Tragedies

Valutazione del libro

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the unique structure of Senecan tragedies, this collection showcases a distinct style that contrasts with traditional Greek drama. Characterized by brevity and a lack of catharsis, these plays feature on-stage violence and often delve into themes of the macabre and supernatural. Seneca's influential works not only survived through the ages but also inspired major playwrights of the Elizabethan and Jacobean eras, such as Shakespeare and Kyd. This edition includes all ten tragedies attributed to Seneca, translated by Ella Isabel Harris, and is printed on premium acid-free paper.
