Euripides: Iphigenia at Aulis
ISBN: 9781911226475 / Angielski / Miękka / 650 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is the first English edition with commentary of the play since 1891. Euripides died before completing this late masterpiece and it was prepared for its enthusiastically received first performance by his son or nephew.

After Agamemnon has discovered that the Trojan War can only be fought if he sacrifices his daughter Iphigenia, we witness the break-down of the most dysfunctional family in Greek mythology. The characters are expressively and movingly...

Behind the Mask: Character and Society in Menander
ISBN: 9781472534927 / Angielski / Twarda / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is the first study of Menander, one of the most popular of ancient dramatists, who wrote over 100 plays. Although most have been lost, what survives was only rediscovered in the 20th century, and his work has not yet had the scholarly attention it deserves. Seeking to address this gap, Angela Heap introduces her reader to the texts, archaeology and performance of Menander. Using the remarkable finds on the Aeolian island of Lipari as a starting point, she explores the mystery of the loss of the plays, their rediscovery, and key questions surrounding the transmission of these and other...

Emulation on the Shakespearean Stage
ISBN: 9781138248809 / Angielski / Miękka / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The English Renaissance has long been considered a period with a particular focus on imitation; however, much related scholarship has misunderstood or simply marginalized the significance of emulative practices and theories in the period. This work uses the interactions of a range of English Renaissance plays with ancient and Renaissance rhetorics to analyze the conflicted uses of emulation in the period (including the theory and praxis of rhetorical imitatio, humanist notions of exemplarity, and the stage s purported ability to move spectators to emulate depicted characters). This book...

The three plays of this book (Oedipus the King (also called Oedipus Tyrannus or by its Latin title Oedipus Rex), Oedipus at Colonus and Antigone), also known as the Theban plays, concern the fate of Thebes during and after the reign of King Oedipus.

Tragedy's Endurance: Performances of Greek Tragedies and Cultural Identity in Germany Since 1800
ISBN: 9780199651634 / Angielski / Twarda / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume sets out a novel approach to theatre historiography, presenting the history of performances of Greek tragedies in Germany since 1800 as the history of the evolving cultural identity of the educated middle class throughout that period. Philhellenism and theatromania took hold in this milieu amidst attempts to banish the heavily French-influenced German court culture of the mid-eighteenth century, and by 1800 performances of Greek tragedies had effectively become the German answer to the French Revolution. Tragedy's subsequent endurance on the German stage is mapped here through...

ISBN: 9781138180031 / Angielski / Twarda / 412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This classic work not only records developments in the form and style of Greek drama, it also analyses the reasons for these changes.

This classic work not only records developments in the form and style of Greek drama, it also analyses the reasons for these changes. It provides illu...
