Guilt by Descent: Moral Inheritance and Decision Making in Greek Tragedy: Oxford Classical Monographs

Autor N. J. Sewell-Rutter
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 oct 2007
Blighted and accursed families are an inescapable feature of Greek tragedy, and many scholars have treated questions of inherited guilt, curses, and divine causation. N.J. Sewell-Rutter gives these familiar issues a fresh appraisal, arguing that tragedy is a medium that fuses the conceptual with the provoking and exciting of emotion, neither of which can be ignored if the texts are to be fully understood. He pays particular attention to Aeschylus' Seven against Thebes and the Phoenician Women of Euripides, both of which dramatize the sorrows of the later generations of the House of Oedipus, but in very different, and perhaps complementary, ways. All Greek quotations are translated, making his study thoroughly accessible to the non-specialist reader.

Recenzii

a persuasive and sensible study of an important topic
the book is clearly written and will doubtless be a useful volume to recommend to undergraduates
...stimulating and successful...The author's approach to the texts is sound and his arguments lucidly developed.
...a relevant contribution to the studies on tragic concepts about moral inheritance, and will be useful both to students of Greek tragedy and to scholars interested in broader religious and philosophic questions.
