Persefone oltre la soglia. Il mito del ratto di Persefone nella ricezione contemporanea

This research looks at how the contemporary reception of the myth of Persephone against the paradoxical backdrop of a growing media saturation of Classical culture, despite its contemporary marginalisation in traditional educational contexts. Adopting a mixed approach of Classical Reception Studies, Cultural Studies, and socio-semiotic and intermedial narratology, the study examines how ancient narrative models continue to shape, inspire, and be transformed by modern cultural systems, including popular literature and audiovisual productions.
