Abstract

The essay studies the relationship between the sea and the orientation towards the infinite, between the sea and war that is established in Greek culture. Vincenzo Consolo in his writings reflects on the ecological and political disasters occurring in the Mediterranean basin and reinterprets the myth of Odysseus as representing the archetype of the actual crisis of European episteme.
