Four Dramas Of Maturity written by Sophocles and has been published by Tuttle Publishing this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1999 with Ajax (Greek mythology) categories.
This volume contains Sophocles first four surviving tragedies. Aias dramatizes the consequences of its hero's terrible delusion, when the goddess Athena sends Aias mad and he slaughters sheep and cattle, rather than his enemies. Antigone presents the disastrous conflict between Antigone's determination to bury her brother Polyneikes, and the new ruler Kreon's edict that he is an enemy of the state and, as such, does not deserve burial. In Young Women of Trachis, Herakles' gentle wife Deianeria cannot accept her husband's mistres Iole into their home, but her attempt to rescue their marriage destroys them both. Oedipus the King is a pitiless reminder of the limits of human knowledge. Oedipus' quest to relieve his city from a plague leads him to the horrific discovery that he has murdered his own father and married his mother. This study edition contains both the texts and commentary upon them.

In power, passion, and the brilliant display of moral conflict, the drama of ancient Greece remains unsurpassed. For this volume, Professor Hadas chose nine plays which display the diversity and grandeur of tragedy, and the critical and satiric genius of comedy, in outstanding translations of the past and present. His introduction explores the religious origins, modes of productions, structure, and conventions of the Greek theater, individual prefaces illuminate each play and clarify the author's place in the continuity of Greek drama.

Tracing the history of tragedy and comedy from their earliest beginnings to the present, this book offers readers an exceptional study of the development of both genres, grounded in analysis of landmark plays and their context. It argues that sacrifice is central to both genres, and demonstrates how it provides a key to understanding the grand sweep of Western drama. For students of literature and drama the volume serves as an accessible companion to over two millennia of drama organised by period, and reveals how sacrifice represents a through-line running from classical drama to today's reality TV and blockbuster movies. Across the chapters devoted to each period, Day explores how the meanings of sacrifice change over time, but never quite disappear. He charts the influences of religion, social change and politics on the status and purposes of theatre in each period, and on the drama itself. But it is through a close study of key plays that he reveals the continuities centred around sacrifice that persist and which illuminate aspects of human psychology and social organisation. Among the many plays and events considered are Aeschylus' trilogy The Oresteia, Aristophanes' Women at the Thesmorphia, Menander's The Bad-Tempered Man, the spectacles of the Roman Games, Seneca's The Trojan Women, Plautus's The Rope, the Cycle plays and Everyman from the Middle Ages, Shakespeare's King Lear and A Midsummer Night's Dream, Middleton's The Revenger's Tragedy, Jonson's Every Man in His Humour, Thomas Otway's The Orphan, William Wycherley's The Country Wife, Wilde's A Woman of No Importance, Beckett' Waiting for Godot, Tennessee Williams's A Streetcar Named Desire, Suzan-Lori Parks's Topdog/Underdog, Sarah Kane's Blasted and Charlotte Jones' Humble Boy. A conclusion examines the persistence of ideas of sacrifice in today's reality TV and blockbuster movies.
