<span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:#191919">Seizing on the anachronism inherent in every act of reading while refusing the dichotomy between ancient text and modern reception, this paper shows how Greek tragedy can speak to us about the pandemic as well as
the crises it has aggravated and come to epitomize. Re-reading Antigone in light of Saidiya Hartman’s <em><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0cm">Litany for Grieving Sisters</span></em> and W. E. B. Du Bois’s <em><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0cm">The
Comet</span></em> helps us conceptualize the relationship between tragedy and the end of the world, or the end of the human, a prospect that the pandemic and climate change have made palpable. More importantly, this affective and interpretive re-engagement
with Sophocles’ play might allow us to locate imaginative forms of being beyond extraction and beyond human extinction.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
