Apollo must leave the stage sometime after line 753 in the Eumenides, but the question of when exactly he does so is perplexing. A simple solution proposed but rejected by O. Taplin assigns lines 775-777, transmitted as the last three lines of Orestes' speech, to Apollo. Orestes' speech of gratitude is followed by a speech of farewell by Apollo. Once Apollo has said goodbye, Orestes and he can leave together.

Apollo must leave the stage sometime after line 753 in the Eumenides, but the question of when exactly he does so is perplexing. A simple solution proposed but rejected by O. Taplin assigns lines 775-777, transmitted as the last three lines of Orestes' speech, to Apollo. Orestes' speech of gratitude is followed by a speech of farewell by Apollo. Once Apollo has said goodbye, Orestes and he can leave together.File in questo prodotto:
