Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1912 edition. Excerpt: ... first general class comprehends systematic periods in antistrophic relation, a-eaiv. The related parts (strophe, antistrophe) may be juxtaposed, a-weetav vTcnroSiSofteva.1 This relation of parts is found in stasima and sometimes elsewhere, as in Pax 775-96 = 797-818. But the antistrophe is generally separated from the strophe, in comedy, by an intervening series of verses in another rhythm to which a second series corresponds, as in the last half of the parabasis, in the debate and in syzygies. Thus Heliodorus commenting on Pax 939--55 says: fieo4 inrovou / ei eetv - ev Sieeia, with reference to the antistrophe in 1023-38. Such periods, therefore, may be denominated ev Sieeia (or Sie%eiav Heph.) avra-rroSiSo/ieva. On their semeiosis see 851. 1 The phraseology does not happen to Hephaestion, but is restored by Hense occur in the Aristophanio scholia nor in (Unterruchiingm, 131). 707. I. Melic. The period, on inspection, is discovered not to differ essentially in kind or constitution from those of the preceding general class. It is always a song, but it ie not used antistrophically. The following single 'non-antiatrophic melic periods occur in Aristophanes: --708. Prologue: Pax 114-23, . 209-22, Thesm. 101-29, Ran. 209-68. Parode: Nub. 457-75, Pax 582-600, Av. 22762, 400-33, Thesm. 312-30, 352-71. Scene: Ach. 263-79, Av. 904 ff., Thesm. 433-42, 459-65, 776-84, . 875-84. Syzygy: Nub. 707-22, Pax 512-19, Thesm. 659-66.

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.

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.

Download or read book Ancient Greek Comedy written by Almut Fries and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-06-22 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, in honour of Angus M. Bowie, collects seventeen original essays on Greek comedy. Its contributors treat questions of origin, genre and artistic expression, interpret individual plays from different angles (literary, historical, performative) and cover aspects of reception from antiquity to the 20th century. Topics that have not received much attention so far, such as the prehistory of Doric comedy or music in Old Comedy, receive a prominent place. The essays are arranged in three sections: (1) Genre, (2) Texts and Contexts, (3) Reception. Within each section the chapters are as far as possible arranged in chronological order, according to historical time or to the (putative) dates of the plays under discussion. Thus readers will be able to construe their own diachronic and thematic connections, for example between the portrayal of stock characters in early Doric farce and developed Attic New Comedy or between different forms of comic reception in the fourth century BC. The book is intended for professional scholars, graduate and undergraduate students. Its wide range of subjects and approaches will appeal not only to those working on Greek comedy, but to anyone interested in Greek drama and its afterlife.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contributions to this volume illustrate how the linguistic study of Greek comedy can deepen our knowledge of the intricate connections between the dramatic texts and their literary and socio-cultural environment. Topics discussed include the relationship of comedy and iambus, the world of Doric comedy in Sicily, figures of speech and obscene vocabulary in Aristophanes, comic elements in tragedy, language and cultural identity in fifth-century Athens, linguistic characterizationin Middle Comedy, the textual transmission of New Comedy, and the interaction of language and dramatic technique in Menander. Research in these topics and in related areas is reviewed in an extensive bibliographical essay.While the main focus is on comedy, the diversity of the approaches adopted (including narratology, pragmatics, lexicology, dialectology, sociolinguistics, and textual criticism) ensures that much of the work applies to different genres and is relevant also to linguists and literary scholars.

This book was released on 2024-05-14 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ancient Greek comedy relied primarily on its text and words for the fulfilment of its humorous effects and aesthetic goals. In the wake of a rich tradition of previous scholarship, this volume explores a variety of linguistic materials and stylistic artifices exploited by the Greek comic poets, from vocabulary and figures of speech (metaphors, similes, rhyme) to types of joke, obscenity, and the mechanisms of parody. Most of the chapters focus on Aristophanes and Old Comedy, which offers the richest arsenal of such techniques, but the less ploughed fields of Middle and New Comedy are also explored. Emphasis is placed on practical criticism and textual readings, on the examination of particular artifices of speech and the analysis of individual passages. The main purpose is to highlight the use of language for the achievement of the aesthetic, artistic, and intellectual purposes of ancient comedy, in particular for the generation of humour and comic effect, the delineation of characters, the transmission of ideological messages, and the construction of poetic meaning. The volume will be useful to scholars of ancient drama, linguists, students of humour, and scholars of Classical literature in general.
