This volume brings together archeologists, art historians,
philologists, literary scholars, political scientists, and
historians to articulate the ways in which western Greek theater
was distinct from that of the Greek mainland and, at the same time,
to investigate how the two traditions interacted. The chapters
intersect and build on each other in their pursuit of a number of
shared questions and themes: the place of theater in the cultural
life of Sicilian and South Italian 'colonial cities;' theater as a
method of cultural self-identification; shared mythological themes
in performance texts and theatrical vase-painting; and the
reflection and analysis of Sicilian and South Italian theater in
the work of Athenian philosophers and playwrights. Together, the
essays explore central problems in the study of western Greek
theater. By gathering a number of different perspectives and
methods, this volume offers the first wide-ranging examination of
this hitherto neglected history.
