Descrizione
This volume collects the contributions presented and discussed in the international conference Staging Ajaxs Suicide held at the Scuola Normale Superiore on 7-9 November 2013. The contributors consider in an interdisciplinary fashion the vexed problem of Ajaxs suicide in Sophocles tragedy, exploring various interconnected aspects: philological and textual criticism of individual problems; literary analysis of parts and the whole of the play; dramaturgical examination of its staging, with the difficulties involved and possible solutions proposed hitherto and now; analysis of the literary, exegetical, and iconographical sources for Ajaxs suicide; and analysis of Sophocles literary technique and plotting.
