This Companion is not a conventional introductory textbook but an attempt, by seven distinguished scholars, to present the familiar corpus in the context of modern reading, criticism, and performance of Greek tragedy. There are three main emphases: on tragedy as an institution in the civic life of ancient Athens, on a range of different critical interpretations arising from fresh readings of the texts, and on changing patterns of reception, adaptation, and performance from antiquity to the present. Each chapter can be read independently, but each is linked with the others, and most examples are drawn from the same selection of plays. 410 0$aCambridge companions to literature. 606 $aGreek drama (Tragedy)$xHistory and criticism 606 $aTheater$zGreece$xHistory$yTo 500 606 $aMythology, Greek, in literature 615 0$aGreek drama (Tragedy)$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aTheater$xHistory 615 0$aMythology, Greek, in literature. 676 $a882/.0109 702 $aEasterling$b P.
