Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hercules is the best-known character from classical mythology. Seneca's play Hercules Furens presents the hero at a moment of triumph turned to tragedy. Hercules returns from his final labor, his journey to the Underworld, and then slaughters his family in an episode of madness. This play exerted great influence on Shakespeare and other Renaissance tragedians, and also inspired contemporary adaptations in film, TV, and comics. Aimed at undergraduates and non-specialists, this companion introduces the play's action, historical context and literary tradition, critical reception, adaptation, and performance tradition.
Download or read book Seneca Hercules Furens written by Margarethe Billerbeck and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-07-17 with total page 759 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is most comprehensive study of Seneca's Hercules Furens to date and indeed of any Roman tragedy. Apart from illustrating the poetic language, the literary conventions and the dramatic technique of the play, the book highlights the figure of the Roman Hercules in relation to its Greek model, the Euripidean Herakles. The comprehensive introduction on myth, modern interpretations and textual transmission of the play is followed by a discussion of the newly discovered collation of the codex Etruscus by J.F. Gronovius. The detailed commentary is provided with a new critical edition and a new German translation. The work includes a full bibliography, an analytical index and a complete index of passages cited. Special attention is given to literary motifs and topoi as well as to Seneca's poetic language in its pivotal position between the Augustan poets and Neronian-Flavian epic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Tragedies of Seneca: Hercules Furens, Troades, Medea The last decade has seen a revival of interest in the Latin Tragedy, which had long been neglected. In many colleges and universities the plays are studied now either in independent courses or as supplementary to work in the Comedy. The neglect, no doubt, was due in part to the want of available editions with English notes. On the Continent of Europe, especially in Germany, much labor has been de voted to the constitution of the text, and'many monographs on various phases of the subject have been published. In England and America, on the other hand, little has been done for many years. It has been the fashion to dismiss the Senecan tragedies airily as unworthy of serious attention; but such criticism seems to have been based in most cases on slight first hand acquaintance with them. Undeniably they have their faults, yet have withal a real interest and value, first as the sole remains of an important branch of Roman literature, second for their Own content and style, and third for their direct and powerful influence upon the English drama of the Elizabethan age. Most of them, furthermore, may be compared directly with their Greek originals, an advantage we do not enjoy in studying the Latin Comedy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hercules Furens: A Tragedy of Seneca Thebes alone, profuse of shameless women, borne any husband sons! Alemene is allowed to go aloft and hold my place, my victor; and her son too, for whose birth the world gave up a day, and Phœbus, ordered to retain his brightness sunk beneath the Ocean, late illumed the Eastern sea, Alcides, has a promised seat in heaven. My wrath shall not thus die away: my raging soul shall cherish lasting hatred, and my cruel grief shall rupture peace and wage eternal war. What war? Whatever mouster hateful Earth has fathered, Hercules has conquered; and whatever frightful, dreadful, loathesome, fierce and savage thing the sea or air affords, has been subdued and tamed; and yet he lives and strengthens by his evils, and enjoys my rage: he makes my very hate his praise: by my too harsh commands I have made known his father: I have been the cause of his renown: his valor unsubdued is worshipped where the sun brings back the morning, and where he renews the evening, and where Ethiopia's coasts are scorched by his near torch: through all the world he is declared a god. Already monsters fail me; and it is less difficult for Hercules to execute my orders, than for me to find commands. He gladly undertakes whatever I impose on him. What harsh commands of Eurystheus can harm the eager youth? He even bears for weapons what he once has feared and overcome: he comes armed with the Lion and the Hydra. Earth is too contracted for him: he has even burst the gates of hell, and bears his booty from its conquered king up to the world. That it has been returned is not enough: the compact of the shades has perished. I myself have seen him scattering the gloom of the infernal deep, and hurling to his father plunder from his vanquished brother god. Why did he not drag out the king himself, of equal power with Jove, subdued and bound with chains, and seizing captured Erebus unbar the Styx? An exit for the shades has been laid open from the deepest cavern, and the secrets of dread Death arc brought to light. And now, the prison of the shades unbarred, he fiercely triumphs over me, and with a haughty hand he drags the dismal dog through Grecian cities. I have seen the clay retire, and the sun shake with fear at sight of Cerberus: a trembling has come over me, and looking on the conquered monsters triple necks, I scarce have dared impose my orders. But I make too light complaints; for heaven has cause to fear, that he, who has subdued the lower world, will also gel possession of the upper. He will not ascend to heaven.
