Abstract
In Soph. OT 353 the subjective meaning of ὡς ὄντι gives an ironic sense to Teiresias’ words, which makes Oedipus’ angry reaction psychologically understandable. The dative ὄντι highlights the loneliness of the protagonist: not only must he not speak to anyone else, but also no-one else must speak to him.File in questo prodotto:
