Popis: The purpose of the article is a rereading of Sophocles’ Tereus in the light of literary and iconographic sources preceding it. The article highlights Itis’ infanticide in a new and original way with respect to previous authors who dealt with the myth of the Pandionidae. He establishes a causal sequence between the violence suffered by Philomela and the killing of Procne’s son, conceived by the two sisters as a revenge against Tereus, who is guilty of raping and cutting off his sister-in-law’s tongue.
