Heard and unheard strophes in the parodos of Aeschylus' Seven against ThebesKeywords: Aeschylus , Aischylos , Greek , tragedy , metrics , semantics Abstract: In this paper I would like to suggest a metrical interpretation of the parodos of the Theban girls in Aeschylus' Seven against Thebes. I shall begin with the metrical part, then I should like to take a closer look at the semantic impact of this interpretation and, instead of a conclusion, show how this proposal would fit into the whole context of the play.
