Rationes Rerum 20
EDUARDO FEDERICO
Realtà e finzione nell’Occidente mitico. Polibio, Omero e la plane di Odisseo
A fragment of Polybius’ Book XXXIV, transmitted by Strabo, states that Aeolus was not a mythical figure, but a meteorologist who lived in the Aeolian Islands and became king because of his ability to predict the direction of the winds. The hypothesis that Polybius was here influenced by Euhemerism is rejected.
