Summary
The pathos created by threats to children is a notable feature of Greek tragedy, but is this pathos the limit of these child characters' significance? This volume proposes a new paradigm for the study of children in tragedy that recasts them as theatrically complex creations and emphasises their dangerous potential as the future adults of myth.
