Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Athenian Tragedy: A Study in Popular Art The aim of these pages is to clear the way to a better understanding of Greek tragedy. They are intended for any who are reading the plays with serious interest; for those who read them only in translation all Greek terms are fully explained, and the few quotations are given in English. As these plays constitute the earliest drama of the world, outgrowth of another society than ours, a certain remoteness is what first impresses one, even if one feels, beneath what is antique and strange, a peculiar freshness and power. I should like to aid in clearing away that sense of remoteness, to aid in revealing the perennial beauty and vigor. Prominence is given to a side which it is often taken for granted needs little or no elucidation. Dramatic art includes much besides text; it is largely in what we have to add in imagination that the remoteness of Attic tragedy lies. The earlier chapters therefore include some pages on the nature of drama and on the peculiarities of Attic drama. Some may think too much space is given to theory, and again too much to elementary matters. I hope those to whom such matters are elementary and familiar will have patience, for the sake of others who may be grateful for a statement of some of the foundations of criticism. All too few are in fact familiar with those foundations. Where can one more fitly make their acquaintance, or review them, than in studying masterpieces of the earliest dramatic school? But one can easily begin with Chapter II, coming back to these general discussions later, if one likes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Reimagining Greek Tragedy on the American Stage written by Helene P. Foley and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2014-06-26 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the emergence of Greek tragedy on the American stage from the nineteenth century to the present. Despite the gap separating the world of classical Greece from our own, Greek tragedy has provided a fertile source for some of the most innovative American theater. Helene P. Foley shows how plays like Oedipus Rex and Medea have resonated deeply with contemporary concerns and controversies—over war, slavery, race, the status of women, religion, identity, and immigration. Although Greek tragedy was often initially embraced for its melodramatic possibilities, by the twentieth century it became a vehicle not only for major developments in the history of American theater and dance but also for exploring critical tensions in American cultural and political life. Drawing on a wide range of sources—archival, video, interviews, and reviews—Reimagining Greek Tragedy on the American Stage provides the most comprehensive treatment of the subject available.

Download or read book A Guide to Greek Tragedy written by Lewis Campbell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to Greek Tragedy: For English Readers The present volume does not profess to be a repertory of facts and theories respecting the Greek Drama. For such results of learned and archæological research I would confidently refer the reader to Haigh's Attic Theatre, or, if a German scholar, to A. Müller's Bühnenalterthumer, and to the books there cited. My hope has been that by recording impressions made on myself by somewhat close and long-continued study of the originals, I might assist the reader of Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides, whether in Greek or English, to enter more completely into the spirit and intention of their works. Greek tragedy, as an interpretation of human life, contains much which the world cannot afford to lose. It carries an imperfect lesson relative to a transitional age, yet one that is of lasting import, and inseparable from the vehicle of dramatic art in which it is couched.
