reine de Saba

Summary

Dominique Pagani mentions the Queen of Sheba several times between 2015 and 2021. He almost always comes back to her through the same image: the hoopoe messenger that goes ahead of her to Solomon and speaks to the king1. In 2020, he specifies that the bird escapes from the queen's retinue to go out to meet Solomon2. In 2021, he speaks of birds led by the hoopoe, which she sends to Solomon3. In 2018, in the sessions devoted to Nerval's Angélique, he links this motif to the Voyage en Orient4. He also dwells on the place she occupies in a triangle. In 2016, he puts her in the place of the king's wife5. In 2017, in a session on Marcel Griaule, he makes her the stake of the triangle between Solomon and Adoniram. In 2018, he describes her as in love with the blacksmith6. These mentions remain brief and occur in sessions on a range of subjects.
