| description | In Trachiniae and Philoctetes, Sophocles shows suffering bodies on stage, in spectacles full of pathos. Physical suffering points to the limits of the heroism of Heracles and Philoctetes. It also gives rise to a moral crisis (the revolt of Hyllos against the gods and the remorse of Neoptolemus who abandons trickery). This crisis is emblematic of the aim of tragedy for the Ancients, namely to ensure that the spectacle of misfortune alters the behaviour of the audience. |
