About this title

Synopsis

This book explores the theatrical references within Plutarch's writings, analyzing how the Greek biographer interpreted and described the Greek theater, its terminology, and its structures. The author traces the development of Plutarch's methods in using his sources, from directly reproducing original material with minimal changes, to adapting his sources to suit his purpose, to combining both methods, and finally to modernizing his sources to better suit the understanding of his contemporary audience. The book examines Plutarch's usage of certain key theatrical terms, including theatron (audience or seating area), orchestra (dancing space), and thymele (altar or platform), and how these terms evolved over time. Through Plutarch's references, the author pieces together a picture of the Greek theater, addressing its architectural features, its uses for performances and assemblies, and its place in Greek society.

Store Description

Seit �ber 30 Jahren handeln wir mit B�chern. Begonnen hat alles als kleiner Fachbuchhandel in Berlin. Heute sind wir spezialisiert auf den An- und Verkauf gebrauchter B�cher. Noch immer liegt unser Fokus dabei auf den Kategorien: Fachbuch und englischsprachige Literatur. Hinzu kommen B�cher aus allen anderen Genres, wie Belletristik, Biografien oder Kinderb�cher. Unser oberstes Ziel ist dabei die Weiterverwendung von Dingen und die Schonung von Ressourcen. Neben dem Ankauf von privaten B�chern oder Haushaltsaufl�sungen kaufen wir bundesweit komplette Bibliotheken und Buchbest�nde von Institutionen auf, um diese nachhaltig ein weiteres Mal auf den Markt zu bringen. Parallel dazu bietet Buchpark die M�glichkeit, gro�e Mengen einzulagern.
