PERCZYK*, Cecilia J.. Amigos son los amigos: Pílades y el coro de argivas en Orestes de Eurípides. Synthesis (La Plata) [online]. 2019, vol.26, n.1, pp.50-50. ISSN 0328-1205.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/1851779xe050.

In the present work, I propose to study the relations of philía in Euripides’ Orestes, focusing on the gender of the characters. First, I will analyze the link between the protagonist and Pilades, who does not fear the contact with Orestes and manages to avoid suicide. This is a remarkable difference regarding the actions of Menelaus, a blood relative of the sons of Agamemnon, who seems to arrive in Argos to save his nephews, but finally conspires against them. Then I will approach Electra’s relationship with the chorus, standing out from the formal point of view since the parodos and the third stasimon constitute lyrical dialogues. The comparison between the interaction of the Argives and the model of Pilades and Orestes will allow investigating the incidence of women in the plot.

Palabras clave : Friendship; Tragedy; Euripides; Orestes.
