Abstract:

In this paper I examine the role of tragedy in the ancient emergence of philosophical interiority and in the recent return of exteriority that marks the birth of theory. I argue that tragedy names a kind of epistemic threshold between systems of knowledge predicated on exteriority and interiority. I conclude by arguing that Derrida's late effort to articulate a messianic model of the tragic in Specters of Marx and elsewhere, his effort to “think the ghost,” both confirms and complicates tragedy's place in the history of theory.

Resumen El psicoanálisis es a menudo confundido en sus pretensiones y objetivos. Con el propósito de adelantar un ejercicio de claridad respecto al proceder de la disciplina freudiana y sus conceptos “bastardos”, se propone una formalización del concepto de tragedia desde el corpus teórico psicoanalítico. Para el cumplimiento de este objetivo se revisan, a la luz de la teoría, los textos que refieren a la tragedia como su tema principal. Pronto se hace manifiesto que el concepto psicoanalítico de tragedia atraviesa transversalmente la obra freudiana y permite una revisión y utilización de su a

Abstract:

Hegel’s aesthetic theory of tragedy is divided into three parts: occurrence, development and resolution, in which the root cause of tragedy is conflict, the way of tragedy development is struggle, and the result of tragedy resolution is reconciliation. The ancient Chinese novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms contains conflicting loyalties and righteousness, and is set against the backdrop of war. Its tragic causes and tragic effects are in line with Hegel’s aesthetic theory of tragedy. Therefore, by analysing the ancient Chinese novel, we can gain a deeper understanding of Hegel’s aesthetic the

Abstract Joanna Baillie (1762–1851) came to fame in 1798 with the first volume of her Plays on the Passions, which included her theoretical account of drama, including tragedy. This article reconstructs Baillie's theory of tragedy and shows how the theory informs the design of the Plays on the Passions. For Baillie, all human beings have powerful and dangerous passions that we need to learn to regulate. Tragedy can help with this and can serve an educative purpose by presenting us with narratives in which the protagonists repeatedly fail to check the growth of a particular passion, such as jea

Abstract:

In this article Stephe Harrop combines theatre history and performance analysis with contemporary agonistic theory to re-conceptualize Greek tragedy's contested spaces as key to the political potentials of the form. She focuses on Athenian tragedy's competitive and conflictual negotiation of performance space, understood in relation to the cultural trope of the agon. Drawing on David Wiles's structuralist analysis of Greek drama, which envisages tragedy's spatial confrontations as a theatrical correlative of democratic politics, performed tragedy is here re-framed as a site of embodied contest

Corona virus 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic of today is a real tragedy for it has taken the lives of millions of people worldwide regardless of their social, political and material status. This will absolutely change the minds of those with classic views of tragedy. It is said that the concept of tragedy has changed greatly since early modern ages, more specifically in the sixteenth century. Modern people are supposed to view tragedy in a different way the classical people viewed it. Having grief towards an ordinary person and not a king, a queen or a prince defines modern views of tragedy. Terry Ea

How to make sense of what happened in Itaewon on October 29th? In hindsight, the catastrophic event which claimed the lives of 159 youths on the Halloween eve appears to have been a dire forecast of bizarre administrative debacles that were to follow under South Korea’s current regime. Yet if it seems too simplistic, or morally disingenuous, to shift the entire blame to the incompetence and misrule of the powers that be, it is because the tragedy, like so many others preceding it in Korea’s turbulent modern history, once again raises to the fore the problematic nature of communal being of whic

It would seem impossible to wrench dramatic tragedy away from humanism.

Certainly this is George Steiner's view in The Death of Tragedy (1961), although his conservative hierarchies (no gods, no tragedy) have been refuted by critics who argue that there is profound tragedy in ordinary life (Williams; Eagleton; Poole) and that tragedy

It is no exaggeration to say that Aristotle's Poetics is one of the most influential documents in the history of Western tradition.

Even after it had lost its privileged status – first to the alternative theories of literature brought forth by the Romantic movement and then to the literary theory and practice of twentieth-century modernism – the Poetics still retained its role of the normative text in opposition to which those new theories were bei

AbstractThe article thematizes the uniquely complex relation between theory and theatre by focusing on the specific case of theory presented on stage.

Commenting on a particularly telling example of theory on stage: Karl Marx: Das Kapital, Erster Band von Rimini Protokoll (2006), it is argued that the power of the performance is able to uncover under the surface of a seemingly well-known and well-ordered theory a mostly

Abstract:

In this essay, I want to provide an introduction to Aristotle's theory of the Greek Tragedy, which he outlines in his book, the Poetics. Many philosophers since Aristotle, including Friedrich Nietzsche and Walter Benjamin, have analysed tragic art and developed their own theories of how it works and what it is for. What makes Aristotle's theory interesting is that it is as relevant to art today as it was in Ancient Greece because it explains the features of not just tragic art, but of the films and stories that we enjoy today. I will explain the features that Aristotle says make a good tragic

These providential events also offer grace and mercy toward the plays' various transgressors who, demonstrating repentance, are freed from the justice their transgressions merit and are consequently granted hopeful futures.

Abstract This essay initially distinguishes Athenian democracy from what I call ‘hyphenated-democracies’, each of which adds a conceptual framework developed in early modern Europe to the language of democracy: representative-democracy, liberal-democracy, constitutional-democracy, republican-democracy. These hyphenated-democracies emphasize the restraints placed on the power of political authorities. In contrast, Athenian democracy with the people ruling over themselves rested on the fundamental principle of equality rather than the limitations placed on that rule. However, equality as the def
