Synopsis "The Twilight of the Magical Siren: A Tale of Late Antiquity (in English)"
The Twilight of the Magical Siren is the tale of Judah, a young Jewish man, adrift, living during the Western Roman Empire in the fourth century CE, a time when a newly triumphant Christianity overcame and marginalized the cults of the old pagan gods. One evening Judah meets an ancient goddess abandoned by this newly Christianized Empire, a beautiful siren with a melancholy song. Judah becomes obsessed with the goddess. He alternately loves and hates her, but cannot break away. She will haunt and chase him, and ultimately drive him from a happy domestic life to the delights and terrors of her magical cavern in the heart of an enchanted mountain. Drawing motifs from the medieval Tannhauser myth, The Twilight of the Magical Siren explores the temptations and pitfalls of abandoning one's life for the hypnotic song of the pagan goddess.
