7 The Philosophy Philosophy, the art of thinking, began in Greece (Socrates, Plato, Aristotle)
8 Aristotle ( BC) author of Poetics,, which defined Greek tragedy Tragedy is a drama that recounts an important and unhappy event in the life of a significant person A tragic hero must be a person capable of great suffering Tragedy explores humankind s questions of the ways of god or fate Tragedy shows how a person is brought to disaster by a single character flaw Tragedy arouses the emotions of pity, fear, wonder, awe, and ends with a catharsis of emotions.
9 Aristotle s Tragic Hero Must come from nobility Must have a tragic flaw Undergoes a reversal of fortune(fall from high place) Finally recognizes his/her mistakes
10 The Unities A. Unity of Time (play is limited to a 24 hour period) B. Unity of Place (scenes/locations did not change) C. Unity of Action (one storyline without subplots or diversions
11 Purpose of the Plays Everyone was expected to attend based on civic duty Plays were a form of religious worship They taught moral lessons such as moderation, duty, etc. Violent acts were not permitted on stage but were simply reported to the audience by a character
12 Dramatic Structure
13 Terms to Know Catharsis- the release of pent up emotions or tension, sometimes through art or music and sometimes through behavior Hubris- having excessive pride or arrogance
14 The Myths a key factor in Greek Tragedy
15 The Myths Why they were written 1. Explained the unexplainable 2. Justified religious practices 3. Gave credibility to leaders 4. Gave hope 5. Polytheistic (more than one god) 6. Centered around the twelve Olympians (primary Greek gods)
16 To give credibility to leaders The Greeks used myths to create family trees for their leaders, enforcing the madeup idea that the emperors were related to the gods and were, then, demigods.

44 Where and how were the dramas performed? In an amphitheatre
45 Where and how were the dramas performed? With a chorus who described most of the action.
46 Where and how were the dramas performed? With masks
47 The Stage
48 Thespis was the The Playwrights first playwright to tell a story. He had one chorus member step away from the others to play the part of a hero or god.
49 How were the dramas developed? Aeschylus added a second individual actor to the performance, thus creating the possibility of conflict.
50 How were the dramas developed? Sophocles adds a third actor; now we have fullblown drama.
51 Sophocles Antigone Set in Thebes (a city in ancient Greece)
52 Is based on the myth of Oedipus, which all Greek audiences would have known well This allowed the audience to focus on the message being delivered rather than the events
53 The Story of Oedipus Oedipus is given away by his parents, Laios and Jocasta when they learn from an oracle that their son would kill his father and marry his mother.
54
55 The ancient citizens of Greece would sacrifice and pray to an ORACLE. An oracle was a priest or priestess who would send a message from the gods to mortals who brought their requests.
56 The Oracle at Delphi Most famous oracle in Greek mythology.
57 Sophocles Antigone Oedipus learns of the oracle and believing the king and queen of Corinth are his parents, he leaves to avoid the oracle.
58 Sophocles Antigone Oedipus travels to Thebes, killing Laios on the way. He saves the city from a terrible monster, the Sphinx.
59 Sophocles Antigone Thebes rewards him by making him king and giving him the queen to marry.
60 Sophocles Antigone A plague hits the city and the oracle warns that it won t go away until the killer of King Laios is punished.
61 Sophocles Antigone Oedipus investigates and finds out he killed his father and married his mother.
62 Sophocles Antigone Oedipus blinds himself and Jocasta kills herself.
63 Sophocles Antigone Antigone is the daughter of Oedipus and Jocasta.
64 Sophocles Antigone Antigone s brothers, Eteokles and Polyneces, were to rule in alternate years.
65 Sophocles Antigone Eteokles refused to give up the throne for Polyneces at the end of his year.
66 Sophocles Antigone Polyneces went to Argos and raised an army to gain the throne.
67 Sophocles Antigone Eteokles and Polyneces killed each other in battle.
68 Sophocles Antigone Antigone s uncle, Creon, became king of Thebes.
69 Sophocles Antigone Creon, gives Eteokles, his ally, a hero s burial and issues a decree against burying Polyneces.
70 Sophocles Antigone Antigone believes that he is wrong and that both of her brothers should be buried with honor.
71 Ancient Greek Burial Traditions 1. Bury or burn the body to keep the soul from wandering the earth 2. Dead are washed and dressed in fine clothing. 3. The mouth and eyes of the dead are shut to prevent the soul from leaving the body. 4. Mourners wear black and/or cut their hair. 5. The body is followed by a procession. 6. Wine was poured over the gravesite and there was a sacrifice of food and drink. 7. Flowers were laid on the gravesite. 8. A funeral feast was prepared. 9. Dead were buried in a special place called a necropolis city of the dead. 10. A coin was placed inside the dead s mouth to pay the ferryman for a ride across the River Styx into the underworld.
72 Sophocles Antigone The play is based on three major conflicts Human law vs. God s law Civic Duty vs. Family Duty Man s role vs. Woman s role
