Abstract

The main purpose of this article is to insert the classic tragic art of the Greeks in a fundamental existential condition before their future metaphysical horizon. The vectors to be explored for this aim rest on the elements of human freedom and divine will inserted in a conflictual relationship. This tension will be fostered, on the one hand, by the divine's refusal to let himself be apprehended in its totality and, on the other hand, by the impositive character that the mortal is responsible for his actions even when the foundation and the resultant of them exceed its essentially precarious constitution.
