Krátký popis
Seamus Heaney's version of Sophocles's Philoctetes tells of the
wounded hero marooned upon an island by the Greeks during the Siege
of Troy. As the conflict comes to a climax, the Greeks begin to
realise they cannot win the Trojan war without Philoctetes's
invincible bow, and turn back to seek his help. The Cure at Troy
dramatises the conflict between personal integrity and political
expediency, and explores ways in which the victims of injustice can
become as devoted to the contemplation of their wounds as the
perpetrators are to the justification of their system.Responsive to
the Greek playwright's understanding of the relations between
public and private morality, The Cure at Troy is a sharp,
fast-paced retelling of the Greek original, shot through with
Heaney's own Irish speech and context. History says, Don't hope On
this side of the grave. But then, once in a lifetime the longed-for
tidal wave of justice can rise up, and hope and history rhyme.
