    Moral Inheritance and Decision Making in Greek Tragedy

    par N. J. Sewell-Rutter ...

  • Euripidean Drama

    Myth, Theme and Structure

    par Desmond Conacher ...
    Collections series Heritage
    It is a commonly held view among historians of Greek literature that with the advent of Euripides the tragic structure, even the tragic outlook of Greek drama suffered a breakdown from which it never recovered.

This alienation from others also entails a decomposition of the integrity of the individual, which is often seen in tragedy's uncertainty about the protagonists' autonomy: do they ... En savoir plus
