Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 2016 Brill hardcover edition. Light reading wear else very good condition. From the cover: The Reception of Aeschylus' Plays through Shifting Models and Frontiers addresses the need for an integrated approach to the study and staging of Aeschylus' plays. It offers an invigorating discussion about the transmission and reception of his plays and explores the interrelated tasks of editing, translating, adapting and remaking them for the page and the stage. The volume seeks to reshape current debates about the place of his tragedies in the curriculum and the repertory in a scholarly manner that is accessible and innovative. Each chapter makes a significant and original contribution to its selected topic, but the collective strength of the volume rests on its simultaneous appeal to readers in theatre studies, classical studies, performance studies, comparative studies, translation studies, adaptation studies, and, naturally, reception studies.

She continues with news of Miss Fowler (visiting 'her Brother & Sister near Melksham in Wiltshire') and of 'Lady Buxton' (who 'does not continue quite so sound as we cd. have wished'), whose own 'Italian sojourn' gives 'pleasure to all the party'.
