Abstract

FERNANDEZ DEAGUSTINI, María del Pilar. ¿Dónde debo cantar? Autoridad, espacio y voz coral en Siete contra Tebas. Circe clás. mod. [online]. 2023, vol.27, n.1, pp.13-30. ISSN 1851-1724.  http://dx.doi.org/https://dx.doi.org/10.19137/circe-2023-270101.

The article aims to demonstrate that the spatial syntax of the scene between Eteocles and the chorus (vv. 78-368), crossed by the lament genre, constitutes a powerful, dynamic and programmatic mechanism to involve and guide the audience in relation to the action that unfolds, in a process that depends on the power of theater as a spectacle. It is argued that, in Seven against Thebes, the character -individual or collective- who rules over the space is the one who has power. In the studied scene, the taking of the space and the license to move in it are installed as a fundamental issue.

Keywords : Aeschylus; Seven against Thebes; Chorus; Space; Authority.
