This series of essays by prominent academics and practitioners
investigates in detail the history of performance in the classical
Greek and Roman world. Beginning with the earliest examples of
???dramatic??? presentation in the epic cycles and reaching through
to the latter days of the Roman Empire and beyond, the Companion
covers many aspects of these broad presentational societies.
Dramatic performances that are text-based form only one part of
cultures where presentation is a major element of all social and
political life. Individual chapters range across a two thousand
year timescale, and include specific chapters on acting traditions,
masks, properties, playing places, festivals, religion and drama,
comedy and society, and commodity, concluding with the dramatic
legacy of myth and the modern media. The book addresses the needs
of students of drama and classics, as well as anyone with an
interest in the theatre??'s history and practice.
