks. Travellers and tourists have played Odysseus by re-enacting his journey. Scholars and explorers have explained the myths as metaphors of whirlpools and marine fauna. The iconic Strait and village of Scilla have turned into place-myths and playgrounds, defined by the region's heritage. Carbone observes the enduring impact of Hellas on the real Strait today. The continuous rekindling of cultural and visual traditions of place in the arts, media, travel, and tourism have intersected with philhellenic historiographies, shaping local policies, public histories, views of development, and forms of Hellenicist identitarianism. Elements of society have celebrated the landscape of the Odyssey , appropriated Homer as their imagined heirs, and purported themselves as the original Europeans-pandering to outdated ideological appropriations of 'classical' antiquity and exclusionary, West-centric views of the Mediterranean.

Reviews
"[A]n innovative investigation into the relationship between the Scylla and Charybdis of the Odyssey and the southern Italian town of Scilla." -- Greece and Rome "Carbone's ethnographic approach to Homeric and Greek narratives in southern Italy can be useful for everyone who studies and teaches the artifacts and texts of the ancient Greek world...There is much anti-racist work to do, and for it to make a difference, plenty of people, from all kinds of standpoints, need to undertake such work. Carbone's study is a model for what some of that work can look like, accomplish, and inspire." --Catherine Connors, Arion: A Journal of the Humanities and the Classics "The book's investigation into contemporary culture and ethnography is an excavation inside the minds, bodies, perceptions and languages of the inhabitants of the 'scilleccariddi Region'." -- The Classical Review "This text is an exciting entry in the study of ancient Greece and antiquities. The author skillfully weaves historical analyses of Greece, Homer's Odyssey , and ancient mythology with ethnographic considerations of the contemporary Strait of Messina. A welcomed and necessary study of the significance of ancient Greek mythology in the contemporary world." --Scott A.
