    Greek Tragedy and Cognition

    Edición de Felix Budelmann, Ineke Sluiter ...
    Series series Cognitive Classics
    Greek tragedy parades, tests, stimulates, and upends human cognition. Characters plot deception, try to fathom elusive gods, and fail to recognise loved ones. Spectators observe the characters' cognitive limitations and contemplate their own, grapple with moral quandaries and emotional breakdown, overlay mythical past and topical present, and all the while imagine that a man with a mask is Helen ...

    Performance and the Lyric in Early Greece

    Edición de Felix Budelmann, Tom Phillips ...

  • The Emotions of the Ancient Greeks

    Studies in Aristotle and Classical Literature

    de David Konstan ...
    It is generally assumed that whatever else has changed about the human condition since the dawn of civilization, basic human emotions - love, fear, anger, envy, shame - have remained constant. David Konstan, however, argues that the emotions of the ancient Greeks were in some significant respects different from our own, and that recognizing these differences is important to understanding ancient ...

  • Synaesthesia and the Ancient Senses

    Edición de Shane Butler, Alex Purves ...
    Series series The Senses in Antiquity
    Like us, the ancient Greeks and Romans came to know and understand the world through their senses. Yet sensory experience has rarely been considered in the study of antiquity and, when the senses are examined, sight is regularly privileged. 'Synaesthesia and the Ancient Senses' presents a radical reappraisal of antiquity's textures, flavours, and aromas, sounds and sights. It offers both a fresh ... Leer más

  • Aristophanes' Thesmophoriazusae

    Philosophizing Theatre and the Politics of Perception in Late Fifth-Century Athens

    Series series Cambridge Classical Studies
    Aristophanes' comic masterpiece Thesmophoriazusae has long been recognized amongst the plays of Old Comedy for its deconstruction of tragic theatricality. This book reveals that this deconstruction is grounded not simply in Aristophanes' wider engagement with tragic realism. Rather, it demonstrates that from its outset Aristophanes' play draws upon Parmenides' philosophical revelations concerning ... Leer más

  • Greek Comedy and the Discourse of Genres

    Recent scholarship has acknowledged that the intertextual discourse of ancient comedy with previous and contemporary literary traditions is not limited to tragedy. This book is a timely response to the more sophisticated and theory-grounded way of viewing comedy's interactions with its cultural and intellectual context. It shows that in the process of its self-definition, comedy emerges as ... Leer más

  • Tragic Pathos

    Pity and Fear in Greek Philosophy and Tragedy

    Scholars have often focused on understanding Aristotle's poetic theory, and particularly the concept of catharsis in the Poetics, as a response to Plato's critique of pity in the Republic. However, this book shows that, while Greek thinkers all acknowledge pity and some form of fear as responses to tragedy, each assumes for the two emotions a different purpose, mode of presentation and, to a ...

    Auditory Aesthetics in Ancient Greece

    Series series Idiom: Inventing Writing Theory
    In the four centuries leading up to the death of Euripides, Greek singers, poets, and theorists delved deeply into auditory experience. They charted its capacity to develop topologies distinct from those of the other senses; contemplated its use as a communicator of information; calculated its power to express and cause extreme emotion. They made sound too, artfully and self-consciously creating ... Leer más
