Abstracts

All new receptions of ancient theme, whether in the arts or social action, provide a new perspective of understanding of relation between an ancient Greek and a man of today. The paper examines the interpretation of the character of Antigone from Sophocles's tragedy by contemporary French female troupe Les Antigones, which uses her as a symbol of their activities and thus gives her new – current meaning. The paper is based on the assumption that tradition and reality are the main factors influencing dramatic interpretation of the text and interpretation itself - the aspects of time have impact directly on content as well as formal analysis. The paper brings more transparency into the traditions of interpretation that directly or indirectly determines the reception of Antigone's character as a representative of the Les Antigones activities and focuses on the non-artistic context, which determined the formation of this troupe.
