The Masks of Tragedy: Essays on Six Greek Dramas
ISBN: 9780292741614 / Angielski / Miękka / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "What matters about a play is not the extent to which it is like any other play, but the way in which it is different," writes Thomas G. Rosenmeyer.

Playing God: Medieval Mysteries on the Modern Stage
ISBN: 9781442623712 / Angielski / Miękka / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Religious drama was one of the most vital art forms of the medieval era.

Since that power was abolished in 1968, medieval religious, or... Religious drama was one of the most vital art forms of the medieval era.

ISBN: 9781498511247 / Angielski / Miękka / 126 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

In the third and fourth chapters, the focus moves to those junctures in the dramas that Aristotle considered crucial to a complex plot - recognitions and sudden reversals -, and shows how they are presented in...
