Der Sammelband untersucht zentrale rhetorische Elemente in antiken Tragodien und beleuchtet die Mytheninterpretation in der griechischen Tragodie aus neuen Perspektiven.
Wie lasst sich die attische Tragodie neu lesen, wenn man sie als Ort rhetorischer Auseinandersetzung mit dem uberlieferten Mythenrepertoire versteht? Dieser Band zeigt, wie griechische Tragodien nicht nur mythische Stoffe inszenieren, sondern sich gleichzeitig mit bestehenden Deutungen auseinandersetzen – argumentierend, kommentierend und umdeutend. Die Tragodie wird so zu einem rhetorischen Medium, in dem Mythos als Argument verhandelt wird. Der englischsprachige Sammelband untersucht zentrale rhetorische Elemente in antiken Tragodien und beleuchtet die Mytheninterpretation in der griechischen Tragodie aus neuen Perspektiven. Neben klassischen philologischen Zugangen kommen auch moderne literaturwissenschaftliche, rhetorikanalytische und kulturwissenschaftliche Methoden zum Einsatz.
