Amen to that! Like honestly I do not get it the material is RIGHT THERE!

Man for real the only one who got close to make Circe as she deserved with her regal and yet creepy aura was Rossi with his mini-series in 1968 "L'Odissea" I swear! And even that doesn't seem to be nearly as cool as the real thing but it was the next best thing!

Like these "feministic" retellings can't even hold a candle to the real things!

Do tell me if you have addressed this before... Does Circe eat the pigs that used to be humans? Does she keep them to be eaten specifically, she eats them only sometimes, are they just trophies?

Would it count as cannibalism if they aren't human anymore?

Are there other animals on the island that used to be pigs?

Oh it has been quite a while since the last time I engaged to a conversation related to the matter! It doesn't matter if I had or hadn't addressed this before given how intriguing and fascinating subject it is! And to be fair I doubt there is one clear answer either but it is definitely a subject on the table (yeah pun intended! Sorry!) So here goes;

It does seem that Circe has many different animals in her court, like lions and wolves who appear to be her escorts. It is of course unclear whether those are indeed transformed humans (as Plutarch suggests for example to his work "Bruta Animalia Ratione uti" or Apollodorous with his Epitome who claims that some of Odysseus comrades were turned to other animals too) or actual creatures (Homer implies that she "bewitched them" but that could also mean simply that she controls their will). It is in fact Eurylochus who also expressed that the wolves and lions that guard her could be human when he tries to persuade the companions not to follow Odysseus to the house of Circe:

If we go to Circe's palace she will turn us all to swine or wolves or lions to guard her great house perforce!

(Translation by me)

Although it is some fear that Eurylochus has, it is hard to determine if that was a wink of Homer's as to what these creatures actually were. But either way they do seem like they do her bidding so it does seem possible that the animals she creates are also of practical purpose so to speak. So that also makes me wonder indeed that the pigs were there for purposes of that kind too. Now would they have other purposes other than food? Absolutely such as tracking or even, mind you, disposal of leftovers from cooking or food but I am almost certain that the pigs would have been used for food. Thus increasing the urgency in Odysseus's soul to save them. He wasn't just giving them back their humanity, he was potentially saving them from doom. Odysseus seems to imply that with these words:

But you have hostages my men in your halls and you have evil wiles in mind by keeping them there

(Translation by me)

Bear in mind how the word "wily of mind" is given with the word δολοφρονέουσα but the word φρονέω (to think/to plan) sounds incredibly close to the word φονεύω (to kill/to assassinate) could it be a correlation here? Perhaps. Now of course it needs to be said that contrary to homeric writing ancient people didn't eat meat THAT often anyway much less pork which was used through and through when cooked even bones and fat so it is hard to say when or how often Circe would demand a meal of pork or whether she would knowing that they are humans or not. It is kinda left there. It is not strictly said that the pigs were there for food in general so it is kinda left on interpretation at least as far as Homer is concerned. There seems to be a debate among some people on whether for example his companions even retained their reason throughout the process which is even more tragic to think of! That their memories of their homeland were gone so they had no idea what was happening but they knew they had to be human but they had no human speech to express themselves either which seems like being trapped in your own body which is another interesting notion of their transformation.

But I believe the essence of hurry and the feeling of urgency and sadness in Odysseus when his comrades were concerned that means he feared their actual life was in danger not just their dignity as human beings which already was bad enough for the ancient Greek standards. It seems that Odysseus at least feared that Circe would possibly kill them in their pig form or that the feeling wouldn't leave him alone even when he did extract the promise from Circe that she had nothing in store for them. By n large Odysseus's instinct was correct so I would say the danger of them being potentially killed or even devoured was strong there. Now whether Circe herself would devour the pigs or offer them as food to her wolves or lions is also another story but as I said I think the threat against their life was serious there.

Now as to whether someone were to slaughter one of them as they are a pig and whether that would be cannibalism I mean it definitely is an intriguing question. It seems that when myths are speaking on the transformation of a person to an animal, they still keep being referred to as people (see for example Aktaion when he is transformed into a deer by Artemis and devoured by his dogs, he is still mentioned by name) That and also the fact that as I said there even was a thought that his men maintained their reason even if trapped to the voice body and possibly behavior of an animal. Now there is also the question of what was considered "cannibalism" and such given how mostly we see it to human-shaped creatures but if human reason is enough as well as the birth as human (and birth and blood played a huge part in Greek literature as well) I think in one way it would be considered really problematic and yeah borderline cannibalistic if not straight out cannibalism if one were to devour one of the transformed pigs. And I find it also interesting how pigs were chosen of all animals especially with later years' talk about eating pork or how ironically close to dna of humans is the dna of pigs! So in one way I am just amazed at the connotations that are almost 3000 years old!

I hope this helps a bit! ^_^

OOOOOOH DEAR

yes those look incredibly greasy BUT!!! Its part of the experience. You can have better ones surely. And youre not used to cheakpeas!!! That must factor in too.

You can try rosticceria from Keppalle or sfrigola in the city center. Or FUD! It costs a bit but its good!! I never go out to eat there so i dont know many places tbh

also. yes. sfincione is that good. it truly is. god i love it so much. WHICH REMINDS ME,, the best sfincione in palermo is the one from graziano. but i have no idea how you can get to it without a car. or even with a car. nightmare parking. BUT they have a place called graziano a mare which is either in porto sant'erasmo or at the cala. Both places you should walk to! They are very nice and you can see the sea. So try going there! Fish meals. ive never been but i could put my hand in a fire over them.

wine i would need more specifications but!! try a passito or zibibbo if you can! they are dinner desserts to take after a meal. im sure restaurants have them.

But!!! im so happy youre enjoying your stay!!!! Also go inside san giuseppe dei teatini (if you havent already) i find it stunning!!!!!!!!

Big kissies and never feel embarassed to write or tag me. I wish i were there to walk you around!!! 💜💜💜💜

@gelataisa panelle tasted strangely for me, but probably I bought it in the wrong place (just felt too excited to be choosy). It was way too greasy and maybe I am just not used to chickpea... Shall try it again in some better place.

Sfincione. It's awesome. I thought it would be good, but had no idea it will be THAT GOOD.

Divinely delicious. It was a wonder even though it was not warm when I ate it. The dough is unbelievably tasty and, it goes without saying, the filling (topper..?) is magnificent.

And tried some local-ohmygoditsevenbetterthansfincione-wine, so I'm not even embarrassed to tag you here. Maybe a little bit. Anyway, thanks for all your recommendations!!! Rooftop of the church of santissimo Salvatore, Santa Catarina (its marble interior is stunning), everything. I'm just in love with this place.

Do these chickpeas have anything in them to nurture our health?

Fried Gram, also commonly known as chickpeas, are an inevitable item in South Asian Business with raisins. There wouldn't be any disagreement on the fact that chickpeas are a healthy and tasty snack! Statistics across the world points that Women after '30s don't care for their own health seriously. It's high on time to make little changes to our diet to lead a healthy lifestyle. We in Asia, have these chickpeas in our grocery list often and many times they remain unused on our kitchen shelf... Let's see what all these chickpeas have got within them to nourish our health...

Chickpeas contain Nutrients!

Chickpeas have unbelievable nutritional benefits. They contain a sufficient amount of calories, providing minimal calories per serving. Approximately more than fifty-percent of calories are from carbohydrates, while the rest comes from a small portion of fat and protein. Chickpeas also contain a variety of minerals and vitamins as well as a substantial amount of fiber and iron your body.

Chickpeas Control Your Appetite!

The protein and fiber in chickpeas help your appetite to stay under control...It effectively keeps you away from munching food often. Protein and fiber work energetically to slow down your digestion process, which keeps your tummy full. In addition, protein increases the levels of Leptin (appetite-Stop harmone) in the body. So, naturally, the filling advantage of the fiber and protein in chickpeas supports you to consume less and lowers your calorie intake throughout the day. More researches have confirmed that chickpeas play a dominant role to have in appetite control. However, they are certainly worth adding to your diet if you want to experiment with their fullness-promoting effects.

Fitness Partner!

Chickpeas have wonderful properties that may help you to stay in the right size and shape, more importantly, fit and free from obesity. First, chickpeas have low-calorie density. This means they provide few calories relative to the number of nutrients they contain. People who eat lots of low-calorie foods are more likely to lose weight and maintain it than those who eat a lot of high-calorie foods. Furthermore, the protein and fiber in chickpeas may promote weight management due to their appetite-lowering effects and potential to help reduce calorie intake at meals (8Trusted Source). In one study, those who ate chickpeas regularly were less likely to be obese and had a lower body mass index and weight circumference, compared to those who did not eat chickpeas.

Keeps Your Blood Sugar in control!

Chickpeas have an enormous amount of protein, fiber, and iron which helps in regulating the level of insulin secretion in the body. It automates to control blood sugar levels in the blood. The fiber contained in the chickpeas slows down carbs absorption and regulates the blood sugar levels.

Benefits Digestion!

Chickpeas are loaded with fiber, which has several proven benefits for the digestion process... The fiber in chickpeas is mostly soluble, meaning it blends with water and forms a gel-like substance in the digestive tract. Soluble fiber stimulates the number of healthy bacteria in your gut and prevents the overgrowth of unhealthy bacteria. This can lead to a reduced risk of some digestive conditions, such as irritable bowel syndrome and colon cancer...

How to leave the Pregnancy period!

Chickpeas are full of fiber, protein, folic acids and minerals which is considered as a safe food for a pregnant woman. They are known to prevent anemia in which the number of red blood cells decreases in the body or there is a decrease in hemoglobin levels. Iron is the constituent that helps in the synthesis of red blood cells and chickpeas are excellent sources of iron. Chickpeas are excellent sources of folic acid and are known to prevent neural defects in the baby. Happy Women's Day to all lovely Women throughout the world From CMS Agro Foods
