An original presentation on the importance of the female figure in epic poetry.

The wife who waits at home and cries or opposes the logic of war -Andromache in the Iliad, Manuela Mandracchia- or the wife who patiently but undefeated awaits her husband’s return -Penelope in the Odyssey, Gaia Aprea- or the lover, the pleasure of sex and jealousy and the horror of then being abandoned –Dido in the Aeneid, Lucrezia Lante della Rovere- but also the woman warrior and battles experienced as females as heroes, Camilla in the Aeneid, Eleonora Danco. A feminine world that exists and lives around heroes such as Aeneas, Hector, Odysseus or Turnus, portrayed by Massimo Popolizio with the maestro Alberto Caruso at the piano and directed by Piero Maccarinelli.
