Новый герой для нового мира: особенности ученического пути Одиссея в древнегреческих трагедиях
The article examines the images of Odysseus in ancient Greek tragedies and identifies the reasons for his representation on the Athenian stage of the 5th century BC not only as a positive hero. Mainly due to Homer, in the ancient literary tradition he was presented as a hero with a special mindset. In Sophocles and Euripides texts, Odysseus is represented in a number of statuses or positions, among which a student can be found. The surviving tragedies involving Odysseus can be divided into two groups: tragedies in which Odysseus acts in Troy, and tragedies where he is also a participant in the Trojan campaign, but the action takes place outside of the city (at Aulis and Lemnos). In the tragedies of the first group (“Ajax” by Sophocles, “Hecuba” and “Trojans” by Euripides), his training takes place during the war, and in the tragedies of the second group (“Iphigenia in Aulis” by Euripides and “Philoctetes” by Sophocles) in the peacetime. Focusing on the peculiarities of the tragic hero's learning experience, Sophocles and Euripides arrange the tragic action so that the characters discuss or condemn the peculiarities of Odysseus’ traineeship, which took place within the framework of the Trojan campaign.
