Registration closes at 3 PM EST“Drama Queens” The three great Athenian tragedians—Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides—gave a powerful new expressiveness and a profound interiority to the heroines of myth. In this three-week course, we’ll cover Agamemnon, where Aeschylus gives Clytemnestra a notable complexity, at once deeply sympathetic and horrifyingly violent; Sophocles’ Electra—a remarkably acute portrayal of Clytemnestra's traumatized young daughter, Electra; and Hecuba and Trojan Women by Euripides, famous above all in antiquity for his portrayals of “women on the verge.” Three one-hour sessions: November 5, 12, and 19. All sessions will start at 7 PM EST. Full members and auditors will have access to recordings of each session, which may be viewed after the live sessions conclude. Tomorrow: our next panel discussion with Fintan O’Toole The Emergency Court |
