Abstract
The present article aims at analyzing the animalization mechanisms of Polyxena in Euripides' Hecuba. From a lexical work, it is a question of studying the animal references around the above mentioned personage as well as also a semantic field tied to the captivity situation (that of pillage and hunting). We try thus to analyze the mirror game produced by the text among some mechanisms of animalization based on sacrificial victims (Polyxena) and other where an inversion is operated in the victim/killer couple but from an homologous process of animalization (Hecuba).
