Book excerpt: Oedipus Rex, also known by its Greek title, Oedipus Tyrannus (Ancient Greek: Οἰδίπους Τύραννος, pronounced [oidípoːs týrannos]), or Oedipus the King, is an Athenian tragedy by Sophocles that was first performed around 429 BC.[1] Originally, to the ancient Greeks, the title was simply Oedipus (Οἰδίπους), as it is referred to by Aristotle in the Poetics. It is thought to have been renamed Oedipus Tyrannus to distinguish it from Oedipus at Colonus, a later play by Sophocles. In antiquity, the term "tyrant" referred to a ruler with no legitimate claim to rule, but it did not necessarily have a negative connotation.[2][3][4] Of Sophocles' three Theban plays that have survived, and that deal with the story of Oedipus, Oedipus Rex was the second to be written, following Antigone by about a dozen years. However, in terms of the chronology of events described by the plays, it comes first, followed by Oedipus at Colonus and then Antigone. Prior to the start of Oedipus Rex, Oedipus has become the king of Thebes while unwittingly fulfilling a prophecy that he would kill his father, Laius (the previous king), and marry his mother, Jocasta (whom Oedipus took as his queen after solving the riddle of the Sphinx). The action of Sophocles's play concerns Oedipus's search for the murderer of Laius in order to end a plague ravaging Thebes, unaware that the killer he is looking for is none other than himself. At the end of the play, after the truth finally comes to light, Jocasta hangs herself while Oedipus, horrified at his patricide and incest, proceeds to gouge out his own eyes in despair. In his Poetics, Aristotle refers several times to the play in order to exemplify aspects of the genre.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Available for the first time as an independent work, David Grene’s legendary translation of Oedipus the King renders Sophocles’ Greek into cogent, vivid, and poetic English for a new generation to savor. Over the years, Grene and Lattimore’s Complete Greek Tragedies have been the preferred choice of millions of readers—for personal libraries, individual study, and classroom use. This new, stand-alone edition of Sophocles’ searing tale of jealousy, rage, and revenge will continue the tradition of the University of Chicago Press’s classic series. Praise for David Grene and Richmond Lattimore’s Complete Greek Tragedies “This is it. No qualifications. Go out and buy it everybody.”—Kenneth Rexroth, Nation “The translations deliberately avoid the highly wrought and affectedly poetic; their idiom is contemporary. . . . They have life and speed and suppleness of phrase.”—Times Education Supplement

Book excerpt: To make Oedipus more accessible for the modern reader, our Prestwick House Literary Touchstone Edition? includes a glossary of the more difficult words, as well as convenient sidebar notes to enlighten the reader on aspects that may be confusing or overlooked. We hope that the reader may, through this edition, more fully enjoy the beauty of the verse, the wisdom of the insights, and the impact of the drama.Sophocles? Oedipus Rex has never been surpassed for the raw and terrible power with which its hero struggles to answer the eternal question, "Who am I?" The play, a story of a king who?acting entirely in ignorance?kills his father and marries his mother, unfolds with shattering power; we are helplessly carried along with Oedipus towards the final, horrific truth.This vibrant, new translation invites its readers to lose themselves in the unfolding of this tragic tale?as suspenseful as a detective mystery, yet with an outcome long ago determined by Fate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries the myth of Oedipus, the man who unwittingly killed his father and married his mother, has exerted a powerful hold on the human imagination; but no retelling of that myth has ever come close, in passion, drama, and menace to the one that we find in Sophocles' Oedipus the King. This new full-scale edition of that classic play - the first in any language since 1883 - offers a freshly constituted text based on consultation of manuscripts ancient and mediaeval. The Introduction explores the play's dating and production, its creative engagement with pre-Sophoclean versions, its major themes, and its reception during antiquity. The Commentary offers a detailed analysis, line by line and scene by scene, of the play's language, staging, and dramatic impact. The translation incorporated into the commentary ensures that the book will be accessible to all readers interested in what is arguably the greatest Greek tragedy of all.

This book was released on 2019-03-14 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le prologue de la pièce s'ouvre sur l'audience accordée par Oedipe, roi de Thèbes, à un prêtre et à son peuple venus le supplier de découvrir l'origine de la peste qui s'abat sur la ville. Oedipe est adoré de son peuple, car il a su vaincre la terrible sphinx ( ou sphinge) qui désolait la ville en posant aux voyageurs des énigmes insolubles et en les dévorant lorsqu'ils s'avéraient incapables de répondre. En triomphant de la sphinx, Oedipe a gagné le droit d'épouser la reine de la ville, Jocaste, et de monter sur le trône, remplaçant ainsi l'ancien roi et époux de Jocaste, Laïos, mort dans des circonstances mal connues. Pour les suppliants, Oedipe est le seul à pouvoir faire toute la lumière sur le fléau qui ravage la ville. Mais Oedipe avait prévenu la demande du prêtre et envoyé son beau-frère, Créon, se renseigner auprès de l'oracle de Delphes. À son retour, Créon explique que le dieu Apollon est courroucé par la mort de Laïos, qui n'a pas été élucidée et dont le meurtrier court toujours. Oedipe se déclare prêt à aller jusqu'au bout afin de découvrir la vérité et de châtier le coupable. Suit la parodos, l'entrée du choeur tragique, qui déplore le fléau qui frappe Thèbes.

This book was released on 2024-06-13 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on the works of Camillo Sbarbaro and Giovanna Bemporad, this book offers the first in-depth analysis of poetic translations of Greek tragedy in 20th-century Italian poetry. The close examination of the linguistic and ideological diversity embedded in these authors' works shows how narratives of Greek tragedy shaped their poetic universe, and how their work influenced the Greek paradigm in return. The reader is presented with a textual analysis of Sbarbaro's and Bemporad's translations, as well as a discussion of larger cultural patterns. This volume provides a fresh perspective on the pedagogical commitment of the Italian poets and their roles as translators of classical studies. The web of relationships and historical context in which these authors are placed provide an understanding of their importance for a wider discourse on translation in Italy and Europe in the 1940s. Caterina Paoli's original analysis of Sbarbaro's and Bemporad's poetic translations and her emphasis on their relevance for translation studies, women's writing and classical reception, fills a significant gap in current scholarship on the translation of ancient literature in the Italian poetic community.

Book excerpt: Cette tragédie met en scène la découverte par Œdipe de son terrible destin. Alors qu'il avait accédé au trône de Thèbes après avoir triomphé de l'énigme du Sphinx, l'enquête qu'il mène afin de découvrir la cause de la peste envoyée par Apollon sur la ville le conduit à découvrir que le responsable de l'épidémie n'est autre que lui-même : il est coupable à la fois de parricide et d'inceste, car il a, sans le savoir, tué son propre père, Laïos, et épousé sa propre mère, Jocaste. Œdipe-Roi est l'une des plus célèbres tragédies de Sophocle. Elle a connu une postérité inouïe, inspirant nombre de dramaturges et d'artistes et suscitant de nombreuses interprétations, allant de l’étude mythologique à la psychanalyse en passant par l’adaptation cinématographique. Cette pièce, écrite au Ve siècle av. J.-C., est proposée ici dans une traduction moderne de référence, celle de Paul Masqueray, publiée aux Belles Lettres en 1922.
