Product Description
Figures of Play explores the reflexive aspects of ancient theatrical culture across genres. A range of metafictional strategies is identified and shown to contribute to a selection of individual tragedies and comedies, as well as to the ongoing dialogue between genres. From Euripides' reinvention of Dionysos as a theatrical god to the a series of tragedies "recycled" by Aristophanes, reflexive sophisticaltion is foregrounded as an originary feature of Greek drama.
