Image of tragedy.
Lyons, James Charles.

Image of tragedy. - 403 p.

Adviser: Harry J. Elam, Jr.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Stanford University, 2007.

This dissertation is not a discussion of serious drama as literary texts, but as performed texts. My work addresses the interplay between the tangibility or concrete referentiality of the physical image and the rhetorical processes by which the playwright opens up that reference to display an image less sure, more puzzling, and infinitely more provocative. Because they must represent the space and the history that characters inhabit principally through voiced perceptions of scene and experience, playwrights consistently present dramatic figures engaged in problematic epistemological situations. When Orestes recognizes that by assassinating his mother he has violated the earth of Argos and released the chthonic energy of the furies and, at the same time, has fulfilled the commands of Olympian Apollo, he struggles with his perception of the problematic space he inhabits. When Oedipus realizes that Thebes has been the site of a history from which he believed he had escaped, he grapples with a radically transformed relationship of self to scene. When Vladimir and Estragon improvise upon the idea of waiting for Godot, they confront a transitive, uncertain perception of a scene that holds no sure landmarks. Aeschylus, Sophocles, Shakespeare and Beckett represent dramatic characters engaged in difficult epistemological acts---not because they are engaged in writing philosophical tracts but because the dramatic character's voiced effort to perceive and understand the complexities of scene, situation, and history is the fundamental communicative instrument of drama itself.
