GALLEGO, Julián. El coro de Suplicantes de Esquilo y la audiencia ateniense. Synthesis (La Plata) [online]. 2020, vol.27, n.1, pp.73-73. ISSN 0328-1205.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/1851779xe073.

The article analyzes the chorus of Aeschylus’ Suppliants in the context of the debates around the so-called “Vernant model”, assuming the possibility of continuing to apply that model without loosing sight of critical issues. The study starts from the leading role of the chorus and its relations with characters and ponders the conceivable repercussions that performance could generate on the audience considering the figure of Pelasgus as the one that operates on the involvement between the chorus and the public, weighing the political aspects that tragedy highlights, inherent to the institutional patterns of every Greek polis as well as to some specific characteristics of Athenian democracy.

Palabras clave : Aeschylus; Vernant; Danaids; Danaus; Pelasgus; Audience.
