最近演出的《奥瑞斯泰亚》是个有历史意义的希腊悲剧,因为它正面展现了西方法制的建立。但是近年来美国这个戏和法律本身都遭到越来越多的质疑,常常与法律的公正原则相反,戏剧—包括剧本和戏剧化的表演—有时候吹捧不公的法律,有时俟又帮助犯法者。因此有必要重新认识戏剧与法律的关系。 The recent performance of Oristea is a historic Greek tragedy as it shows the establishment of the Western legal system. But in recent years the U.S. drama and the law itself have been increasingly questioned, often contrary to the principle of fairness in the arts. Drama - including plays and dramatic performances - sometimes toughers unfair laws and sometimes assists offenders . Therefore, it is necessary to re-understand the relationship between drama and law.
