Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1906 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER VI THE LYRICS PREAMBLE IF we were to listen to Aristophanes, it would not take long to pass judgment on Euripides' lyrics. We should feel nothing but scorn for those short verses, full of repetitions and interjections, whose pretentious and unoriginal music suggests successively " songs of the banquet, Carian flutes, dance-tunes, and funeral dirges," and which deserve no better accompaniment than that of " the castanets."1 But if we remember that approbation, and approbation long continued, is evidence of indisputable worth in case of products of the mind, we shall be slow to give credence to Aristophanes. The anecdote of the Greeks in Sicily who gave a bit of bread and water as alms to the Athenians who were able to sing to them passages from Euripides might, if it were isolated, be set down to the credulity of Plutarch.2 But we read of a writer of the middle comedy, Axionicus, who made fun of the music lovers who were crazy about the tunes of our poet and did not wish to hear any others.2 And later we have Dionysius of Halicarnassus, who stops to remark upon the way in which the first words of the parodos of the Orestes were sung.4 Finally Lucian relates the lively story of the performance of the Andromeda at Abdera,6 and speaks of the monody of the Hecuba as a passage that everybody must know from having heard it in the theatre. The long vogue which these citations indicate7 could not be accounted for had not the songs which enjoyed it been marked by poetic and musical qualities--perhaps chiefly musical--that delighted both mind and ear. It also necessitates the conclusion that Euripides brought the technique of dramatic music to such perfection that after him this music was no longer susceptible of important changes or...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Dramas of Euripides The present volume of essays is intended as a contribution to literature, not to classical philo logy. The writer's appeal is not to Greek schol ars, except for unsparing criticism wherever he has missed the meaning of his original. His chief desire is to make this group of ancient dramas in telligible and interesting to the wider circle of men and women who are lovers of good literature. In cidentally, indeed, he could not refrain from striv ing to enforce the central article of his own creed that in the drama, as in all the other creative arts, we may demand from the artist not a mere mirror of life in its more vulgar aspects, but rather aid in shaping and imitating our own loftiest and noblest ideals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Euripides and Mr. Bernard Shaw It is notoriously hard or impossible for any man to describe, perhaps even to understand, the history and spirit of his own generation. To observe a landscape one must ascend a hill; to comprehend a historical period one must be withdrawn from it in time. A man in a forest cannot see the wood for the trees; the principle and conditions which govern our contemporaries and ourselves are apt to be hidden from us by their very pervasiveness and proximity. But the present epoch fortunately can be understood by those who live in it better than many with the help of a strong con trast, precisely the contrast which it is my present business to indicate. Our history for the last hundred years hardly presents that continuity, that gradual harmonious progress, for which we have been taught to look in the march of human affairs. There is a real gulf between us and the middle of the nineteenth century. In England, at any rate, the march of affairs broke into a kind of hand-gallop, ending. With a leap over a chasm which can hardly be defined into a morass from which we have not yet found our way.

Download or read book A Guide to Greek Tragedy written by Lewis Campbell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 344 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 archaeological research I would confidently refer the reader to Haigh's Attic T/zeatre, or, if a German scholar, to A. Muller's 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.

And those of us who have in our time glowed at all with the religion of realism, will probably feel in it many of the qualities of youth. Not, of course, the more normal, sensuous, romantic youth, the youth of Romeo and Juliet, but another kind - crude, austere, passionate - the youth of the poet who is also a sceptic and a devotee of truth, who so hates the conventionally and falsely beautiful that he is apt to be unduly ascetic towards beauty itself.

It may be hoped that, with his edition of the Athenian poet, a new epoch begins for the estima tion of him by classical as well as English readers. Mr Paley evidently regards Euripides in a very similar light to that taken of him by Ben J onson - that he is sometimes peccant, as he is most times perfect.
