L’osmosi tra l’Io e il Cosmo nell’antica Ellade
The Osmosis Between the Self and the Cosmos in Ancient Greece

Summary/Abstract: Since the dawn of civilization, human beings have sought in dance and music a way to reunite and osmotically merge with the Universe. This will to unite with the Cosmos is very strong in the society of ancient Greece, as documented by the paintings on the vases and other archaeological discoveries that have been made to this day. Even in the mythological heritage that the ancient Greeks left us and the epic poems to this day, we clearly observe this need to achieve ecstasy through music, dance and singing. Dance was the first expression of the Universe: body and spirit reached a melting point, reproducing an archetypal figure. This was also the only universe where the Greek woman could feel free and equal to the man.
