Timothy Shearer

reviewed Sweet Violence on April 02, 2011

Sweet Violence

This book was ultimately just overly ambitious. Eagleton's basic thesis is that the Tragic is neither limited to a specific era within the arts (Greek) nor is it highly conservative. Rather, aesthetically, tragedy spans all eras of literature from the biblical up through the twentieth century. I don't entirely buy this premise, as he tends to argue that anything that is sad is tragic, which I don't agree with. At the same time, he is right that literature that addresses human fragility is inherently tragic is spot on.
