What can Cassandra’s visionary myth tell us today about how Should we face the future? Who could that Cassandra be today? predicted the victory of the enemy and that, as punishment, was despised and raped? What would happen if we placed Cassandra in our society of knowledge, running a bazaar of second-hand objects in a Berlin neighborhood?
