A fin de aportar al estudio de la representación de la locura en el género trágico, el objetivo del presente artículo consiste en analizar la tragedia Orestes de Eurípides considerando las similitudes con dos tratados que forman parte del Corpus Hippocraticum. Los síntomas presentados por el héroe recuerdan aquellos descriptos en Sobre la enfermedad sagrada y Sobre las enfermedades de las vírgenes. Además de presentar una coincidencia léxica, los textos comparten ideas sobre el origen de la enfermedad y el tratamiento, cuyo estudio me permitirá desarrollar una nueva lectura del final de la tragedia.
