À propos de cet audio
Slavoj Žižek revisits his radical interpretation of Antigone 10 years on, elaborating on the original work in daring and surprising ways. This updated text includes an additional essay reflecting on how this play speaks to our contemporary moment more powerfully than ever, as well as a Žižekian version of Sophocles' work.
Antigone is universally celebrated as the ultimate figure of ethical resistance to the state power which oversteps its legitimate scope and as the defender of simple human dignity. But is she really so innocent and pure? What if there is a dark side to her? What if Creon, the representative of state power, also has a valuable point to make? And what if both Antigone and Creon are part of a problem that only a popular intervention can confront?
Žižek's rewriting of this classic play confronts these issues in a practical way: not by theorizing about them, but by imagining an Antigone in which, at a crucial moment, the action takes a different turn, an Antigone along the lines of Run, Lola, Run or of Brecht's learning plays.
