Learning outcomes
Il convegno proporrà una comparazione tra Edipo a Colono di Sofocle e Re Lear di Shakespeare mettendo a fuoco temi comuni, articolazioni drammatiche e performative, relazioni genetiche e culturali, oltre a questioni traduttive. Fra i temi considerati: il rapporto tra padri e figli, follia e saggezza del potere, essere e non essere nel tempo umano e divino.
Questa sessione centrale si collocherà all’interno di una più ampia analisi delle relazioni fra teatro classico e della prima modernità, con particolare riguardo alla ricezione della riflessione antica sul teatro e sull’idea di ‘classico’ nel Rinascimento inglese.
Il convegno sarà arricchito dalla lettura del dramma Oedipus di Ellen McLaughlin da parte della stessa autrice e di Rinde Eckert, oltre che da laboratori teatrali su Edipo a Colono e Re Lear.
