Title: | El agua primordial, entre el mito y la filosofía | Other Titles: | Primordial water, between myth and philosophy | Authors: | Bernabé, Alberto | Keywords: | primordial water;cosmogonies;archaic epic;orphic poems;presocratic philosophers;agua primordial;cosmogonías;épica arcaica;poemas órficos;filósofos presocráticos | Issue Date: | 2018 | Publisher: | Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra | Journal: | http://hdl.handle.net/10316.2/45094 | Abstract: | Water has been repeatedly considered as an element found at the origin of all things, and even as the matter from which all things are made. The aim of this paper is to review the oldest Greek accounts of the world’s origin that attribute a primordial role to water, so as to highlight the different ways in which the cosmogonical process is presented, and the great diversity of details that differentiate them. Mythical proposals from archaic poetry to orphic theogonies of the 2nd. cent. BCE, and philosophical proposals of the presocratic philosophers are analyzed. El agua ha sido reiteradamente considerado elemento que se encuentra en el origen de todo e incluso la materia de la que todo está constituido. El propósito del artículo es pasar revista a los relatos griegos más antiguos sobre el origen del mundo que le atribuyen al agua un papel primordial, para señalar las distintas formas en que se describe el proceso en que interviene y la gran diversidad de detalles que diferencian unos de otros. Se analizan las propuestas míticas desde la épica arcaica a las teogonías órficas del s. II a. C. y las filosóficas de los presocráticos. |
