MEDDA, Enrico  y  TADDEI, Andrea. Quando il rito inganna: azioni rituali e mechanaí in Euripide (El., IT., Hel.)*. Synthesis (La Plata) [online]. 2021, vol.28, n.1, e098. ISSN 0328-1205.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/1851779xe098.

The article deals with three euripidean passages (from Electra, Iphigenia among the Taurians and Helen) in which the enactment of ritual actions (such as the admission of a newborn child to the familial group, the celebration of a funerary rite, the purification of a murderer) works as a deceiving or misleading resource. In such circumstances rites play a major dramatic role in creating a complicity between the author, the audience and the characters acting on scene.

Palabras clave : Rite; Euripides; Deception; Electra; Iphigenia among the Taurians; Helen.
