Descrizione

Sophocles' timeless tragedy invites readers into a world of moral dilemmas and familial loyalty through the compelling story of Antigone. Set against the backdrop of Thebes, the narrative unfolds the conflict between personal conviction and state law as the titular character faces dire consequences for burying her brother, Polynices. Her unwavering commitment to familial duty clashes with King Creon’s edicts, setting the stage for a profound exploration of ethics, justice, and the human spirit.

F. Storr's translation captures the essence of Sophocles' original text, presenting the poignant dialogue and rich character development in a way that resonates with contemporary audiences. As Antigone strives to honor her brother, readers are drawn into her struggles and the stark realities of a society grappling with the weight of authority and the consequences of defiance. The emotional depth of the characters highlights the timeless relevance of their choices.

Through this powerful retelling, the tragic fate of Antigone serves as a stark reminder of the potential conflict between individual morals and societal expectations. The narrative provokes thought about the nature of justice and the sacrifices one makes for love, illuminating themes that remain profoundly relevant even in modern discourse. Each page invites reflection on the enduring questions of loyalty, power, and the consequences of standing up for one’s beliefs.
