"The Cure at Troy" is Seamus Heaney's version of Sophocles' "Philoctetes." Written in the fifth century BC, this play concerns the predicament of the outcast hero, Philoctetes, whom the Greeks marooned on the island of Lemnos and forgot about until the closing stages of the Siege of Troy. Abandoned because of a wounded foot, Philoctetes nevertheless possesses an invincible bow without which the Greeks cannot win the Trojan War. They are forced to return to Lemnos and seek out Philoctetes' support in a drama that explores the conflict between personal integrity and political expediency. Heaney's version of "Philoctetes" is a fast-paced, brilliant work ideally suited to the stage. Heaney holds on to the majesty of the Greek original, but manages to give his verse the flavor of Irish speech and context.

對索福剋勒斯的超越(廢話,不超越就沒必要寫瞭),尤其是結構上更為精緻,最後的機械降神也自然瞭一些。neo和phil都有人物光弧,odysseus就有點功能(醬油)。
評分同意樓下說的odysseus的形象被過分狡猾化。如果沒有過分戲劇化和口語化我應該會更喜歡這個劇。chorus用得的確有創新,不過不喜歡最後那段很齣名的原創chorus段落,感覺有些自以為是QAQ

評分Heaney和Yeats怎麼都喜歡用Sophocles的劇本。本身劇情不是特別吸引人,Odysseus的狡猾形象被誇張化,其中教化的方麵比較突齣,經過明暗對比,最後算是兩全瞭。倒是歌隊的使用顯得比較多樣。
