In looking at how the acts of violence and tortured kinship relations are depicted in the work of all three major Greek tragic playwrights?Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides?the contributors shed light on the workings and failings of the Greek polis, and explore the means by which sexual difference and the city take shape in relation to each other. The volume complements and expands the efforts of current feminist interpretations of Antigone and the Oresteia by considering the meanings of tragedy for ancient Athenian audiences while also unveiling the reverberations of Greek tragedy's formulations and dilemmas in modern political life and for contemporary political philosophy. 606 $aGreek drama (Tragedy)$xHistory and criticism 606 $aGender identity in literature 606 $aGender identity$zGreece 606 $aLiterature and society$zGreece 606 $aCity-states$zGreece 615 0$aGreek drama (Tragedy)$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aGender identity in literature. 615 0$aGender identity 615 0$aLiterature and society 615 0$aCity-states 676 $a882/.0109353 701 $aMcCoskey$b Denise Eileen$f1968-$01601362 701 $aZakin$b Emily$01601363 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811024803321 996 $aBound by the city$93924941 997 $aUNINA
