title = "Bacchylides playing tragic",
abstract = "This paper focuses on features in Bacchylides{\textquoteright} poetry that have been mainly associated with the tragic genre: human error, the ignorance of tragic characters, the audience{\textquoteright}s privileged knowledge at a tragic and lyric performance and its activation, tragic irony, and the audience{\textquoteright}s participation in the completion of mythological narratives. As evidence of Bacchylides{\textquoteright} tragic aura I analyse the figures of Deianeira and Heracles in Odes 5 and 16 in connection with the story in Sophocles{\textquoteright} Trachiniae; the resemblance of the structure of Ode 18 with encounters with the tragic chorus and how it creates internal and external audiences; questions of closures and narratives endings.",
