The Reception of Aeschylus' Plays through Shifting Models and
Frontiers addresses the need for an integrated approach to the
study and staging of Aeschylus' plays. It offers an invigorating
discussion about the transmission and reception of his plays and
explores the interrelated tasks of editing, translating, adapting
and remaking them for the page and the stage. The volume seeks to
reshape current debates about the place of his tragedies in the
curriculum and the repertory in a scholarly manner that is
accessible and innovative. Each chapter makes a significant and
original contribution to its selected topic, but the collective
strength of the volume rests on its simultaneous appeal to readers
in theatre studies, classical studies, performance studies,
comparative studies, translation studies, adaptation studies, and,
naturally, reception studies.
The largest and most comprehensive annotated bibliography of works
published in English about Greece, its people, and modern times.
Greece in Modern Times indexes nearly 4,000 books and articles in
22 disciplines published during the twentieth century. The covered
texts illustrate the involvement of the broad areas of arts &
humanities and behavioral & social sciences in Greece's modern
development, from roughly the turn of the eighteenth century to the
turn of the twenty-first century. The individual disciplines
covered include art, drama, philosophy, theology & religion,
anthropology, economics, education, and public policy &
management. Disciplinary categories are subdivided into smaller
thematic subsections. Entries are cross-referenced, and when
appropriate they point to other texts not included in this
particular volume. Greece in Modern Times offers a research path to
students exploring any aspect of Modern Greece and a great
reference for librarians looking to update any library's Greek
studies collection. Also useful for scholars in Greek studies,
classica, and modern European history.
