- W1528275250 abstract "The author, an authority on the theatre, condenses within 165 pages the essential facts about and Roman drama, dramatic festivals, theatres, actors and the chorus, costumes, properties and scenery, with a special treatment of the Theatre of Dionysus at Athens. In two brief concluding chapters he sketches the influence of the classic theatre and during the Renaissance. The treatment of both and Roman stage matters in one volume--a feature almost unique in modern handbooks-increases the usefulness of the book to all students of the except specialists. This union of and Roman dramatics is logical. The influence of the directly upon Rome and only mediately upon the modern stage. In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries it Vitruvius, Seneca, Plautus and Terence to whom theatre-builder and dramatist turned. Greek tragic form flourished only among the Greeks: for the rest of the world it has been . . . exotic. Old Comedy cannot claim a numerous progeny. Modern opera, however, was in part the child of drama (p. 180 ff.). The author is compelled by his theme to deal largely with facts and technical matters, but he gives more than a summary exposition. He continually links the history of the stage with the culture and taste of each period, pointing out, for example, that magnificence of theatre buildings and wealth of properties have not been matched by greatness in the itself. He also emphasizes the need, too often unfelt even by modern authorities, of analyzing and dating the evidence, both literary and archaeological, in estimating the characteristics of ancient drama. He regards the view that there little action ini the of the fifth century as a misconception arising from the failure to notice that much of the evidence for this view comes from the decadent period of tragedy. On the stage question he holds that there is no incontestable evidence for a raised stage at Athens before 150 B.c. SAMUEL E. BASSETT UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT" @default.
