Many of the mythical variants concerning the clash between Laius and Oedipus assume the presence of a small escort following the king of Thebes. Among these characters the figure of a charioteer stands out and often proves himself to be the narrative pivot of the episode. So in this context it is particularly important to underline that this character is known traditionally with at least two different names (Polyphontes and Polypoetes), which refer to mythical and geographical areas of Thebes and Athens.

Abstract
Many of the mythical variants concerning the clash between Laius and Oedipus assume the presence of a small escort following the king of Thebes. Among these characters the figure of a charioteer stands out and often proves himself to be the narrative pivot of the episode. So in this context it is particularly important to underline that this character is known traditionally with at least two different names (Polyphontes and Polypoetes), which refer to mythical and geographical areas of Thebes and Athens.File in questo prodotto:
