Žrtvin izbor i spas: paralela: Euripidova Ifigenija u Aulidi i Okamenjeno more Velimira Lukića

Abstract

Obrada lika lfigenije najbolje govori о razlikama u tumačenju istog mita, o različitim pogledima na svet grčkog i srpskog pesnika. Euripidova heroina svojom žrtvom hoće da, pre nego što bude kasno, podseti zaraćene strane (u Peloponeskorn ratu) na zajedničku borbu protiv varvara i na staru slavu. Lukićeva Ifigenija, pak, prezire rat, licemerje, laž, slavu i taštinu, i odlazi u smrt zgađena, jer samo tako može da iskupi vIastiti život i sačuva dostojanstvo.

The analysis of Iphigenia as a literary character speaks best of differences in interpretation of the same myth and different perception of world of the Greek and the Serbian poets. With sacrificing herself, Euripides' heroine wants to remind the warring factions (in the Peloponnesian War) of joint fight against barbarians and of old fame, before it is too late. Lukić's Iphigenia, however, despises war, hipocrisy, lie, fame and vanity, and meets her death disgusted, as only thus can she redeem her own life and save her dignity. The paper tackles plays performed in the National Theater in Belgrade and in the National Theater in Niš in 1962, induding information on all performers. Velimir Lukić (1936-1997)
