The tragedies, influential throughout the Roman world well beyond Seneca's time, plunge into obscurity in Late Antiquity and nearly disappear during the Middle Ages. Profound consequences follow from the rediscovery of a dusty manuscript containing nine plays attributed to Seneca: it is seminal to both the renaissance of tragedy and the birth of Humanism. Canonical Western writers from Antiquity to the present have revisited, transformed, and eviscerated Senecan precedents to develop, in Dodson-Robinson's words, \'competing tragic visions of agency and the human place in the universe.\'Brill's Companions to Classical Reception5.Latin drama (Tragedy)History and criticismElectronic books.Latin drama (Tragedy)History and criticism.872/.01Dodson-Robinson EricMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465864303321Brill's companion to the reception of Senecan tragedy1759845UNINA
