Abstract

The monograph by Luigi Frudà (Taormina, Naxos e l'Alcantara di Sicilia: un fiume dal nome "ponte" e le sue storie, Editoriale Agorà, Catania, 2023) offers a comprehensive narrative of a territory whose individual parts, closely interconnected since antiquity, have often been studied and narrated in a disorganised manner. Taking this volume as a starting point, without claiming to be complete, we reconsider what has been written about this territory, privileging those narratives that, by freeing Taormina from its "isolation", reconstruct the unity of the context and the interconnections offering more original and authentic narratives.
