NAPOLI, Juan Tobías. Himeneos pasados y futuros: Ifigenia en Táuride y Troyanas de Eurípides. Synthesis (La Plata) [online]. 2021, vol.28, n.1, e100. ISSN 0328-1205.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/1851779xe100.

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.

Palabras clave : Euripides; Hymenaeus; Rite; Trojans; Iphigenia in Tauride.
