201215142Georg Olms Verlag. 2012. Paperback. Fine in No Dust Jacket dust jacket. Book is fine.; Classici sono quei testi capaci di originare riscritture e riconoscibili come modelli di altre espressioni letterarie o artistiche. Questo fenomeno di geminazione è particolarmente vistoso per l’Edipo re di Sofocle e l’Edipo di Seneca la cui ricezione è un labirinto fitto e mutevole ricco di contaminazioni e di reticoli intertestuali in cui lo stesso esercizio critico entra a far parte del processo di riscrittura. Il volume comprende 19 contributi: un ampio saggio introduttivo su alcuni particolari temi e morfemi del mito lungo tutta la sua tradizione; 6 contributi dedicati ai due testi antichi fondativi della tradizione edipica; ed infine 12 capitoli incentrati sull'analisi - senza pretese di esaustività - delle diverse tradizioni letterarie teatrali visive e cinematografiche della fortuna di Edipo lungo una dimensione cronologica e geografica che muove dalle prime riprese nella cultura europea dei secoli XVI e XVII fino alla contemporaneità. In chiusura la testimonianza di Edoardo Sanguineti straordinario interprete del teatro classico e dei classici più in generale che ha tradotto a suo modo un Edipo tiranno messo in scena nel 1980 da Benno Besson.; Spudasmata Band 149; 450 pages . 3487148722 .
