Voici une étude importante sur bien des points. En rédigeant mes différents ouvrages, jamais je n'aurais imaginé découvrir un écrit aussi détaillé sur la mythologie grecque - vaste sujet parallèle à mes recherches - pourtant rarement explorée de mon côté par manque de temps, mais aussi à la faveur d'une prise de conscience évidente: cette tâche ''insensée et sacrilège'' allait fatalement m'éloigner de mes projets en cours pour un temps indéterminé. Indéterminé, car se lancer dans une pareille entreprise, c'est un peu ouvrir la boîte de Pandore. Cependant, je dois sincèrement préciser que ce sujet me rebutait également tant les mythes grecs ont toujours représenté pour moi une ''version hybride'' de l'histoire, une transcription inspirée de l'Égypte ancienne, de Babylonie, de Syrie ou encore de Mésopotamie.
Il s'agit ici d'un travail considérable sur les mythes fondateurs de la Grèce antique et sur notre propre connaissance d'un passé en miettes. Cette entreprise de déconstruction des mythes grecs, digne des Titans, possède également le mérite de rendre accessible un sujet bien souvent resté mystérieux par manque d'éléments comparatifs.
Le lecteur pourra-t-il résister à l'appel de cette gigantesque aventure de la pensée humaine ? Pour une recherche historique et mythologique de ce type, nous ne pourrions être mieux servis que par quelques acharnés et exaltés par une Foi inébranlable, dignes des plus grands héros de nos légendes. Ils sont peu nombreux et Satoshi Nasura en fait assurément partie.
