This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Prometheus and Agamemnon of Aeschylus Translated Into English Verse How highly those tastes were cultivated is evident from the capacity of the people, from the highest to the lowest, to enjoy poetry of such a nature as the Greek dramas, purely ideal, aesthetical, and appealing less directly than that of any other school to tho ordinary tastes or passions of a multitude. To the representation, therefore, of these dramas before an audience at once so large, so fastidiously critical, and so refined, every member of which lived constantly and plied his daily labors in the midst of those masterpieces of sculptural art which in our times are shut up in galleries and enjoyed almost exclusively by the rich, and was thoroughly qualified to pronounce on matters now understood by a few only, a corresponding scale of magnitude and style of magnificence were essential. For dramas, the patrons of which were the immortal Gods, the subjects the deeds of demigods and heroes, and the spectators a nation, theatres were required of colossal proportions. And such were the theatres of the Greeks; gigantic edifices of the most symmetrical design and the most solid materials, capable of accommodating so many as thirty thousand persons, rising tier above tier of marble seats, topped and inclosed by lofty porticos, adorned by statues wrought by such hands as those of Phidias and Myron, surmounted by balustraded terraces, and roofed by the azure vault of heaven.

Book excerpt: The third edition of this volume includes newly revised, authoritative and compelling translations of four timeless works by the Ancient Greek tragedian. Aeschylus I contains “The Persians,” translated by Seth Benardete; “The Seven Against Thebes,” translated by David Grene; “The Suppliant Maidens,” translated by Seth Benardete; and “Prometheus Bound,” translated by David Grene. For this edition, Mark Griffith and Glenn W. Most have carefully updated these translations to bring them even closer to the ancient Greek while retaining the vibrancy for which the renowned University of Chicago Press series is famous. This edition also includes brand-new translations of Euripides’ Medea, The Children of Heracles, Andromache, and Iphigenia among the Taurians, fragments of lost plays by Aeschylus, and the surviving portion of Sophocles’s satyr-drama The Trackers. New introductions for each play offer essential information about its first production, plot, and reception in antiquity and beyond. In addition, each volume includes an introduction to the life and work of its tragedian, as well as notes addressing textual uncertainties and a glossary of names and places mentioned in the plays. The entire series has also been reorganized both within and between volumes to reflect the most up-to-date scholarship on the order in which the plays were originally written.

Download or read book Greek Tragedies I written by David Grene and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-04-22 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outstanding translations of five plays, now updated with informative new content for students, teachers, and lovers of the classics. Greek Tragedies, Volume I contains: Aeschylus’s “Agamemnon,” translated by Richmond Lattimore Aeschylus’s “Prometheus Bound,” translated by David Grene Sophocles’s “Oedipus the King,” translated by David Grene Sophocles’s “Antigone,” translated by Elizabeth Wyckoff Euripides’s “Hippolytus,” translated by David Grene. Sixty years ago, the University of Chicago Press undertook a momentous project: a new translation of the Greek tragedies that would be the ultimate resource for teachers, students, and readers. They succeeded. Under the expert management of eminent classicists David Grene and Richmond Lattimore, those translations combined accuracy, poetic immediacy, and clarity of presentation to render the surviving masterpieces of Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides in an English so lively and compelling that they remain the standard translations. In this highly anticipated third edition, Mark Griffith and Glenn W. Most have carefully updated the translations to bring them even closer to the ancient Greek while retaining the vibrancy they the for which our English versions are famous. New introductions for each play offer essential information about its first production, plot, and reception in antiquity and beyond. Each volume includes an introduction to the life and work of its tragedian, as well as notes addressing textual uncertainties and a glossary of names and places mentioned in the plays. In addition to the new content, the volumes have been reorganized both within and between volumes to reflect the most up-to-date scholarship on the order in which the plays were originally written. The result is a collection destined to introduce new generations of readers to these foundational works of Western drama, art, and life.

Download or read book Prometheus Bound written by Aeschylus and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prometheus Bound by Aeschylus and translated into English Verse by E.D.A. Morshead. From the plays of Aeschylus. The surviving dramas of Aeschylus are seven in number, though he is believed to have written nearly a hundred during his life of sixty-nine years, from 525 B.C. to 456 B.C. That he fought at Marathon in 490, and at Salamis in 480 B.C. is a strongly accredited tradition, rendered almost certain by the vivid references to both battles in his play of The Persians, which was produced in 472. The Prometheus Bound is conspicuous for its gigantic and strictly superhuman plot. The Agamemnon is human, though legendary the Prometheus presents to us the gods of Olympus in the days when mankind crept like emmets upon the earth or dwelt in caves, scorned by Zeus and the other powers of heaven, and-still aided by Prometheus the Titan-wholly without art or science, letters or handicrafts. For his benevolence towards oppressed mankind, Prometheus is condemned by Zeus to uncounted ages of pain and torment, shackled and impaled in a lonely cleft of a Scythian precipice. The play opens with this act of divine resentment enforced by the will of Zeus and by the handicraft of Hephaestus, who is aided by two demons, impersonating Strength and Violence. These agents if the ire of Zeus disappear after the first scene, the rest of the play represents Prometheus in the mighty solitude, but visited after a while by a Chorus of sea nymphs who, from the distant depths of ocean, have heard the clang of the demons' hammers, and arrive, in a winged car, from the submarine palace of their father Oceanus.
