What is Vision And Stagecraft In Sophocles about?

The Stagecraft of the classical Attic dramatists has been largely neglected until recent years. This discussion offers the first comprehensive interpretation of this aspect of Sophocles' oeuvre, in particular the special relationship between stage spectacle and the poetic imagery of sight. The theme of blindness and sight, physical, mental and moral, dominates the plays, overlapping with that of illusion and reality, and determines the visual presentation of Sophocles' characters and their actions on the stage.
