Les articles réunis dans ce recueil transdisciplinaire explorent les multiples formes et significations d'un thème envisagé selon ses liens étroits avec les mythes et le sacré. Ils composent ainsi un parcours se déployant à travers époques, cultures et croyances, reliées entre elles par un réseau serré de correspondances et d'échos, menant le lecteur du mythe d'Orphée au projet transhumaniste, tout en lui faisant entrevoir d'autres chemins de traverse à emprunter.

Dossier : Comment se définissent et se construisent les émotions en Grèce ancienne ? Comment sont elles instrumentalisées ? Différents types d’émotions (la douleur, l’amour, la jalousie, le dégoût, la haine, la colère, etc.), leur valeur, leur place et leurs fonctions sont analysés. Les auteurs se demandent si et en quoi, pour les Anciens, leur perception, leur description et leur compréhension, ainsi que leur pratique diffèrent des nôtres. Varia : Les articles proposés ensuite abordent des documents et des thématiques variés : ainsi l'archéologie des concours dits panhelléniques au début du ve siècle avant notre ère, la représentation de l'espace dans la céramique grecque et la signification des « grands yeux » dessinés sur certains vases, la scientia sexualis à partir du corpus Peri aphrodisiôn, et les rapports énigmatiques de Cornelius de Pauw avec la justice athénienne.

The messenger who reports important action that has occurred offstage is a familiar inhabitant of Greek tragedy. A messenger informs us about the death of Jocasta and the blinding of Oedipus, the madness of Heracles, the slaughter of Aigisthos, and the death of Hippolytus, among other important events. Despite its prevalence, this conventional figure remains only little understood. Combining several critical approaches-narrative theory, genre study, and rhetorical analysis-this lucid study develops a synthetic view of the messenger of Greek tragedy, showing how this role illuminates some of the genre's most persistent concerns, especially those relating to language, knowledge, and the workings of tragic theater itself. James Barrett gives close readings of several plays including Aeschylus's Persians, Sophocles' Electra and Oedipus Tyrannus, and Euripides' Bacchae and Rhesos. He traces the literary ancestry of the tragic messenger, showing that the messenger's narrative constitutes an unexplored site of engagement with Homeric epic, and that the role illuminates fifth-century b.c. experimentation with modes of speech. Breaking new ground in the study of Athenian tragedy, Barrett deepens our understanding of many central texts and of a form of theater that highlights the fragility and limits of human knowledge, a theme explored by its use of the messenger.

This book explores the reasons for the lasting freshness and modernity of Shakespeare's plays, while revising the standard history of English medieval and Renaissance drama. Robert Knapp argues that changes in the authority of English monarchs, in the differentiation and integration of English society, in the realization of human figures on stage, and in the understanding of signs helped produce scripts that still compel us to the act of interpretation.Originally published in 1989.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
