Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Phoenissae is probably Seneca's final play, left unfinished at the time of his death in 65 CE from a suicide ordered by the emperor Nero. It is a work of great dramatic, poetic, and intellectual force, a paradigm of Rome's literature of civil war, packed with the latter's vocabulary and imag…ery and permeated by issues central to Senecan thinking and tragic practice. Prominent themes include: the imperatives of family and self, of identity and place;violence and cost (psychological, familial, social); anger, self-loathing, suicide, and moral action; fate, guilt, horror; the cyclicity and triumph of evil; the allure of power; the violation of nature; the failureof pietas. Also meriting notice are more formal issues of theatricality, literary self-consciousness, and belatedness. Especially important is the theme of incest, its dissolution of political, moral, social, and natural order, its collapse of individual identity, its function as metaphor for the evil of civil war. Like the unfinished epic of Seneca's nephew Lucan, Phoenissae is immediate precursor to the bloody internecine warfare of 68DS69 CE and a prophetic mirror of Rome.This is A. J. Boyle's seventh full-scale edition for OUP of a play by or attributed to Seneca. It offers a comprehensive introduction, newly edited Latin text, English verse translation designed forboth performance and academic study, and a detailed exegetic, analytic, and interpretative commentary. The aim has been to elucidate the text dramatically as well as philologically, and to locate the play firmly in its contemporary historical and theatrical context and the ensuing literary and dramatic tradition. As such, its substantial influence on European drama from the sixteenth to the twenty-first centuries is given emphasis throughout; this and the accessibility of the commentary toLatinless readers make the edition particularly useful to scholars and students not only of classics, but also of comparative literature and of drama, and to anyone interested in the cultural dynamics ofliterary reception and the interplay between theatre and history. Phoenissae is probably Seneca's final play, a work of great dramatic, poetic, and intellectual force, permeated by issues central to Senecan thinking and tragic practice. This edition offers a newly edited Latin text, English verse translation, and a detailed commentary setting the work in its theatrical and historical context.
