Описание: This is the third volume of Euripides plays in new translation. It contains the three great war plays Trojan Women, Hecuba, and Andromache, in which Euripides subjects the sufferings of Troy`s survivors to a harrowing examination. The horrific brutality which both women and children undergo evokes a response of unparalleled intensity in the playwright whom Aristotle called the most tragic of poets.

Описание: Der pseudo-Euripideische Rhesos ist die einzige vollständig erhaltene griechische Tragödie, die auf einer Episode der Ilias (Buch 10) basiert, und ein einmaliges Zeugnis für die Geschichte der Gattung im 4. Jahrhundert v. Chr. Die Ausgabe mit Einleitung und Kommentar bietet einen griechischen Text, für den die wichtigsten Quellen zum Teil neu verglichen und um ein Papyrusfragment erweitert wurden. Ein Testimonienapparat ergänzt die Angaben zur direkten Überlieferung und hilft, die antike und mittelalterliche Rezeption des Dramas zu verfolgen. Einleitung und Kommentar behandeln sowohl textkritische Probleme, Metrik, Sprache und Stil als auch allgemeine Fragen der Interpretation, wie die Vorlagen des Dichters, Struktur, Dramaturgie und die historischen und mythologisch-religiösen Bezüge der Handlung. Neben Epos, Lyrik und Drama der archaischen und klassischen Zeit werden, soweit möglich, auch Tragikerfragmente und Interpolationen des 4. Jahrhunderts v. Chr. zum Vergleich herangezogen. Das Buch wendet sich an Wissenschaftler und fortgeschrittene Studenten, die an Rhesos selbst oder einzelnen Phänomenen dramatischer Dichtung interessiert sind. Thematisch getrennte Indices erleichtern die Orientierung.

Описание: Euripides' Medea is one of the most often read, studied and performed of all Greek tragedies. A searingly cruel story of a woman's brutal revenge on a husband who has rejected her for a younger and richer bride, it is unusual among Greek dramas for its acute portrayal of female psychology. Medea can appear at once timeless and strikingly modern. Yet, the play is very much a product of the political and social world of fifth century Athens and an understanding of its original context, as well as a consideration of the responses of later ages, is crucial to appreciating this work and its legacy. This collection of essays by leading academics addresses these issues, exploring key themes such as revenge, character, mythology, the end of the play, the chorus and Medea's role as a witch. Other essays look at the play's context, religious connotations, stagecraft and reception. The essays are accompanied by David Stuttard's English translation of the play, which is performer-friendly, accessible yet accurate and closely faithful to the original.

Описание:
In this provocative book, Pietro Pucci explores what he sees as Euripides's revolutionary literary art. While scholars have long pointed to subversive elements in Euripides’s plays, Pucci goes a step further in identifying a Euripidean program of enlightened thought enacted through carefully wrought textual strategies. The driving force behind this program is Euripides’s desire to subvert the traditional anthropomorphic view of the Greek gods—a belief system that in his view strips human beings of their independence and ability to act wisely and justly. Instead of fatuous religious beliefs, Athenians need the wisdom and the strength to navigate the challenges and difficulties of life.Throughout his lifetime, Euripides found himself the target of intense criticism and ridicule. He was accused of promoting new ideas that were considered destructive. Like his contemporary, Socrates, he was considered a corrupting influence. No wonder, then, that Euripides had to carry out his revolution "under cover." Pucci lays out the various ways the playwright skillfully inserted his philosophical principles into the text through innovative strategies of plot development, language and composition, and production techniques that subverted the traditionally staged anthropomorphic gods.

Описание:
With its ribald chorus of ithyphallic, half-man / half-horse creatures, satyr drama was a peculiar part of the Athenian theatrical experience. Performed three times each year after a trilogy of tragedies, it was an integral part of the 5th- and 4th-century City Dionysia, a large festival in honour of the god Dionysus. Euripides: Cyclops is the first book-length study of this fascinating genre's only complete, extant play, a theatrical version of Odysseus' encounter with the monster Polyphemus.
Shaw begins with a look at the history of the genre, following its development from early 6th-century religious processions up to the Hellenistic era. He then offers a comprehensive analysis of the Cyclops' plot and performance, using the text (alongside ancient literary fragments and visual evidence) to determine the original viewing experience: the stage, masks, costumes, actions and emotions. A detailed examination of the text reveals that Euripides associates and distinguishes his version of the story from previous iterations of the myth, especially book nine of Homer's Odyssey. Euripides handles many of the same themes as his predecessors, but he updates the Cyclops for the Athenian stage, adapting his work to reflect and comment upon contemporary religious, philosophical and literary-musical trends.
