Scholar's name to ffep (Philippa Goold née Forder). Spine a bit browned. Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. Light pencilling to a couple of pages. ; Euripides is here studied as a great artist of the theatre, and no attempt is made to discover his personal views and beliefs. Indeed, the author insists that such attempts have been made too frequently, and that they have obscured the greatness of the plays as works of art. Each play is discussed in turn as a piece of literature, with the emphasis on dramatic structure and development. ; 456 pages

Gutes Ex. - Englisch; Latein. - Matthew Gwinne or Gwynne (ca. 1558-1627) was born in London. It is known that before teaching Physics at Gresham College in London he began his career as a fellow of St. John's College, Txford, where, besides his profession of medicine, he distinguished himself as a playwright. In the dedicatory letter to the 1607 edition of Vertumnus he states that he had been professing medicine for twenty and teaching it for fourteen years. The comedy Vertumnus is his second play, his tragedy Nero having ceen printed in 1603. Vertumnus was performed in 1605, on the occasion of the first ceremonial visit to Oxford of King James I, accompanied by Henry, Prince of Wales, the Queen, and the court. The performance took place on the Christ Church stage on the 23th August, the third night of the visit. Though well acted cy a company consisting chiefly of St. John's men, the play met with as little success as the two plays which had preceded it on the previous nights (the pastoral Alba and the tragedy Ajax Flagellifer). The King fell asleep in the middle of the performance although the author in courteous anticipation of his presence had given the actors the opportunity of extolling him in a eulogy at three different moments in the play: in the prologue, in the fourth act, and in the epilogue. By contrast, the King had been delighted to see the open-air informal interlude Tres Sibyllae, also written by Gwinne, which was acted in front of St. John's College on the day of the King's entry into Oxford. ...

Aeschylus,Aristophanes, Euripdes,Sophocles "In power, passion, and the brilliant display of moral conflict, the drama of ancient Greece remains unsurpassed. For this volume, Professor Hadas chose nine plays which display the diversity and grandeur of tragedy, and the critical and satiric genius of comedy, in outstanding translations of the past and present. His introduction explores the religious origins, modes of productions, structure, and conventions of the Greek theater, individual prefaces illuminate each play and clarify the author's place in the continuity of Greek drama" 387p.
