Los síntomas presentados por el héroe recuerdan aquellos descriptos en Sobre la enfermedad sagrada y Sobre las enfermedades de las vírgenes. Además de presentar una coincidencia léxica, los textos comparten ideas sobre el origen de la enfermedad y el tratamiento, cuyo estudio me permitirá desarrollar una nueva lectura del final de la tragedia.  application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/afc/article/view/5953 10.34096/afc.v2i30.5953 spa Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/afc/article/view/5953/5285 Anales de Filología Clásica; Vol. 2 Núm. 30 (2017); 111-127 2362-4841 0325-1721 tragedy Hippocratic medicine woman Euripides Orestes tragedia medicina hipocrática mujer Eurípides Orestes The disease of the hero in Euripides' Orestes in the light of the relationship between tragedy and Hippocratic medicine La enfermedad del héroe en Orestes de Eurípides a la luz de la relación entre tragedia y medicina hipocrática info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=anafilog&d=5953_oai
