| Meer info | 'Sophocles to Professor Waldock is essentially a dramatic artist, and should not be scrutinized too closely for deeper meaning. A dramatist is obliged to write for immediate impression. (...) Our attention is drawn to what Waldock neatly calls the documentary fallacy - the assumption that in drama as in life the least phenomena depend on a chain of causation which it may be necessary to investigate. In fact, a play is designed to convey one major impression in the simplest way. We are warned against pattern-making and advised that every play has its won particular function. A discussion of catharsis is appended. Waldock then examines the individual plays. He devotes much space to dramatic necessity of certain features, and describes the general impression of the plays. Waldock's style is vigorous and attractive. He makes a number of trenchant observations, which are reasonable in themselves and of value to anyone to whom they have not already occurred.' (A.D. FITTON BROWN in The Classical Review (New Series), 1953, p.152). From the library of the late Prof. W. Geoffrey Arnott. |
