A fantastic world full of mysteries and morals, and drawing its deep roots in many literary works and movies, ranging from the mythical “Ovid’s Metamorphoses” (10), to the existentialist “The Metamorphosis” of Kafka (1915) which is a major reference book , in addition to classical works that carry both public and students to a historical legendary world.
