Abstract

This text aims initially to raise some aspects related to the recognition (anagnórisis) between Electra and Orestes based on Aristotle´s Poetics; in a second momento, to reflect on the space where such scenes take place. The recognition scene between Electra and Orestes i provided to us by the three tragicians whose plays came completed to us: Aschylus (Choephronoi), Sophocles (Electra) and the homonymous tragedy by Euripides (Electra).
