Synopsis
ABOUT THE BOOK:- This book deals with the dramatic theory of the German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. Discussing the history of the tragic form, it introduces an intellectual dichotomy between the Dionysian and the Apollonian. It claims that life always involves a struggle between these two elements, each battling for control over the existence of humanity. Further it argues that the tragedy of Ancient Greece was the highest form of art due to its mixture of both Apollonian and Dionysian elements into one seamless whole, allowing the spectator to experience the full spectrum of the human condition. The Dionysian element was to be found in the music of the chorus, while the Apollonian element was found in the dialogue which gave a concrete symbolism that balanced the Dionysian revelry. ABOUT THE AUTHOR:- Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche was a German philosopher, cultural critic, poet, philologist, and Latin and Greek scholar whose work has exerted a profound influence on Western philosophy and modern intellectual history. He began his career as a classical philologist before turning to philosophy. He became the youngest ever to hold the Chair of Classical Philology at the University of Basel in 1869, at the age of 24. His important works include The Greek Music Drama, The Greek State, The Birth of Tragedy, Philosophy in the Tragic Age of the Greeks, We Philologists, Human, All Too Human, Beyond Good and Evil, On the Genealogy of Morality, and Twilight of the Idols.
