Abstract

ABSTRACT:Starting from the idea that in Persians Aeschylus was attempting to arouse fear and pity in the audience (rather than glee at victory over the enemy), I propose to demonstrate that one of the resources he deployed to this end was the use of vocabulary and formulas typical of the genre of funerary epigraphy. This enabled him to present Persian grief in terms very familiar to the Athenian–and more generally, the Pan-Hellenic–audience. The influence of funerary epigraphy has not yet been analyzed in relation to Persians, but such an approach may shed new light on our understanding of this play.

波斯人，一长Thrēnos

摘要：从《波斯人》中埃斯库罗斯试图唤起观众的恐惧和怜悯（而不是为战胜敌人而高兴）这一观点出发，我建议证明他为此所使用的资源之一是使用了葬礼金石学流派的典型词汇和公式。这使他能够用雅典观众——更广泛地说，泛希腊观众——非常熟悉的方式来表达波斯的悲伤。随葬金石学对波斯人的影响尚未得到分析，但这种方法可能会为我们理解这部剧提供新的线索。
