  • "Tragedy," Reconsidered

    George SteinerARTICLENew Literary History2004Cited by: 3

    George Steiner reconsiders the arguments of The Death of Tragedy more than forty years after its publication. Noting the radical indeterminacy of "tragedy" and "tragic," he seeks to delimit these terms not through fruitless attempts at formal definition but by elucidating a common core of suppositions. According to Steiner, this core consists of a sense of ontological homelessness, of "alienation or ostracism from the safeguard of licensed being.…

    George SteinerARTICLEEuropean Judaism2003

    How did George Steiner respond to this laudatio? With his permission, European Judaism here brings most of his response, fully aware that, as always, translators are traitors to the text; we lose so much of the delicacy of the text, but we must be grateful that one of the great teachers of Europe permits us this partial ingress into the changing patterns of European thought in a moment of reflection and response to a literary prize which must be …

  • Chapter Three

    George SteinerCHAPTERAntigones1986

    In order to comprehend classical Greek texts or any other text that is set in a language that could be compared to the formally and density of that used in Sophocles' Antigone would entail utilizing a great deal of both inaccessibility and immediacy in order to attain a certain degree of stability. Although this sort of approach may shed light on the text's general meaning, such an endeavour will only yield temporary results because of the varied…

  • Chapter Two

    George SteinerCHAPTERAntigones1986

    As early as the 5th or 4th century bc, we can already observe early images of Antigone being presented to Creon as observed through a vase-painting. Several interpretations and versions had already been made about Antigone, and the nature of such works ranged from narratives, choreographies, operatic performances, and other such mediums. Along with these presentations, scholars continue now to come up with poetic, political, and philosophical ana…

  • Chapter One

    George SteinerCHAPTERAntigones1986

    Various Europeans scholars, poets, and philosophers who lived during the period between 1790 and 1905 would all agree that, aside from how Sophocles' Antigone was the best of Greek tragedies, this tragedy is the closest to perfection than any other work of art created by the human spirit can get. As Athens during the 5th-century facilitated the emergence of thoughts and discussions about the pre-eminence of man, his genius was recognized in terms…
