Popis: Faced with the bare comment that Aristotle makes regarding the incorporation of a third actor by Sophocles to the tragedy, interpretive criticism agrees in understanding that this innovation enables sophisticated dramatic effects. The purpose of this paper is to attempt to specify the role of this third actor on stage in Sophocles’ Ajax and, therefore, what this sophisticated dramatic effect consists in.
