Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Verse of Greek Comedy Notwithstanding the considerable attention here given' to non-melic verse, its investigation is by no means complete. I have discussed caesura and diaeresis with particular care, but lack of space has precluded the study at any length of our poet's different manners in each sort of non-melic verse. The trimeters in one play, for example, differ in interesting particulars from those in another, and Aristophanes modulates his spoken verse skilfully to varying themes, although the range of emotion and sentiment is not so great in comedy as in tragedy.

Book Synopsis The Art of Greek Comedy by : Katherine Lever
Download or read book The Art of Greek Comedy written by Katherine Lever and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1956, this is a critical analysis of the comedies of Aristophanes and Menander studied in the context of the history of comedy, of the allied arts, and of contemporary life. Aristophanes and Menander are deservedly the most famous writers of Greek comedy. The extant comedies of Aristophanes are notable for wit, comical action, beautiful poetry, and the dramatization of such problems as health of mind and body, sex, money, government, law, religion, education, and drama, music and poetry. Menander portrays with delicate and sympathetic understanding a world in which the seeming evils of loss and discord eventually lead to the genuine goods of discovery and concord. The art of Aristophanes is critically examined in three chapters and that of Menander in one. For centuries Dionysos had been worshipped in a spirit of ecstasy which manifested itself in song, dance and the wearing of masks and costumes, pantomime, farce, and satire. The processes by which these diverse elements were developed and fused into the complex literary form of Old Comedy are the subject of the first three chapters. Aristophanes was not only pre-eminent as a writer of Old Comedy; he also participated in the transformation of Old Comedy into Middle Comedy, a curious and interesting dramatic form which is fully treated in the seventh chapter. In the last chapter the emergence of New Comedy is traced and the art of Menander criticized. The book ends with a brief indication of the various forms in which the spirit of Greek comedy had survived to the present day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Comedies of Aristophanes, Vol. 1 of 2: Translated Into Familiar Blank Verse, With Notes, Preliminary Observations on Each Play, Etc It is well observed by the ingenious Author of the T Ilea tre of the Greeks, (p. 353. Third edition); The most honourable testimony in favour of Aristophanes, is that of the sage Plato, who read him continually, and sent the Clouds to the elder Dionysius, (though in that play not only the web of the Sophists was attacked, but Philosophy itself, and his master Socrates, ) signifying to him, that by means of this play he might make himself acquainted with the Athe nian republic. By this he could scarcely mean that the play was a proof of the unbridled democratic freedom which pre vailed at Athens, but he meant it as a testimony of the poet's deep knowledge of the world, his thorough insight into the whole machinery of the civil constitution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories From the Greek Comedians: Aristophanes, Philemon, Diphilus, Menander, Apollodorus IT has been said that the Greeks had three schools of comedy, the old, the middle, and the new. The old was the Comedy of Politics. It took the form of extravaganza or farce. The reader will find nine specimens of it in this volume, all taken from Aris tophanes, who indeed is the only writer of this school that is left to us. With the middle we need not now concern ourselves. Possibly we may get some idea of what it was like from the Women in Parliament and the Plutus, two of Aristophanes's later plays. The new comedy was the Comedy of Manners. It may be compared with the dramas that bear this name on the modern stage, and also with the ordinary novel. We have it only in the translations of Plautus and Terence. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
