This book examines tragedy and tragic philosophy from the Greeks through Shakespeare to the present day. Using postcolonial literature, it explores key themes in the links between suifering and ethics. Under the singular and fertile rubric of tragedy, Ato Quayson reconceives how we think of world literature. He draws from many key works - Oedipus Rex, Philoctetes, Medea, Hamlet, Macbeth, and King Lear - to establish the main contours of tragedy. Quayson uses Shakespeare’s Othello, Chinua Achebe, Wole Soyinka, Taveb Salih, Arundhati Roy, Toni Morrison, Samuel Beckett, and ]. M. Coetzee to qualify and expand the purview and terms by which Western traged}· has long been understood. Drawing on texts such as the Poetics and Tlte Nicomachcan Ethics, and augmenting them with Frantz Fanon and the Akan concept of musuo (taboo), Quayson formulates a supple, insightful new theory of ethical choice and the impediments against it. This is a major book from a leading critic in literary studies.
