PÉREZ SANTAFÉ, JESÚS ; PÉREZ SANTAFÉ, JESÚS
Somewhat unconsciously, the Greek gods see themselves in an inertia that, without intending it, moves them towards the west, following the direction of the Sun, just as successive Western civilizations have been doing, which, without knowing it, have been moved towards the west successively, as if they were searching for the sacred place where the Sun hides,... especially when, as successive civilizations fall, the Sun seems to have become the only guide in whom they can trust in everything the universe….
Perhaps for this reason, all these civilizations have taken the name "Western" since they have always been moving towards the west, as if they wanted to discover the place where the gods guard the knowledge of everything human (in whose wisdom they have always been inspired). classical Greek logic) transferring the winds of the Euro to these old Greek gods, first to Rome, through the Mediterranean, and now to these British Isles, refounding these old immigrant gods their new Olympus under new Celtic identities, on a sacred mountain called Snowdon by its native peoples (Britons, Scots, Picts, etc.), making it their new Olympus, long before these lands become the future Great Britain.. .
Not even the Greek goddess Athena is saved from this involuntary migration. After having to abandon her previous Roman name of Minerva, she will have to adopt a new identity under the name “BRITANNIA”, becoming the queen of these lands. and just as Athena was the protective goddess who gave name to the capital of the Greek Empire: Athens, Britannia will also give name to the future Empire that these new gods will begin to forge from now on.
And although these old gods will avoid “Homer's Iliad”, they will nevertheless have to undertake another kind of Iliad, “Brutus's”, until they reach Britain, whose descendants, over time, will also end up dispersing towards the west, through the seas of the New Empire of the Commonwealth, beginning to found its first colonies in America.
Among the many references to classical Greek culture, it is worth highlighting the punishment of "The 12 Labors of Hercules" that these new gods imposed on their inhabitants, condemning them to demonstrate through 12 empirical tests, what time is, or what light, or the space of the Universe, or gravity, magnetism, or electricity -, illuminating with the overcoming of such tests the birth of a new Empiricism that will serve to propel Europe towards greater knowledge of all scientific fields, with advances in both Astronomy and Physics, with Newton's laws, or the evolution of Darwin's species, creating inventions such as J.Watt's steam engine, the basis of the first Industrial Revolution in the West, promoting scientific research that (-as will happen with vaccines) will improve the living conditions of the population, at the same time that, -after being the first country to recognize the female vote-, will improve women's rights, achieving at the same time a greater professional progress in research, as will be demonstrated by discoveries that will range from the double helix of DNA to contraceptives, leaving far behind that old Bronze Age metallurgy of the axes offered to their previous gods at the Havering site, (-al that we should send this book... which aims to educationally collect the rich history, inventions and discoveries of these British lands, since ancient times.
Some curiosities are also mentioned, such as the magical properties of some vegetables with psychoactive components (-well known to druids-), or strange phenomena detected by some animals such as pigeons or salmon, whose special sensitivity allows them to orient themselves thanks to magnetic fields. from the Earth..
