{"product_id":"the-passions-in-play-alessandro-schiesaro-9780521037655","title":"The Passions in Play: Thyestes and the Dynamics of Senecan Drama","description":"This book subjects the most accomplished and important of Seneca's tragedies Thyestes to the kind of critical analysis now available for authors such as Virgil, Ovid and Lucan. Drawing many insights from psychoanalytic theory, and recent advances in post-Virgilian literary criticism, it also discusses several other plays of Seneca. The volume presents, therefore, a detailed and comprehensive analysis of all the main themes and stylistic features of Seneca's tragedies. While stressing the importance of Thyestes in post-Classical aesthetics, the study offers important insights into authors such as Ovid and Lucan as well.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alessandro Schiesaro\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521037654\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521037655\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/12\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.67d","brand":"Alessandro Schiesaro","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45478336659711,"sku":"9780521037655","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_45083647-7a2f-4cd2-b583-c48c4f365dc9.jpg?v=1715934956","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-passions-in-play-alessandro-schiesaro-9780521037655","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
