RODRIGUEZ MALDONADO, Marysol Alhim. Presence of the Homeric Hero in the François Vase. An. Inst. Investig. Estét [online]. 2017, vol.39, n.110, pp.77-120. ISSN 0185-1276.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iie.18703062e.2017.1.2591.

Based on the cultural identity theory in art or art theory as a cultural system, the article presents a mythical-literary analysis of multiple and thematically related scenes depicted on the complex and controversial François Vase. In it, it is suggested that they should be studied as a "whole" and in relation to the form of the piece upon which they were painted, and not as isolated myths, the argument being that the vase in question has a preconceived iconographic and formal unity, whose paradigm or thread is the Homeric hero and the most significant themes related to him.

Palabras llave : François Vase; Greek pottery; Homeric hero; cultural identity theory; mythical literary analysis; iconographic and formal analysis; interpretative approach.
