Júlio Dantas's Antígona
Fialho, Maria do CéuIn his play Antigone (1946), Júlio Dantas draws from sources from the Greek tragedy on the myth of Oedipus, especially Sophocles' eponymous play. The dramatic structure revolves around Antigone whose character is indebted to the romantic model of the martyr heroine, rebelling out of impulse. This dramatic reorganization, when compared to the Greek archetype, tends to emphasize the protagonist's role. This perf...
Helenos e Bárbaros em Ésquilo: Autognose e problematização do Eu na represen...
Fialho, Maria do CéuThe duality Greek-barbarian is presented, as soon as Aeschyllus, as relativistic. The universality of the principle of excess and punishment in The Persians touches, as a possibility, also the Greek, once the Dike has been infringed. On the other hand, the distortion of the political behaviour in The Seven against Thebes ends up with colours inspired by Asian excess, seeming to lead up to the question: "Aren't ...

Trees companions of men
Fialho, Maria do CéuThe durability of the tree, its strength, properties and diversity of gifts, one, the acacia, the gum arabic, which gives consistency and integrity to artifacts, that prepares the body for immortality, and allows the soul to save its navigation, which marks the possible proximity of eternity and man’s alliance with it, and of another tree, the olive tree, its ability to feed, to illuminate, to materialize rebir...
The myth of Colonus and Athens salvation
Fialho, Maria do CéuThrough the dramatization of the reception, end of life and mysterious tomb of Oedipus in the wood of Colonus, Sophocles beckons with hope and conviction, underlined by the halo of holyness that surrounds the space, the action and the future hero, that Athens owns the strength to re-enforce, after a long and exhausting civil war. The city will have to recover its primordial values, manifested in Theseus, and th...
A trilogia de Tróia de João de Castro Osório: uma reescrita nietzscheana do mit...
Fialho, Maria do CéuEsta produção de João de Castro Osório tem o alto valor documental de atestar uma presença única: a influência, no teatro português, do eixo Nietzsche / Wagner, num contexto ideológico esperado. Ele constitui o único caso de composição de trilogias dramáticas em Portugal. O teatro de Castro Osório é marcado por um forte componente da retórica ultra-romântica, o que torna difícil a sua encenação. De acordo com a...
Tiago Rodrigues: oblivion and rescue. Iphigenia, Agamemnon, Electra or the powe...
Fialho, Maria do CéuIn 2015, Tiago Rodrigues staged his trilogy. An anonymous all-female choir echoes the millenary multiplicity of tragic voices. Memory makes explicit the relationship of the trilogy on stage with the tradition that rewrites the primordial tragedy. Euripides and Aeschylus are coalesced as archetypes, but give rise to an interpellation of the spectator that shatters scenic illusion and causes tragedy and tradition...
Cosmópolis: mobilidades culturais às origens do pensamento antigo
Cornelli, Gabriele; Fialho, Maria do Céu; Leão, DelfimDespite its tensions and contradictions, the various discourses on globalization hint at a desire to build a space and time for encounters between worlds and cultures, through the persistence of a dialogue that shortens the distances, but respects the differences. A considerable part of the political, cultural, urban, linguistic shape of the Western world drew inspirations and solutions from the experience of p...
War Fever: rhetoric and demagogy in Iphigenia at Aulis
Fialho, Maria do CéuIphigenia at Aulis is set against the background of Euripides’ questioning of the fairness of war, at a time of decadence and fragmentation of Hellas, as a result of the long civil war that destroyed cities, values and exposed all the repercussions of the evil actions of demagogues, the danger of people falling prey to manipulation due to their thirst for the wealth so easily obtained in wartime. The innocent a...
