Avant la lettre

原声例句
Simon Critchley - Tragedy the Greeks and Us

Like Euripides, Sophocles seems to be quite deliberately both subverting the dramatic conventions of the Oresteia and unraveling avant la lettre Aristotle's understanding of tragedy.

与欧里庇得斯一样, 索福克勒斯似乎是在蓄意颠覆《奥瑞斯忒亚》的戏剧惯例, 并阐明亚里士多德对悲剧的理解。
