BÓSTWA I DEMONY KOBIECE W TRAGEDII GRECKIEJ
Journal Title: Collectanea Philologica - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
The article focuses on female deities and demons appearing in ancient Greek tragedy. At the beginning the classification of female deities and demons is made followed by description of its two categories. The first category consists of deus ex machina characters exemplified by Athena from Iphigenia in Tauris by Euripides. The second is depicted in the image of Erynies that appear both in the action (Aeschylus’ Eumenides) and in commentaries (Euripides’ Iphigenia in Tauris).
