Abstract

ZULUAGA, Andrés Felipe. The judicial and the narrative identity in The Oresteia. An interpretation from Ricoeur. discus.filos [online]. 2020, vol.21, n.36, pp.123-140.  Epub Dec 15, 2020. ISSN 0124-6127.  https://doi.org/10.17151/difil.2020.21.36.8.

This paper aims to interpret the Oresteia from the perspective of the narrative identity, to sustain that the judicial process in the case of Orestes is definitive for the configuration of its identity. The foregoing goes beyond the traditional interpretations of the aforementioned work by Aeschylus and focuses on the suffering man who receives the sentence. To achieve the purpose of this paper, the philosophical hermeneutics of Ricoeur, and the concepts of sameness, selfhood and narrative identity are used.

Keywords : Narrative identity; tragic case; judicial; Ricoeur; The Oresteia.
