It presents a major contribution not only to Sophoclean criticism but to dramatic criticism as a whole. For the first time, the methods of contemporary narrative theory are thoroughly applied to the text of a single major play. Sophocles' Oedipus at Colonus is presented as a uniquely rich text, which deftly uses the figure and history of the blind Oedipus to explore and thematize some of the basic narratological concerns of Greek tragedy: the relation between the narrow here-and-now of visible stage action and the many off-stage worlds that have to be mediated into it through narrative, including the past, the future, other dramatizations of the myth, and the world of the fifth-century audience.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"de Gruyter","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45542133989527,"sku":"9783110174014","price":16122.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783110174014.webp?v=1767464192","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/tragic-narrative-a-narratological-study-of-sophocles-oedipus-at-colonus-9783110174014","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
