Aeschylus (Classic Reprint) by Reginald Stephen Copleston Pdf

Excerpt from Aeschylus IN order rightly to understand the drama of the Greeks, and especially their tragedy, we must rid our selves, as far as possible, of those associations which now cling in England round the names of play and theatre. For our modern plays are so unlike a Greek tragedy, and the position which they occupy is so entirely different from that of the Athenian theatre, that the few points which both have in common are more likely to impede than assist us.

Greek Tragedy (Classic Reprint) by J. T. Sheppard Pdf

Excerpt from Greek Tragedy His book does not pretend to be a summary of known facts relating to Greek Tragedy. Nor is it, except incidentally, an essay in critical apprecia tion. Its aim is to help modern readers to enjoy Greek plays. For that reason stress has been laid on ideas and conventions which are not likely to be at first sight obvious to an English reader. That is why more space is given to Aeschylus than to either of his successors. That is also the explanation of the brief allusion which is made to some of the greatest of Greek tragedies. The Oedipus Tyrannus, for instance, depends for its effect upon qualities which are apparent, even in translation, to all readers who care for poetry and drama. It may be added that this book will be of little use unless the reader will turn to the plays them selves, either in the original or at least in a translation. Finally, remarks which are made in regard to one play often apply with equal force to many others. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Oresteia of Aeschylus by R. C. Trevelyan Pdf

Excerpt from The Oresteia of Aeschylus: Agamemnon, Choephori, Eumenides The fragments of Aeschylus' s predecessors are too scanty to give us any clear idea of the debt he may have owed to them. But it seems probable that drama, as one of the supreme forms of art, was the creation of his own unique personal genius Within the limits of a short introduction no adequate account can be given of his art, or of its rela tions to the plays of his rivals and successors. I must confine myself to a few remarks upon the traditional drama tic forms which he inherited and developed, and upon my own methods of translation.

Excerpt from Nine Greek Dramas by Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides and Aristophanes Or m life of Eschylus, the first of the three great masters of Greek tragedy, only a very meager outline has come dovvn to us. He was born at Eleusis, near Athens, B. C. 525, the son of Euphorion. Before he was twenty-five he began to compete for the tragic price, but did not win a victory for twelve years. He spent two periods of years in Sicily, where he died in 456, killed, it is said, by a tortoise which an eagle dropped on his head. Though a professional writer, he did his share of fighting for his country, and is reported to have taken part in the battles of Marathon, Salamis, and Platau.

The Prometheus Bound of Æschylus (Classic Reprint) by Aeschylus Aeschylus Pdf

Excerpt from The Prometheus Bound of AEschylus First comes the rise of the epic; when this form has been thoroughly worked over, lyric poetry expands and becomes predominant; out of the lyric grows the drama and last of all comes the splendid harvest of prose. Yet in one sense the lyric is in Greece, as elsewhere, the mother of all poetical forms. The epos is but a devel Opment and interknitting of the old songs of the minstrels celebrating the deeds of heroes and ancestors; the drama grew directly from the chants, now 0 and now ribald, sung in honor of Dionysus. And in both cases the genius of a single man was so predominant as to establish once and forever the model which all were to follow. What Homer did for epic.

Four Plays of Aeschylus by G. M. Cookson Pdf

Excerpt from Four Plays of Aeschylus: The Suppliant Maidens; The Persians; The Seven Against Thebes; Prometheus Bound Scene: Argos. A hill rises in the foreground, and on the summit of it stand altars and statues of many gods. Enter the fifty Danaides, with their slave girls, and Danaus. Chorus. Zeus, the Suppliant's God, be gracious to us, Pitifully behold us, for fugitives are we; Where the blown sand-dunes silt the mouths of Nilus, There we took the highway of the blue, salt sea; There looked our last at the land of Zeus, her borders Lapsed and lost in the Syrian marches wild, Fleeing, not as outlaws banned for blood-guilt Lest a people perish, but self-exiled. No way but this to escape abhorred embraces, Marriage rites unholy that true love shuns; Better far lands and unfamiliar faces Than wedded and bedded with King AEgyptus' sons. As when hard pressed on the board a cautious player This piece or that from a threatened square withdraws, One move seemed best unto Danaus our father, Counsel-in-chief and leader of our cause; One woe to suffer - and that the noblest sorrow, Seeing we were compassed in on every hand, - About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

It appears whenever the author has completed his congenial task, without any hurry, and to his own satisfaction; so far as the last can be said of works that are imperfect in their nature, that only report progress and marka new starting-point, 'adeo brevis in perfecto est mora'.
