Förlagets beskrivning
In Dr. Jacob's book he is rightly interested in winning converts to the
neoclassical strain in early modern English literature - as well as to the
classical moment it sought to give rebirth. Both of these eras are obvious
turning points in Western literature and life. He also briefly summarizes the
history of Senecan influence in Tudor-Stuart drama, and yet has space and time
to provide pages of excerpts from ancient historical and philosophical writers
whose works influenced the three English dramas. The three plays presented should serve as a model of the high artistic
development of English tragedy in the Elizabethan Age. The introduction
highlights the indebtedness of this achievement to the literary and
philosophical influence of Seneca.
