Menander in Contexts
ISBN: 9780415843713 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The comedies of the Athenian dramatist Menander (c. 342-291 BC) and his contemporaries were the ultimate source of a Western tradition of light drama that has continued to the present day.

Aeschylus was the dramatist who made Athenian tragedy one of the world's great art-forms. In this completely revised and updated edition of his book Alan H.
