Galatea (/ˌɡæləˈtiːə/; Greek: Γαλάτεια; "she who is milk-white") is a name popularly applied to the statue carved of ivory by Pygmalion of Cyprus, which then came to life in Greek mythology. In modern English, the name usually alludes to that story. Galatea is also the name of Polyphemus's object of desire in Theocritus's Idylls VI and XI and is linked with Polyphemus again in the myth of Acis and Galatea in Ovid's Metamorphoses. Galatea is mentioned in Book XVIII of The Iliad: "Bright Galatea quits her pearly bed".

  • Galatea è il nome dato nel XVIII secolo alla statua del mito di Pigmalione. Il mito ha origine dal racconto di Pigmalione ampiamente rappresentato nell'arte e diffuso attraverso i secoli. In un'epoca imprecisata, probabilmente nel XVIII secolo, la statua del mito ha assunto il nome di Galatea, dal nome della ninfa marina Galatea. A riprova del fatto che tale nome abbia un'origine più recente rispetto alla statua umanizzata del mito, Goethe la chiama Elisa, basandosi sulle varianti della storia di Didone ed Elisa. (it)
