In recent years, classicists have begun aggressively to explore the
impact of performance on the ways in which Greek and Roman plays
are constructed and appreciated, both in their original performance
context and in reperformances down to the present day. While never
losing sight of the playscripts, it is necessary to adopt a more
inclusive point of view, one integrating insights from archaeology,
art, history, performance theory, theatre semiotics, theatrical
praxis, and modern performance reception. This volume contributes
to the restoration of a much-needed balance between performance and
text: it is devoted to exploring how performance-related
considerations (including stage business, masks, costumes, props,
performance space, and stage-sets) help us attain an enhanced
appreciation of ancient theatre.
A classic reprint from 1918 giving the history of the Bolsheviks
& I.W.W. Today, locked behind several sets of steel bars in one
of those dungeons Capitalism has prepared for workers who challenge
its rule, the writer watches the play of social forces in the
greatest of crises ever yet facing this stage of civilization.
Someone has said that the people of any given period do not grasp
the significance of events transpiring under their eyes; that
events are only historically understood as they move into the past
and afford perspective. It may be that my interested isolation, my
severance from active participation in the great; drama, affords
such perspective. But, be that as it may, the writer feels
constrained to point out what, in his opinion, is the lesson to the
workers contained in recent and current history what means that
inspiring light that penetrates even the prison windows and floods
my cell with the glory of the Red Dawn?
