Beschreibung
A COMPANION TO ARISTOPHANES A Companion to Aristophanes provides a comprehensive, systematic, and sophisticated treatment of the life and work of one of the world's great literary figures. Bringing together contributions by an international panel of scholars, this innovative volume situates each of Aristophanes' eleven surviving plays within discussion of key themes relevant to the study of the Aristophanic corpus and its place in literary and cultural history. In-depth yet accessible chapters incorporate material culture and performance context, offer methodological and theoretical insights into the study of Aristophanes, and demonstrate the relevance of Aristophanes to modern life. Each chapter focused on a particular play is paired with a theme that is exemplified by that play, such as gender, sexuality, religion, and satire. With an emphasis on understanding Greek comedy and its ancient Athenian context, this Companion contains approaches to Aristophanes through criticism, performance, translation, and teaching that are designed to encourage and inform future work on Greek comedy. With detailed syllabi and lesson plans for integrating the material into college curricula, A Companion to Aristophanes is an essential resource for advanced students and instructors, academic scholars, university libraries, and non-specialists interested in Aristophanes, Greek drama, classical Athens, or the ancient Mediterranean world.
