Euripidés Volgorde van de boeken

Premiéra 27. dubna 2024 v Divadle Antonína Dvořáka. *** Jedna z nejslavnějších antických tragédií v novém překladu grécisty Matyáše Havrdy a spisovatele Petra Borkovce, který vznikl přímo pro naše divadlo. Snad žádná jiná postava v dějinách divadla nebudí tolik vášní jako ona! Médea – žena, která z lásky k Iásonovi zradila svého otce, zabila bratra a navždy opustila vlast. Následovala ho do Řecka a porodila mu dvě děti. Po pár letech ale musí uvolnit místo jiné ženě, mladší královské dceři. A tak se rozhodne pro pomstu, během které spáchá nejhorší čin, jakého se matka může dopustit… Co se stane, když lásku a věrnost nahradíme sobectvím a pragmatismem? Jaké strašné zápasy a oběti nás pak čekají? Médea přináší téma zrady a pomsty, ale i opuštění. Zážitek toho, že jsme byli zrazeni a opuštěni někým blízkým, nutně podkopává bezpečnost světa. Je vůbec možné někomu věřit? Eurípidés ve svém zpracování slavné báje zároveň zpochybňuje tradiční genderové role, zabývá se otázkou zla v nás i kolem nás a neschopností člověka mu trvale vzdorovat. Obsahuje též: Médea / Eurípidés v překladu P. Borkovce a M. Havrdy.

Set in ancient Greece, this play explores themes of love, jealousy, and revenge through the story of Odysseus and his encounter with the Cyclops, Polyphemus.

Enhanced by Onésimo Colavidas' illustrations, this edition brings a fresh visual interpretation to Euripides' classic tale, inviting readers to experience the drama and tension of this mythological encounter.

Paul Woodruff's Living Toward Virtue gives ethics a new start that is practical and down to earth, while resting on a foundation of ancient wisdom. Woodruff draws on the ancient wisdom of Socrates to develop a new approach to an ethical life - one that shows how we can nurture our souls, enjoy a virtuous happiness, and avoid moral injury.

There's no decent way to say an indecent thing An industrial port of a war-torn city. Women survivors wait to be shipped abroad. Officials come and go. A grandmother, once queen, watches as her remaining family are taken from her one by one. The city burns around them. First performed in 415BC, the play focuses on the human cost of war and the impact of loss. This new Student Edition of The Women of Troy includes a commentary and notes by Emma Cole, which looks at the Trojan War as represented in Greek literature and myth; the context in which Euripides was writing and within which the play was first performed; how it would have been originally staged and dramaturgical challenges met; as well as recent performance history of the play, including Katie Mitchell's iconic 2007 production at the National Theatre. Euripides' great anti-war play is published here in Don Taylor's classic translation.

The comic-book adaptation reimagines Euripides's The Trojan Women, focusing on the aftermath of Troy's destruction through the experiences of Hekabe, Andromache, and Kassandra. In a unique artistic approach, characters are depicted as animals to symbolize the dehumanizing effects of war, while Kassandra retains her human form, reflecting her psychological detachment. This collaboration between visual artist Rosanna Bruno and poet Anne Carson offers a poignant exploration of the emotional toll of conflict on individuals.
