Overview

This book traces the figure of Selene from her roots in Greek mythology to her many reinterpretations across the centuries, revealing how the Moon was understood not merely as a celestial body, but as a symbolic force that shapes time, imagination, and human experience. The work immerses itself in ancient sources-hymns, poems, philosophical texts, and historical records-offering commented translations that bring readers closer to the original language of the Greeks and to the way the Moon was experienced as a divine, rhythmic, and living presence in the night sky. More than a mythological study, this is a journey through humanity's sensibility before the night: its mysteries, its phases, and its echoes in art, philosophy, psychology, and contemporary spirituality. By moving through different eras and interpretations, the book reveals how the Moon remains one of the most enduring images in human culture-a silent mirror that continues to reflect desires, fears, transformations, and the eternal attempt to understand time and existence.
