Hercules ; Trojan Women ; Phoenician Women ; Media ; PhaedraHarvard University Press, 2002 - 551 páginas "Seneca's plots are based on mythical episodes, in keeping with classical tradition. But the political realities of imperial Rome are also reflected here, in an obsessive concern with power and dominion over others. Seneca's plays depict gigantic passions and intense interactions in an appropriately forceful rhetoric. Their perspective is much bleaker and more tragic than that of his prose writings. |
