Chanter is just not involved to reveal the invalidity of Irigaray’s or Butler’s readings of the Sophoclean textual content, but to point out how these readings are however complicit with one other form of oppression - and stay blind to issues of slavery and of race. Chanter convincingly shows that the language of slavery - doulos (a household slave) and douleuma (a ‘slave thing’) - is there in Sophocles’ text, regardless of its notable absence from many modern translations, adaptations and commentaries. On condition that these themes have been translated out of most contemporary variations and adaptations of the play, Irigaray and Butler can hardly be blamed for this failure of their interpretations.
