The Theban Plays are some of the best literature ever written. I wrote a 5000 on them this term and don't think I've ever been more intellectually stimulated by my degree
I've read Oedipus the King and Antigone. I think I preferred Antigone. Ancient Greek literature is great. I think I liked Euripides better, but we only read Medea. Old Comedy is also really fun, we read Lysistrata. I get the impression it's all better in the Greek, but I was never able to take Greek to a high enough level to read any of it. I can only imagine how comparatively rubbish Cicero would have seemed if I'd only read an English translation of the Verrines; it must be the same with Greek literature. I should try to learn more Greek so I can read Herodotus in Greek, I love the Histories.
Remember, you must always pronounce his name "sofoccels" or people will laugh at you.
i play some, i was so mcuh into tragedia when i was younger, after that really into tragedia remixes from french writers as Giraudoux, Cocteau, Anouilh etc...
I don't know, it just never interested me when I've learned about it. So I know more than any average American girl should know about the Spanish Civil War, and less-than-average about Ancient Greece
And he used to make me pray, wearing a mask like a death's head. When he put me there in the back seat, and he said, "Jesus save me, Jesus save me."
Well, they took me in and shod my feet, and taught me prayers for chastity And said my name would be Colleen. And I was blessed among all women To have forgotten everything.
Sophocles > Euripides for me anyday; Medea is quite good and The Bacchae is fantastic but Sophocles has the power of expressing the paradox of human experience in the most beautiful way. Also yes Jordan the classical comedies are way good, I especially love Aristophanes like The Frogs and of course The Satyricon. Juvenal also has his moments.
I just finished Slaughterhouse 5 which was absolutely brilliant, and am now reading The Unbearable Lightness of Being which I am enjoying hugely.
