Riuso ed evoluzione della τις-Rede in Euripide
Abstract
This essay analyses how Euripides reused the epic pattern of the so-called τις-Rede or tis-speech, used by Homer sometimes to make a character speculate about what someone might say, other times to give a single and anonymous example of a crowd’s opinion. Euripides uses both the traditional epic models in his tragedies: potential τις-Reden (Alc. 954‑61, 995‑1005; Her. 26‑30, 515‑19; Pho. 578‑83; fr. 708 K.) and actual τις-Reden (Andr. 1104‑6; Hel. 1589‑91; HF 950‑2). The quoted passages are all studied, together with some other passages mentioned for comparison purposes (Ba. 204‑5; Hec. 313‑16; HF 1286‑90; IT 1358‑61; Or. 1416‑24; Suppl. 314‑16, 343‑6).
