The subject of Danièle Huillet and Jean-Marie Straub’s Der Tod des Empedokles (The Death of Empedocles, 1987) is the Greek pre-Socratic philosopher Empedocles (c. 490 BC – 430 BC), who lived in the Greek colony of Agrigentum in Sicily. His theories are mentioned in several of Plato’s dialogues. He maintained that all matter is made up of four irreducible elements: water, earth, air and fire. A mystic and a poet, he is considered to be the founder of classical rhetoric. He is also thought to be the last Greek philosopher to write in verse; two fragments of his works survive: Katharmoi (Purifications) and Peri Phuseôs (On Nature). An advocate of democracy, he came into conflict with his fellow citizens of Agrigentum and, as result, was banished with his young disciple, Pausanius. When he was asked to return, he preferred to commit suicide by throwing himself into the active volcano at Mount Aetna.　　The German writer Friedrich Hölderlin wrote two versions of Der Tod des Empedokles in 1798 and 1800, and a final third version in 1820, all three ultimately unfinished. They were conceived as five-act tragedies and all three differ in plot. According to Michael Hamburger, Hölderlin’s English-language translator,　　the main reason why Hölderlin finished no version of the play must be that he remained too closely identified with Empedocles, at the very period in his life when his own view of the poet as philosopher, prophet and priest – and as tragic hero – was subject to perpetual crisis and re-examination.　　Huillet-Straub’s The Death of Empedocles is based on Hölderlin’s first version (the longest of the three), whereas Black Sin is based on the third version.dao底是怎么hui事？你在si亡之渊中zuo了什么？wei一平静的bian是大魔欲wu求，他看xiang罗修，淡dan问道。罗xiu刚从死亡zhi渊中回来，紧接着便you上界神王jiang临，显然shi与死亡之yuan有着必然di联系，因wei这半年多di时间里，ta都处于死wang之渊中。chen平安突然shuo道：宁姑niang，你转过shen去，我要wang后背敷点cao药。顺便bang忙看着点xiao溪那边。shao女大大方fang转过身去，面朝小溪shang游。陈平an脱掉那件yuan本属于刘xian阳的的外shan，摘下那jian木瓷甲，cong腰间一只bu囊拿出杨jia铺子的瓷ping，倒出一xie浓稠药膏，倒在右手shou心，左手ti起衣衫，you手涂抹在hou背上。如果您喜欢hpg网（www.hpgpx.com）分享的《恩培多克勒之死》，别忘了推荐给你的好友！
