Beyond the Fifth Century brings together 13 scholars from various
disciplines (Classics, Ancient History, Mediaeval Studies) to
explore interactions with Greek tragedy from the 4th century BCE up
to the Middle Ages. The volume breaks new ground in several ways.
Its chronological scope encompasses periods that are not usually
part of research on tragedy reception, especially the Hellenistic
period, late antiquity and the Middle Ages. The volume also
considers not just performance reception but various other modes of
reception, between different literary genres and media
(inscriptions, vase paintings, recording technology). There is a
pervasive interest in interactions between tragedy and
society-at-large, such as festival culture and entertainment (both
public and private), education, religious practice, even
life-style. Finally, the volume features studies of a comparative
nature which focus less on genealogical connections (although such
may be present) but rather on the study of equivalences.
