Abstract

The present contribution focuses on two previously unstudied progymnasmata penned by the 12th-century teacher Nikephoros Basilakes. The analysis aims to show how Basilakes discusses the role and importance of ancient tragedy by elaborating on two gnomai taken from Sophocles’ plays. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
