Politics of Youth in Greek Tragedy
Politics of Youth in Greek Tragedy
Shipton argues that the prominence of young people in tragedy throughout the fifth century reflects the persistent uncertainty as to what their role in society should be. As the success of Athens rose and then fell, young characters were repeatedly used by tragic playwrights as a way to explore political tensions and social upheaval in the city. Throughout his text, Shipton reflects on how negative conceptualisations of youth, often expressed via the socially constructed `gang' are formed as a way in which paradoxical views on youth can be contained.
