摘要

摘要：本文从四个中心主题对希罗多德的《克罗伊斯》和索福克勒斯的《俄狄浦斯》的衰落进行了比较：无知和学习太迟；错位的希望；命运的多变；以及命运和责任。我们的分析揭示了两位作者的作品之间惊人的相似性，不仅在他们对人类命运的概念以及对神圣和人类因果关系的研究方面，而且在希罗多德和索福克勒斯如何通过使用相似的叙事技巧，特别是通过使用不同的聚焦来吸引观众方面。此外，它还表明，亚里士多德《诗学》中关于最优秀悲剧的许多特征不仅适用于索福克勒斯的俄狄浦斯·泰兰努斯，也适用于希罗多德的克罗伊索斯逻各斯。

The Downfall of Croesus and Oedipus: Tracing Affinities Between Herodotus' Histories and Sophocles' Oedipus Tyrannus

ABSTRACT:In this paper, we compare the downfall of Herodotus' Croesus and Sophocles' Oedipus against four central themes: ignorance and learning too late; misplaced hope; mutability of fortune; and fate and responsibility. Our analysis reveals striking affinities between the two author's works, not only in their conception of human fortune and the working of divine and human causation, but also in how Herodotus and Sophocles engage their audiences by employing similar narrative techniques, notably through the use of different focalizations. Moreover, it shows that many of the features highlighted in Aristotle's Poetics for the finest tragedy not only apply to Sophocles' Oedipus Tyrannus but also to Herodotus' Croesus logos.
