1. Sofokles

Oidipous en Antigone

Oidipous en Antigone presenteert drie meeslepende tragedies over lot, rechtvaardigheid en moraliteit. Via extreme situaties confronteert Sofokles zijn lezers met figuren in wie wij ons vandaag de dag nog kunnen herkennen. In Koning Oidipous ontdekt de tragische held de schokkende waarheid over zijn afkomst, terwijl Oidipous in Kolonos het ontroerende slotstuk van zijn existentiële zoektocht onthult. Antigone draait om de strijd tussen persoonlijke gewetensvrijheid en de wetten van het regime. Alles speelt zich af binnen het spanningsveld tussen familie en staat, tussen macht en hoogmoed, menselijke autonomie en goddelijke almacht. Sofokles wist zijn toehoorders te verzoenen met het onontkoombare lot, dankzij de gratie, de harmonie en de rust die spreken uit zijn verzen en gezangen. Dankzij de sprankelende, nieuwe vertaling van meestervertaler Patrick Lateur kunnen wij nog steeds van de intense drama’s genieten.

2921 Sophocles

2921 Sophocles is a small main belt asteroid, which was discovered by Cornelis Johannes van Houten, Ingrid van Houten-Groeneveld and Tom Gehrels in 1960. It is named after Sophocles, the ancient Greek tragic dramatist. Little is known about Sophocles beyond its orbital parameters and its 4.8-hour period of rotation. Asteroids (from Greek ¿¿¿¿¿ 'star' and ¿¿¿¿¿ 'like, in form') are a class of Small Solar System Bodies in orbit around the Sun. They have also been called planetoids, especially the larger ones. These terms have historically been applied to any astronomical object orbiting the Sun that did not show the disk of a planet and was not observed to have the characteristics of an active comet, but as small objects in the outer Solar System were discovered, their volatile-based surfaces were found to more closely resemble comets, and so were often distinguished from traditional asteroids.
