    At the April 2006 Pittsburgh ComiCon, I presented a lecture that compared the Prequel Trilogy to classical Greek Tragedy. I wrote a paper based on this idea for the website, Saga Journal.

    The article can be found here

    I'd love to hear what folks think about the idea of the PT as a modern example of classical Greek Tragedy and Anakin Skywalker as a Tragic Hero.

    Spike Edit: You can find a discussion on this topic here: Anakin as a Tragic Hero- Did it all fall into place?
