This wide-ranging and unique collection of documents on one of the
most enduring of literary genres, Tragedy, offers a radical
revaluation of its significance in the light of the critical
attention that it has received during the past one-hundred and
fifty years. The foundations of much contemporary thinking about
Tragedy are to be found in the writings of Hegel, Nietzsche, and
Kierkegaard; in addition, the dialectical tradition emanating from
Marxism, and the psycho-analytical writings of Freud, have extended
significantly the horizons of the subject. With the explosion of
interest in the areas of post-structuralism, sociology of culture,
social anthropology, feminism, deconstruction, and the study of
ritual, new questions are being asked about this persistent
artistic exploration of human experience. This book seeks to
represent a full selection of these divergent interests, in a
series of substantial extracts which display the continuing
richness of the debate about a genre which has provoked, and
challenged categorical discussion since the appearance of
Aristotle's Poetics.
