Abstract

Areopagos mahkemesinde, Orestes’in davasına bakan yargıçlar oylarını sessizce kullandıkları halde, Athena oyunu Orestes’ten yana kullanacağını beyan eder. Fakat Oresteia’nın doruk noktası olan bu oylama, özellikle de Athena’nın kullandığı oyun doğası ve oy kullanan yargıçların sayısı tartışmalıdır. Orestes, Athena’nın müdahalesiyle mi aklandı? Athena tek sayıda üyeden oluşan bir jüri mi, yoksa çift sayıda üyeden kurulmuş bir jüri mi yetkilendirmişti? Çoğu filoloğa göre Orestes, Eumenidler’de Athena’nın oyu ile beraat etmiştir. Bu makalede, Athena’nın oyunun aslında sembolik olup, eşit çıkan oylara dahil olmadığı tezi savunulacaktır. Orestes, Athena’nın müdahalesiyle değil insanların oylarıyla suçsuz bulunmuştur. Antik yazarların bu konudaki ifadelerine kabaca değinildikten sonra, Athena’nın oyunun da eşit sayıdaki oyların arasında bulunduğunu savunan görüşün temel argümanlarına itiraz edilecektir. Çalışmamızda, Athena’nın kullandığı oyun jürinin almış olduğu karara dair kendi kanaatini ifade etmenin bir yolu olarak anlaşılması gerektiği gösterilmeye çalışılacaktır. Athena, “oyum Orestes’ten yana” derken, aslında jürinin aldığı kararı desteklediğini ifade etmekte, jüri üyelerinin verdiği hükmün bağlayıcı olduğunu vurgulamaktadır.
