Tragedy in Athens by David Wiles, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

David Wiles explores the performance of tragedy as a spatial practice specific to Athenian culture, at once religious and political. After reviewing controversies and archaeological data regarding the fifth-century performance space, Wiles turns to the chorus and shows how dance mapped out the space for the purposes of any given play. He shows how performance as a whole was organized and, through informative diagrams and accessible analyses, brings the theater of Greek tragedy to life. | Tragedy in Athens by David Wiles, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
