Learning outcomes
This course aims at favouring a philological and interpretative approach to the texts of the ancient Greek literature, by means of the study of their linguistic and stylistic features in a strict connection with the other literary genres, and of their manuscript and printed transmission. The knowledge of the Ancient Greek is required. On successful completion of the module, students will be able to re-elaborate critically the acquired knowledge, and to discuss topics employing appropriate methodology.
Program
Critical edition, interpretation, commentary: some case studies from Euripides’ Electra.
The course concentrates on the various steps in the textual and interpretative work about 5th century BCE plays, with special reference to Euripides’ Electra and other tragedies.
