From Rancière’s theory on the distribution of the sensible (2009), is established in this essay a relationship between desire and death in three Latin American plays based on classic tragedy. In order of premieres, they are: La viuda de Apablaza, 1928, in Chile (Phaedra), by Germán Luco Cruchaga, Antigona Vélez, 1952, by Leopoldo Marechal, in Argentina (Antigone) and Klássico (com k), 2013, by Mayombe Grupo de Teatro, in Brazil (Medea). According to Rancière, “what we call image is an element within a device that creates a sense of reality, some common sense” (El espectador emancipado, p. 104). The three heroines present characters configured by the subversive tension between desire and death. Their images acquire peculiarities, specific ways of reality according to each of the “devices” in which they find themselves. It is intended to discuss the issue of women’s death as restitution of the lost order, which is present in the tragedies of Sophocles and Euripides, in the studied updates.
