The Pronomos Vase is the single most important piece of pictorial
evidence for ancient theatre to have survived from ancient Greece.
It depicts an entire theatrical chorus and cast along with the
celebrated musician Pronomos, in the presence of their patron god,
Dionysos. In this collection of essays, illustrated with nearly 60
drawings and photographs, leading specialists from a variety of
disciplines tackle the critical questions posed by this complex hub
of evidence. The discussion covers a wide range of perspectives and
issues, including the artist's oeuvre; the pottery market; the
relation of this piece to other artistic, and especially
celebratory, artefacts; the political and cultural contexts of the
world that it was produced in; the identification of figures
portrayed on it: and the significance of the Pronomos Vase as
theatrical evidence. The volume offers not only the most recent
scholarship on the vase but also some ground-breaking
interpretations of it.
