| description | The bow of Philoctetes, as a symbolic and sacred object, has been studied many times. However, its importance as a sacred weapon deserves a revision regarding the religious and epic contexts of the author. According to the general view, this sacred quality comes from the divine provenience of the bow, which belonged to Heracles. Nevertheless, in some passages it could be best explained by the sacred significance that some objects had in certain religious contexts. |

However, its importance as a sacred weapon deserves a revision regarding the religious and epic contexts of the author. According to the general view, this sacred quality comes from the divine provenience of the bow, which belonged to Heracles. Nevertheless, in some passages it could be best explained by the sacred significance that some objects had in certain religious contexts. El arco de Filoctetes, como objeto simbólico importante y sagrado de la tragedia homónima de Sófocles, ha sido estudiado en numerosas ocasiones. A pesar de ello, su importancia como arma sagrada merece una revisión que atienda a los contextos religioso y épico de los que bebió Sófocles. Según la teoría tradicional, esta sacralidad deriva de la proveniencia divina del arco, que procede de Heracles. Con todo, en algunos pasajes podría explicarse mejor por la importancia que, en determinados contextos religiosos, adquirían ciertos objetos venerables que eran considerados también sagrados. 2019-10-29 2022-03-16T18:11:06Z 2022-03-16T18:11:06Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares https://www.synthesis.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/SYNe049 10.24215/1851779Xe049 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/27998 spa https://www.synthesis.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/SYNe049/11479 https://www.synthesis.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/SYNe049/11480 https://www.synthesis.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/SYNe049/11481 Derechos de autor 2019 Fernando Pérez Lambás text/html application/pdf application/epub+zip Universidad Nacional de La Plata.
