Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Aspects of the Dramatic Art of Aeschylus 2this statement must be understood in the light of the following reservation. In three or four cases in his earlier plays Aeschylus, merely for scenic considerations, brought on an actor with naive free dom; that is to say, in these few cases he did not feel constrained to make clear just why his actor should appear at the given place at the given time. - See (i) Atossa's entrance (persians, Out of her anxiety for Xerxes she tells the chorus she has come for advice. To that extent her coming is motived. But why should she have come to the particular place, Darius' tomb? (for a discussion on scenic arrangements in the Persians see Dignan, The Idle Actor in Aeschylus, pp. 16 and 17, where the references are cited).-see (2) Xerxes' en .

Download or read book Greek Tragedy Classic Reprint written by J. T. Sheppard and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-07-27 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greek Tragedy His book does not pretend to be a summary of known facts relating to Greek Tragedy. Nor is it, except incidentally, an essay in critical apprecia tion. Its aim is to help modern readers to enjoy Greek plays. For that reason stress has been laid on ideas and conventions which are not likely to be at first sight obvious to an English reader. That is why more space is given to Aeschylus than to either of his successors. That is also the explanation of the brief allusion which is made to some of the greatest of Greek tragedies. The Oedipus Tyrannus, for instance, depends for its effect upon qualities which are apparent, even in translation, to all readers who care for poetry and drama. It may be added that this book will be of little use unless the reader will turn to the plays them selves, either in the original or at least in a translation. Finally, remarks which are made in regard to one play often apply with equal force to many others. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Oresteia of Aeschylus: Agamemnon, Choephori, Eumenides The fragments of Aeschylus' s predecessors are too scanty to give us any clear idea of the debt he may have owed to them. But it seems probable that drama, as one of the supreme forms of art, was the creation of his own unique personal genius Within the limits of a short introduction no adequate account can be given of his art, or of its rela tions to the plays of his rivals and successors. I must confine myself to a few remarks upon the traditional drama tic forms which he inherited and developed, and upon my own methods of translation.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Prometheus Bound of AEschylus One of the features of Greek litera ture is its regular and harmonious development. First comes the rise of the epic; when this form has been thoroughly worked over, lyric poetry expands and becomes predominant; out of the lyric grows the drama and last of all comes the splendid harvest of prose. Yet in one sense the lyric is in Greece, as elsewhere, the mother of all poetical forms. The epos is but a devel Opment and interknitting of the old songs of the minstrels celebrating the deeds of heroes and ancestors; the drama grew directly from the chants, now passionate and now ribald, sung in honor of Dionysus. And in both cases the genius of a single man was so predominant as to establish once and forever the model which all were to follow. What Homer did for epic, Aeschylus accomplished for tragic poetry.
