Heurs et malheurs d’un tyran: le cas de Hiéron de Syracuse, in Pallas 79, 2009, 81-103
2009
The analysis focuses on the figure of Hieron, a Syracusan tyrant who met with mixed fortune in scholarly studies. Often compared with his brother Gelon, the second of the Deinomenides was seen as a rapacious and violent tyrant. We here reconsider the testimonies on Hieron in order to find out to what extent that judgement actually corresponds to the image which the tradition of Antiquity gave of the tyrant. The case of Hieron offers above all an opportunity to examine the lines which oriented the studies on tyranny in Sicily and to provide an outline of the latest prospects of research. L’analyse se concentre sur la figure de Hiéron, tyran de Syracuse, qui eut une fortune diverse dans les é…
“She Shuddered on her Throne and Made high Olympus Quake.” Causes, Effects and Meanings of the Divine Nemesis in Homer
2015
This article aims at exploring the Homeric gods’ sensitivity to a particular kind of indig- nation that is expressed in the Homeric po- ems by the term nemesis and by the verbal forms arising from it. My purpose is to an- alyse the passages that allow us to establish the causes of divine nemesis towards the mortals and the gods themselves, as well as their effects. This survey also represents an opportunity for investigating the relation between the attribution of emotions to the Greek gods and the anthropomorphic repre- sentation of the divine.

Dei, semidei ed eroi nella Sicilia greca
2022
Quando la presenza di Odisseo comincia ad essere localizzata anche in Sicilia, a partire dalla seconda metà del V secolo a.C., nell’isola erano già presenti molti culti e presenze divine ed eroiche. In questa breve sintesi il paesaggio religioso siciliano è descritto attraverso quel prezioso Baedeker ante litteram che è (almeno per alcuni aspetti) la Biblioteca diodorea. When the presence of Odysseus also began to be localised in Sicily, starting in the second half of the 5th century BC, many cults and divine and heroic presences were already present on the island. In this brief summary, the Sicilian religious landscape is described through that precious Baedeker ante litteram that is (at l…
Voce "Olympian deities"
2016
The Greek gods are collectively designated in the literary sources as Olympian, with a clear reference to their seat on the top of Olympos mountain, or more generally in heaven. Beginning with nineteenth-century scholarship, Olympian deities have been considered a monolithic divine category separate from the chthonic deities in a dichotomous understanding of Greek religion.
