The Comedies of Aristophanes, Vol. 2 (Classic Reprint) by Aristophanes Aristophanes Pdf

Excerpt from The Comedies of Aristophanes, Vol. 2 In offering this Second Volume of Aristophanes to the Public, the Translator cannot forbear to express his acknowledgments for the very serious attention which the two leading Critical Journals of the country were pleased to bestow upon his first, tie has endeavoured to show his sense of that attention, not only by altering the arrangement of his work, but by changing very considerably the manner of conducting it; and though by so doing he may have escaped some errors only to fall into others of a contrary description, his critics will not have to reckon among them an obstinate adherence to his own opinion of the right nature of translation.

Excerpt from The History of the Harlequinade, Vol. 2 From the Greek comedies down to our own modern vaude villes, from the old satyr besmeared with grape-juice down to Cassandre besmeared with snuff, at the hands of Aristophanes, Plautus, Terence, Macchiavelli, Ecolco, Moliere and Goldoni, the old man of the comedy, like the old man of the farce, has always been more or less niggardly, credulous, libertine, duped and mocked, afflicted with rheum and coughs, and, above all, unhappy.

Aristophanes and the Political Parties at Athens (Classic Reprint) by Maurice Croiset Pdf

Excerpt from Aristophanes and the Political Parties at Athens My English version of the late Monsieur Paul Decharme's Euripide et I'esprit de son Theatre met with so friendly a reception at the hands of both public and press, that I felt encouraged to translate the present excellent work by Monsieur Maurice Croiset, who very courteously gave me permission to do so. In this volume the attentive reader will find, not only a very scholarly treatment of the difficult question, so often discussed, of Aristophanes attitude toward the political parties of his time and of the political purpose of his comedies, but also a very vivid account of many of the phases of Athenian life which he has satirized or held up to ridicule. I cherish the hope that this book will lead some of its readers to refresh their school-day memories of Attica's brilliant comic poet, and others to make the acquaintance, at first hand, or through translation, of one of the most original and entertaining geniuses that ancient culture can boast of. In rendering the quotations from the plays into English I have made frequent use of Mr. Benjamin Bickley Rogers' masterly metrical translation and of the refreshing notes to Dr. W.W. Merry's edition of the plays. To my friend and teacher, Professor John Williams White, of Harvard University, I am greatly indebted for generously contributing an introduction to this volume. He has placed me under an additional obligation by making a critical revision of my translation, and I owe him thanks for constant encouragement in the performance of a pleasant task.

The Verse of Greek Comedy (Classic Reprint) by John Williams White Pdf

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.

Stories From the Greek Comedians by Alfred John Church Pdf

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.
