Présentation de l'éditeur:
Antigone has become a major figure in current cultural discourse thanks to the late twentieth-century interpretations by such controversial theorists as Lacan, Derrida, Irigaray, Zizek, and Judith Butler. This collection of articles by distinguished scholars from a variety of intellectual disciplines (including philosophy, psychoanalysis, feminism, theatre, and the classics) provides a postmodern perspective on the ethical and political issues raised by this ancient text and recent theatrical productions. The contributors provide an array of perspectives on a female figure who questions the role of the patriarchal state.

S. E. Wilmer is Head of the School of Drama, Film, and Music, Trinity College, Dublin
Audrone Zukauskaite is Senior researcher at the Culture, Philosophy, and Arts Research Institute, Vilnius
