The Law of God versus the Law of the State is displayed in amazing drama. Love, listening, and understanding, are shown to be superior to either argument. ( ) Using the Kitto translation. And obviously the rating is personal enjoyment rather than a critical judgment of ancient Greek plays, haha. The confrontations between Antigone and Creon are incredibly powerful and well written and still resonate. Creon's fixation on not giving into a *woman* specifically is fascinating especially as Antigone is of course totally right within play. Of course too Antigone is acting based on her responsibilities to a man, and it's only by her death that her actions can be acceptable, but still. Dramatically, the play feels like it burns out when Creon suddenly changes his mind for very vague reasons. His motivations through the play are obscure, despite being the driving force in a way Antigone can't be (Antigone is doing a brave thing, but in defence of tradition, Creon is the one who changes things). There's no reason given as to why he's so fixated on not burying one person, outside of him being (kind of) a traitor. It's just strange that a play held together by the force of his will suddenly abandons it right at the climax. Haemon to Creon: That is no state Which hangs on one man's will. The BBC podcast In Our Time was recently on Antigone so... This is an 1865 translation of Sophocles' Antigone by E. H. Plumptre into Shakespeareian English. I liked it, and the introduction and biographical material by J. Churton Collins (died 1908) are very good. I did wonder if perhaps I too should initialize my first name and be M. Lawrence Mitchell, but I don't think it would have worked in my field, at least not in this century.

Sofokles' tragedie Antigone, som opfortes forste gang i Athen for knap 2500 ar siden, har ikke siden ophort med at inspirere bade ved lAesning og opforelser. Tragedien er bearbejdet af talrige dramatikere og instruktorer og er stadig i sin problemstilling sa aktuel som ved sin forsteopforelse. Og ingen bearbejdelser er bedre end originalen. Problemet som tragedien behandler, er forholdet mellem statens berettigede krav om at loven holdes, og den enkeltes ret til at handle i overensstemmelse med sin samvittigheds bud. Denne konflikt kan ramme os alle, og har i sa fald ofte ingen anden losning end tragedie for alle. Men som al stor kunst i grunden er munter, er ogsa Sofokles' tragedie befriende ved at give, ikke en losning pa, men en tolkning og formulering af grundvilkar i menneskelivet. Den gor det lidt lettere at komme videre. Deri bestar dens rensende virkning, som Aristoteles et arhundrede efter dens fremkomst talte om. Otto Steen Dues oversAettelse er udarbejdet til opforelse, altsa i bevidstheden om at replikkerne skal kunne sta uden nogen form for noter. Dues gengivelse af Sofokles' mestervAerk er mundret Danishsk, og det stov som unAegtelig hviler over forgAengernes oversAettelser, er grundigt pustet vAek. Den vil utvivlsomt vAekke betydelig opmAerksomhed i den litterAere verden og i lighed med hans ovrige vAerker fa mange lAesere. No library descriptions found. |
