Extrait du document
(Loto phagi) Greek In Homer's
Odyssey, people who lived on the fruit or the roots of
the lotus plant. The food made them forget their pasts,
their families, and their futures, so that they lived in
a state of dreamy bliss. Odysseus and his crew made
landfall in the land of the Lotus-Eaters on their way
home to Ithaca. Several of the crew became addicted
to the food of the lotus plant. They had to be dragged
back to the ship by force.
"Lotus Land" was probably Libya (2), in North
Africa.
