description Among the numerous references that we find in Euripides' tragedies to the hymenaios, we will try to understand their literary meaning in two of his works: the hymenaios remembered by the women who form the choir of Iphigenia in Tauris and those of The Trojan Women: the past and future hymenaios Hecuba talks about, as well as the imminent hymenaios that Casandra executes in advance, putting into work her mother's foresight. Many of the values of these celebrations have to do with the traditional rite of marriage and have often been analyzed from this historical perspective. However, we will try to show that the poet uses them with a new, literary value, mainly ironic or contrasting.

Entre las numerosas referencias que encontramos en las tragedias de Eurípides a los himeneos, intentaremos profundizar su significado literario en dos de sus obras: los himeneos recordados por las mujeres que forman el coro de Ifigenia en Táuride y los de Troyanas: los himeneos pasados y futuros de los que habla Hécuba, así como el himeneo inminente que Casandra ejecuta por anticipado, poniendo en obra la previsión de su madre. Muchos de los valores de estas celebraciones tienen que ver con el rito tradicional del matrimonio y frecuentemente han sido analizados desde esta perspectiva histórica. Sin embargo, intentaremos demostrar que el poeta los utiliza con un valor nuevo, literario, principalmente irónico o de contraste. 2021-07-01 2022-03-16T18:11:12Z 2022-03-16T18:11:12Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Texto https://www.synthesis.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/syne100 10.24215/1851779Xe100 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/28062 spa https://www.synthesis.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/syne100/14617 https://www.synthesis.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/syne100/14610 https://www.synthesis.fahce.unlp.edu.ar/article/view/syne100/14615 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/deed.es text/html application/pdf application/epub+zip Universidad Nacional de La Plata.
