Classical heritage is not just an echo of the past but rather a living tissue that interferes in the fabric of our daily life, influencing culture, politics, medicine, architecture, and even the language and literature we are drinking. However, have we ever wondered about the deep origins of these effects and how our modern interpretations may move away or approach their authentic essence? This book is presented by a "literary observation series" an invitation to reconsider and discover the classic heritage with renewed eyes, explaining its effective and continuous role in formulating our world, whether in the distant past or in our contemporary present. The book encourages the adoption of a new perspective to understand this ancient cultural heritage, stressing the importance of continuing research and meditation in this influential cultural element.
