Doralice Fabiano is a Hellenist specializing in ancient Greek religion; she holds a PhD in ancient anthropology (Siena) and has taught at universities in Switzerland and Italy. Her research focuses on water deities, notably nymphs and river gods.
This lecture examines feminist rereadings of Greco‑Roman nymphs in contemporary art, investigating their roles in territory, marriage and the erotic sphere. Fabiano explores narrative and cultual ambivalence, the phenomenon of nympholepsy, and how ancient motifs are actualized today to interrogate nature, political belonging and gendered agency.
