| Sumario: | In Juicio a una zorra de Miguel del Arco, Helen of Troy becomes independent of her original legend and acquires her own identity. Thus, this traditionally auxiliary character becomes the protagonist of this fable and presents her version of the story. The article analyzes the construction of Helen's character in this dramatic play, both in form and content, as well as other thematic aspects and questions regarding the play’s reception in Spain and Argentina, countries where it has been performed, reflecting on some of the criticisms it received and particularly considering the reconfigurations of the character related to its adaptation to a new time. |
