About This Item
Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 1993. 1st edition. As New. octavo. hardback with dust jacket 238pp., notes, index, According to Christian Meier, one of Germany's leading classicists, a Greek tragedy cannot be considered simply a work of art or a reflection of ancient modes of thought. He argues that it is essential to understand tragedy's interaction with the practice of Greek democracy. In The Political Art of Greek Tragedy he focuses on the works of Aeschylus to examine the close relationship between drama and politics at the beginning of the great age of Greek tragedy.
