Rivers, Water Mythologies, and Venice
Original language description
This lesson opens a window onto the complex interactions between the human and the non-human in the history ofVenice from a cross-disciplinary perspective. Rivers shaped the Venetian lagoon for millennia and created many of theislands that form the Venetian archipelago. Since prehistory this area was transformed by the interactive agency ofrivers, the sea and humans. In the ancient world rivers were perceived as powerful deities with a will of their own. Greekand Roman myths tell of river gods fighting human heroes, reflecting human desire for mastery over the environment.
