  • Greek Fragments in Postmodern Frames

    Rewriting Tragedy 1970-2005

    Series series Classical Presences
    Greek Fragments in Postmodern Frames takes as its subject adaptation of Greek tragedy in the last decades, arguing that rewritings of Greek tragic texts in this period can be used as a tool to uncover a significant dialogue with postmodernism. Despite the large number of staged and written adaptations of Greek tragic texts in recent years, the idea still persists that tragedy is incompatible with ... Leer más

  • Landscape and the Spaces of Metaphor in Ancient Literary Theory and Criticism

    de Nancy Worman ...
    This study explores a previously uncharted area of ancient literary theory and criticism: the ancient landscapes (such as the Ilissus river in Athens and Mount Helicon) that generate metaphors for distinguishing styles, which dovetail with ancient conceptions of metaphor as itself spatial and mobile. Ancient writers most often coordinate stylistic features with country settings, where ... Leer más

  • Euripides: Cyclops

    A Satyr Play

    Series series Companions to Greek and Roman Tragedy
    With its ribald chorus of ithyphallic, half-man / half-horse creatures, satyr drama was a peculiar part of the Athenian theatrical experience. Performed three times each year after a trilogy of tragedies, it was an integral part of the 5th- and 4th-century City Dionysia, a large festival in honour of the god Dionysus. Euripides: Cyclops is the first book-length study of this fascinating genre's ... Leer más

    Over the past decades there has been something of a revolution in the way we view classical drama generally and Euripides in particular.

    Series series Routledge Revivals
    That the works of the ancient tragedians still have an immediate and profound appeal surely needs no demonstration, yet the modern reader continually stumbles across concepts which are difficult to interpret or relate to – moral pollution, the authority of oracles, classical ideas of geography – as well as the names of unfamiliar legendary and mythological figures.A New Companion to Greek Tragedy ...

  • Aristophanes' Thesmophoriazusae

    Philosophizing Theatre and the Politics of Perception in Late Fifth-Century Athens

    Series series Cambridge Classical Studies
    Aristophanes' comic masterpiece Thesmophoriazusae has long been recognized amongst the plays of Old Comedy for its deconstruction of tragic theatricality. This book reveals that this deconstruction is grounded not simply in Aristophanes' wider engagement with tragic realism. Rather, it demonstrates that from its outset Aristophanes' play draws upon Parmenides' philosophical revelations concerning ... Leer más
