BOOK EXCERPT:
Simone Weils supernaturalist interpretations of tragedy challenge not only the philosophical skepticism but also the religious rationalism characteristic of the modern age. This book boldly points out a supernaturalist alternative to contemporary, post-structuralist literary theory. This study of classical tragic drama offers a sacralizing impetus to secular discussions of literature. The books Platonic premises and its grounding in the transcendental outlook of the religious traditions furnish a sacred illumination. Religious mystery and the cross of Christ both overshadow and deepen philosophical approaches to literary criticism, including theories of tragedy. Simone Weils conception of tragic art, rooted in a mystical Christian metaphysics, offers original insight into the nature of tragedy. In contradiction of the prevailing secular outlook, Weil regards classical tragedy as a sacred art form. Tragic masterpieces evoke not the chaotic or irrational, as modernist interpreters hold, but rather a good which is absolute

BOOK EXCERPT:
This powerful study is based on the premise that literary theory is important because literature is important. Bugliani explores the intersection of tragedy with philosophy and psychoanalysis. A threefold purpose is evident: to examine the tension between philosophy and literature, to discuss the teaching of tragedy and finally to discuss that teaching in the works of Lacan, Marcel and, above all, Paul Claudel.

BOOK EXCERPT:
This book makes a new assessment of the background of Elizabethan tragedy in order to show the importance of embryonic tragic situations, characters, and patterns of emotion in medieval and Tudor drama. It considers how these basic elements were later combined and shaped into effective dramatic forms by current ideas about the nature of tragic action. Tragedy on the Elizabethan stage was by no means a single or homogeneous phenomenon: this study examines the reasons for the appearance of several forms of tragedy at almost the same time. Its concentration upon a limited and well-documented period of stage history makes possible further insight into the nature of tragedy in general. -- from Book Jacket.
