Troiane classiche e contemporanee

A cura di Francesco Citti, Alessandro Iannucci e Antonio Ziosi. Seminario interdisciplinare sulle Troiane.

"The Trojan Women/Troades" by Euripides and by Seneca stage the tragedy of war and its aftermath from the perspective of its victims. The 15 essays - 13 in italian, two in english - in this volume analyse different literary aspects of the two plays and explore pivotal moments in their reception and their critical assessment. They range from the rediscovery of tragic forms in the European Renaissance to modern and contemporary art, from cinema to contemporary theatre performances, even up to textual analysis in the light of Trauma Studies theory.
