Sophocles From New World Encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Previous (Sophists) Next (Sophonisba Breckinridge) A Roman bust of Sophocles Sophocles (c. 496 B.C.E. B.C.E. ) (Ancient Greek: ) was one of the three great ancient Greek tragedians who, with Aeschylus and Euripides , defined the forms of drama and theater, establishing a literary tradition that influenced not only the drama of the ancient world but of the Western literary tradition to the present day. Every major dramatist—from Seneca to William Shakespeare , from Jean-Baptiste Molière to Johann Wolfgang von Goethe —has been influenced in some degree by Sophocles' conception of tragedy. The tragedies of Sophocles are less derivative of Homeric fate or the implacable will of the gods than of inherent human limitations. Prefiguring Shakepearean tragedy, Sophocles explores human fallibility, the limits of knowledge, and the susceptibility of the human condition within the cosmic order. In Sophoclean tragedy, the violation of natural law entails its own consequences, but suffering also provides a means of redemption. Sophocles' protagonists were admired by Aristotle as being "like ourselves only nobler." The plays express deep piety, without

Death: in Athens, approximately 405 B.C.E. As with most authors of this period, our sources for the life of Sophocles are late, dominated by trivial details, entertaining but not very trustworthy. The little surviving contemporary testimony suggests that Sophocles was a man of great personal charm and happiness. In Aristophanes' Frogs , a comedy produced shortly after the deaths of Sophocles and Euripides, Dionysus, the patron god of tragedy, becomes frustrated with the lack of decent playwrights, proposes to descend into the underworld and bring Euripides back to life. The play evolves into a contest between Aeschylus and Euripides, whose styles most violently clashed, but Sophocles is mentioned three times during the play. Dionysus explains that he will not attempt to bring him back from Hades because Euripides was a scoundrel and would inevitably try to escape from Hades, but "Sophocles was good-natured here (i.e., on earth) and will be good-natured there (i.e., in the underworld)" (Aristophanes, Frogs 82) When Euripides first entered the Hades, he stole Aeschylus' seat and claimed primacy as chief poet in the underworld. Sophocles, however, who died shortly before Euripides, greeted Aeschylus with a kiss and clasped his hand. Should Euripides be victorious, then Sophocles would challenge Euripides, but if Aeschylus defeats Euripides, Sophocles would be content (

48. Oedipus The King Summary and analysis of the play by sophocles. http://www.imagi-nation.com/moonstruck/clsc1w1.htm

Oedipus the King A summary and analysis of the play by Sophocles There are none of the plays of Sophocles which exhibit more strikingly than the two which bear the name of Oedipus that solemn irony which the genius of a modern scholar has detected in the frame-work of this poet's tragedies. This irony consists in the contrast which the spectator, well acquainted with the legendary basis of the tragedy, is enabled to draw between the real state of the case and the conceptions supposed to be entertained by the person represented on the stage. It is this contrast, regarded from different points of view, which makes the two plays whose subject is Oedipus the counterparts of one another, and induces us to think that, whether they were or were not written, as is said, nearly at the same time, they were intended by the poet to form constituent parts of one picture. The Oedipus Tyrannus As with the Antigone Oedipus the King and Oedipus at Colonus belong to the legendary era of Thebes.

To the Greeks this god personified both spring and the vintage, the latter a very important time of year in a vine-growing country, and he was a symbol to them of that power there is in man of rising out of himself, of being impelled onwards by a joy within him that he cannot explain, but which makes him go forward, walking, as it were, on the wings of the wind, of the spirit that fills him with a deep sense of worship. We call this power enthusiasm , a Greek word which simply means

If you are a student assigned to read "Oedipus the King", and perhaps also to comment on Aristotle's ideas about tragedy and "tragic flaws", this site will help you get started. Warning: This is NOT a "family" site, and Sophocles is NOT "family entertainment". "Oedipus the King" is a monument to Sophocles's dramatic genius, and to the freedom of Athenian thought. It develops a shocking, profoundly immoral idea about a human being's ultimate relationship to the universe. Thankfully, there is no reason to think that Sophocles's idea is true, or that Sophocles really believed it. Commentators on Sophocles, beginning with Aristotle, have tried to cover over the obvious. This explains the nonsense about "tragic flaws" and "hybris".

Study Guides and Literature Essays Editing Services ... Authors : Sophocles Biography of Sophocles (496 BC-406 BC [approx]) Study Guides and Essays by Sophocles Antigone Electra by Sophocles Oedipus Rex or Oedipus the King Sophocles As with all ancient writers, we can know little for certain about Sophocles' life: sources are few and far between, and much of the information scholars have reached is the result of probability and good guesswork rather than any biographical fact. Some of the sources directly contradict each other. Sophocles, usually considered the most accessible of the central triangle of Greek tragedians (the other two being Euripides and Aeschylus), was probably born in or around 496 BC at Colonus, near Athens, the setting of his Oedipus at Colonos (see, particularly, the Ode to Colonus in that play at 668ff). Sources tells us that Sophocles wrote 123 plays in his lifetime, of which we know the titles of 118. Of this huge output of plays (Shakespeare, in comparison, wrote somewhere between 36-39 plays in his lifetime) only seven survive: Antigone Oedipus Rex (sometimes also called Oedipus Tyrannos Oedipus at Colonos Ajax Electra The Women of Trachis , and Philoctetes . The tiny size of this sample (around 6% of Sophocles’ total output) should be enough to discourage us from making generalizations about Sophocles’ style or development as a writer. All we know about Sophocles’ personality is from Aristophanes’ later play Frogs , which seems to suggest that Sophocles was extremely good-natured and well-liked. Dionysus, in that play, thinks Euripides a ‘scoundrel,’ likely to try and escape from hell, but Sophocles, because he was good-natured on earth, is assumed to be good-natured in Hades.

Born ca. 495 BCE into a wealthy Athenian family, the young Sophocles was chosen because of his beauty to lead the singing and dancing at the ceremony held in celebration of the Persians' defeat at Salamis. The same good fortune followed him into adulthood where, if classical Athens ever had one, he was the perennial "golden boy." For instance, as a young playwright, he defeated the veteran Aeschylus in dramatic competition—the evidence for this is found both on the Parian Marble and in a later history—and from there he went on to win an unprecedented number of playwriting victories at the City Dionysia, all this in spite of suffering from microphonia a bove note Later in life, Sophocles also served his city as soldier and statesman, appointed as General (

sophocles sophocles the man The main source for Sophocles the Man is the ancient "Life of Sophocles" - existing as sort of preface to his plays. Here are some gems - although the Life quotes some sources, without any other means of checking up on them some of this material should possibly be taken with a grain of salt. His father Sophilos was believed by some to have been a carpenter or smith or a sword - maker. Most probably, though, he owned an "armaments business" which employed carpenters and smiths. The Life thinks it improbable that Sophocles could have become a general and friend of Pericles if his father had been a mere workman (so much for Athenian democracy!) - also he'd have been pilloried in comedy (as Euripides was for supposedly having a greengrocer as a mother) - and Sophocles is always mentioned by Aristophanes with greatest respect. He was an Athenian, from the deme (village community) of Colonus - where his last play is set. Check the ode to the place in Oedipus at Colonus line 668ff. His family was well off (as you'd expect if the father was an industrialist). As a boy he won prizes for wrestling and music - and as a 16 year old, was chosen to lead the boys' chorus (singing and dancing) which celebrated the Athenian victory over the Persians at the Battle of Salamis (480 BC). [Supposedly Euripides was born on the same day, while Aeschylus had of course fought in the battle - this is a neat way to remember the age gap between the three great tragedians.] The Life says the boys were naked and shiny with oil - presumably young Sophocles would not have been chosen for this unless he was exceptionally good-looking!

Sophocles Sophocles Sophocles (497 - 406 BCE) was one of three great Greek tragic poets. He came from wealth, and moved easily in society. Over his productive life of over sixty years he wrote over 123 plays, of which only seven remain. BCE The historian Athenaios reported that Sophocles loved boys like Euripides loved women. The poet Ion of Chios relates: His neighbour, who was a schoolmaster of Eretria answered him: You are doubtless a sage poet, Sophocles, but Phrynichos did not express himself well in calling the cheeks of a beautiful boy purple, because, if a Persian had painted them with purple colour, the boy would appear no longer beautiful. Therefore one must not compare the beautiful to the obviously not beautiful. Sophocles laughed and said: So you also won t like the verse of Simonides that the Greeks appreciate so much: From purple lips the girl let flow her voice, and what the poet says of Apollo s golden hair, because, if a painter had painted the god

Sophocles (early 5th century BCE - 406 BCE) was an ancient Greek playwright, dramatist, priest, and politician of Athens. He was also a general for the Athenian Empire in the Peloponnesian Wars, and during his service he led the battle against the Peloponnesian Island of Samos. He is sometimes known as the Attic Bee for the "sweetness of his productions." Sophocles is the second, chronologically, of the three great Greek tragedians; he was several decades younger than Aeschylus and a decade or so older than Euripides, and was often in competition with both in dramatic contests. The year of his birth is contested, with 488 BCE, 495 BCE, and 496 BCE each having advocates. 495 BCE however is preferred by most eminent historians. He is most noted for his prolific playwriting. He wrote 123 plays; in the dramatic competitions of the Festival of Dionysus (where each submission by one author consisted of four plays), he won more first prizes (around 20) than any other playwright, and there is no record of his ever having ranked below second place. Many scholars, including Aristotle, considered Sophocles to be the greatest playwright in ancient Greek theatre. However, of the hundreds of works he produced in his lifetime, only seven tragedies survive in their complete forms, along with around half of a satire play.

Preface Table of Contents Highlights C and MATLAB Functions ... ADSP-2181 Experiments Preface This book provides an applications-oriented introduction to digital signal processing written primarily for electrical engineering undergraduates. Practicing engineers and graduate students may also find it useful as a first text on the subject. Digital signal processing is everywhere. Today's college students hear "DSP" all the time in their everyday life - from their CD players, to their electronic music synthesizers, to the sound cards in their PCs. They hear all about "DSP chips", "oversampling digital filters", "1-bit A/D and D/A converters", "wavetable sound synthesis", "audio effects processors", "all-digital audio studios". By the time they reach their junior year, they are already very eager to learn more about DSP. Approach The learning of DSP can be made into a rewarding, interesting, and fun experience for the student by weaving into the material several applications, such as the above, that serve as vehicles for teaching the basic DSP concepts, while generating and maintaining student interest. This has been the guiding philosophy and objective in writing this text. As a result, the book's emphasis is more on signal processing than discrete-time system theory, although the basic principles of the latter are adequately covered.
