Semiramide: Racconto babilonese

Set against the fertile banks of the Euphrates, the story opens in the legendary city of Babylon, a place where myth and history intertwine. The narrator paints a vivid picture of towering walls, bustling markets, and the restless gods whose wills shape the destiny of kings and common folk alike. Amidst this richly detailed tapestry, a young woman of extraordinary beauty and ambition begins to emerge, hinting at a destiny that could reshape an empire.

The narrative draws on an impressive range of ancient sources—from Herodotus to the Bible—giving the tale a scholarly depth while remaining fully immersive. As the first act unfolds, readers are introduced to the complex social fabric of Babylon: the rival factions of Sumir, Akkad, the Turanians, and the remnants of Sem’s lineage. Through elegant prose and careful world‑building, the story invites listeners to explore a world of towering ziggurats, whispered conspiracies, and the nascent stirrings of a legend that will echo through the ages.
