Abstract

SARAVIA DE GROSSI, María Inés. The voice of goddesses in Sophocles' Oedipus at Colonus. Argos [online]. 2010, vol.33, n.2, pp.99-113. ISSN 1853-6379.

This study is an examination of the multiple ways in which characters and chorus in the Oedipus at Colonus interpret and express their understanding of the will of Apollo and other divinities. The central argument is that the play exhibits a ring structure, with Prologue echoed precisely by Exodus. This interpretation entails a re-examination of the structural place of two kommoi at the end of the play.

Keywords : Sophocles; Oedipus at Colonus; Goddess; Ring composition; Kommoi.
