Questo volume presenta gli atti del Convegno Internazionale Il mito degli Atridi dal teatro antico all’epoca contemporanea, tenuto presso il Dipartimento di Filologia, Letteratura e Linguistica dell’Università di Pisa il 26-27 maggio 2020, nell’ambito del Progetto di Ricerca di Ateneo 2020 dallo stesso titolo.

The papers presented here aim to investigate various aspects of a myth that had an immense fortune in antiquity and profoundly influenced art and literature throughout Western culture. The subject is approached from a number of different perspectives and methods (textual-critical study of ancient texts, historical-anthropological research on issues posed by the myth, dramaturgical analysis of plays, and study of their reception in modern authors). Without aspiring to deal comprehensively with such a broad topic, the authors have concentrated on peculiar aspects that have been less investigated up to now, and on modern authors for whom there is still much to say about their relationship with ancient myth. The contributions range, for the ancient part, from mythographers to Greek tragedy and comedy (with particular attention to fragments of lost works), up to Roman tragedy and comedy; for the modern part, the investigations concern authors from Italian, English and German literature: Alfieri, D’Annunzio, Pirandello, Saba, Pasolini, Testori, E. Pfeiffer, G. Hauptmann. Series: Lexis Supplements 12. Sub-series: Lexis Studies in Greek and Latin Literature 8.
