GARCIA PEREZ, David. La cosmología y sus elementos en Prometeo encadenado. Synthesis (La Plata) [online]. 2018, vol.25, n.1, pp.9-10. ISSN 0328-1205.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/1851779xe031.

This article explores some ideas of pre-socratic thought present in Aeschylus’ plays, especially those concerning cosmology and its elements. The idea of the Aeschylus dramaturgy, in particular Prometheus vinctus, as a nexus between both pre-Socratic and the political and philosophical thought at the Fifth Century, is developed in this article. If we accept that this tragedy was written by Aeschylus (cf. Solmsen, 1995: X; Saïd, 1985: 9-12; Conacher, 1980: 141-174), so that the drama is manifested as a space in which the confrontation of two modes of thinking cosmology results in an original understanding of the tragic and the becoming of the cosmos.

Palabras clave : Aeschylus; Cosmology; Elements; Pre-socratic thought; Prometheus.
