A Cultural History of Theatre in Antiquity
Author: Martin RevermannPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1350135291
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
Theatre was at the very heart of culture in Graeco-Roman civilizations and its influence permeated across social and class boundaries. The theatrical genres of tragedy, comedy, satyr play, mime and pantomime operate in Antiquity alongside the conception of theatre as both an entertainment for the masses and a vehicle for intellectual, political and artistic expression. Drawing together contributions from scholars in Classics and Theatre Studies, this volume uniquely examines the Greek and Roman cultural spheres in conjunction with one another rather than in isolation. Each chapter takes a different theme as its focus: institutional frameworks; social functions; sexuality and gender; the environment of theatre; circulation; interpretations; communities of production; repertoire and genres; technologies of performance; and knowledge transmission.

Book Description
Excerpt from Chapters in the History of Actors and Acting in Ancient Greece: Together With a Prosopographia Histrionum Graecorum The study of the technical terms employed to designate the actor and his function was found to be necessary for the sake of gaining a clear conception of the history and meaning of each term, and partly in order that the confusion regarding some of them that has arisen in recent years might be dissipated. The publication of Wilhelm's important work and the discussions to which it has given rise have rendered unnecessary a large part of the chapter on the Athenian actors' contests as originally outlined. We have accordingly confined ourselves here to a brief presenta tion Of the facts which have been established by others, discussing at length only the still uncertain date of the introduction of the comic actors' contest into the City Dionysia. In the second chapter some data are brought together which bear on the sub ject of the specialization of actors after the fourth century.
