Abstract
En la comedia de Aristófanes Los acarnienses se presenta a Pseudartabas, un
embajador del Imperio aqueménida, que saluda a la Asamblea de los atenienses
con un verso en un texto incomprensible. Se han hecho varias interpretaciones
del pasaje sobre la hipótesis de que responde a un antiguo persa real y no a una
mera sucesión de sílabas que suenan a una lengua extranjera. El presente artículo
hace una nueva propuesta en el primer sentido, integrando el mensaje del saludo
de Pseudartabas con su segunda intervención, que constituye el contenido real de
la embajada persa.
In Aristophanes' Acharnians Pseudartabas, an ambassador of the Achaemenid Empire, who greets the Assembly of the Athenians with a verse in an incomprehensible text, is introduced. Several interpretations of the passage have been made on the hypothesis that it responds to a real Old Persian and not a mere succession of syllables that sound like a foreign language. This paper proposes a new interpretation, integrating the message of the Pseudartabas' first intervention with his second phrase, which constitutes the real content of the Persian embassy.
