Resumen
ALVAREZ, Lucas Manuel. Visibility, Corporality and Public Space in the Gorgias’ Speeches. Prax. filos. [online]. 2020, n.50, pp.41-64. ISSN 0120-4688. https://doi.org/10.25100/pfilosofica.v0i50.8665.
This paper highlights some significant topics in Gorgias’ thought that have been overlooked by other interpreters: visibility and corporality. According to the sophist, these seem to have effects within the framework of a public space as powerful as those of discourse. Specifically, I research the role played by these dimensions in two of Gorgias’ works,Defense of PalamedesandEncomium of Helen. In both these works, corporality and visibility are decisive arguments demonstrating Palamades' innocence and exonerating Helen, respectively.
