His father was a wealthy merchant, and he enjoyed an aristocratic education in the arts. As a young man, his skills in music and dancing were such that he was chosen to lead a choir of boys at the celebrations of the victory over the Persians at Salamis. Sophocles' first performance as a playwright, at the age of twenty-eight, was at the City Dionysia of 486 B.C., in which he took first place in a victory over Aeschylus. He went on write over 120 more plays, which won eighteen first-place awards and in many of which he performed himself. Unfortunately, only seven of his tragedies survive, among which are the three Theban plays - Oedipus Rex Antigone , and Oedipus at Colonus - as well as Electra and Ajax . Of these

Browse quotes by source Browse quotes by author SOPHOCLES QUOTES Antigone: Reason is God's greatest gift to man. Sons and fathers crown each other's glory with each other's fame. The kind of man who always thinks that he is rightthat his opinions and his pronouncements are the final wordwhen once exposed, shows nothing their. Show me the man who keeps his house in hand, He's fit for public authority. A wise man has much to learn without a loss of dignity. God and the government ordain just laws; the citizen who rules his life by them is worthy of acclaim. But he that presumes to set the law at naught is like a stateless person, outlawed, beyond the pale. No other touchstone can test the heart of a man, the temper of his mind and spirit, till he be tried in the practice of authority and rule. When I have tried and failed, I shall have failed. Don't kill the messenger. For God hates utterly The bray of bragging tongues. Our ship of fate, which recent storms have threatened to destroy, has come safely to harbor at last. I have nothing but contempt for the kind of governor who is afraid, for whatever reason, to follow the course that he knows is best for the State; and as for the man who sets private friendship above the public welfare I have no use for him, either.

As a preliminary, it is worth reviewing Aristotle's references to Sophocles' play: (i) ch. 11 ( ) discusses the play's reversal; (ii) ch. 11 ( ) comments on the combination of recognition and reversal; (iii) ch. 14 ( ): the plot-type in which a terrible action is followed by recognition; (iv) ch. 16 ( ): the recognition is of the best kind; (v) ch. 15 ( ), ch. 24 ( ): Oedipus’ ignorance of the circumstances of Laius' death is an example of irrationality that is acceptable because it is outside the play; (vi) ch. 26 ( ): extending the play to the length of the Iliad would produce a 'watery' effect; (vii) Rhetoric ): cites Oedipus' expository speech ('My father was Polybus...'). There are also some more general references to the story of Oedipus: (i) ch. 13 ( ): Oedipus is an example of the kind of person suited for best kind of tragedy; (ii) ch. 14 (

Josh Purtle Published Friday, December 7, 2007 Your Name Your Email Friend's Name Friend's Email Message Submit Close A woman in broken overalls points a rifle up, fires and watches as a bloodied and stuffed squirrel drops to her feet. Waxing philosophic, she wonders aloud where squirrels go after they die. “Hillbilly Antigone,” written by Chicago playwright Rick Sims, is a modernized mock-up of its namesake Greek tragedy, dubiously set in the banjo- and rifle-infested hills of Kentucky. King Creon’s Appalachian analog, Creon (pronounced CRAY-uhn) Waller (Brian Hastert DRA ’09) is waging a sort of private holy war against the Flick family. From the pulpit he preaches anti-industrialization, citing the Flicks, who work for the local railroad, as examples of progressive devilry while his son courts Antigone Flick (Brooke Parks DRA ’08) behind his back. The framework of Sophocles’ tragedy translates rather well to this American setting, and Sims sacrifices very little in the transition. Grandma Tiresias (Ji-Youn Chang DRA ’08) stands in for the blind prophet, screeching in tongues during church services; the Olympians are replaced by a Christian God with the same perverted sense of humor. The result is a surprisingly faithful and relevant retelling, a play that stands firmly independent of its ancient Greek inspiration.
