Twelve new papers, generated in North America by a distinguished cast of scholars, explore questions central to the genre. How did satyr drama relate to comedy and tragedy; how closely was it tied to its tragic trilogy? How did the Athenians react to pro-satyric drama, such as the \u003ci\u003eAlcestis\u003c\/i\u003e? How far did satyr plays reflect contemporary political life? Fresh conclusions are adduced from the fragments, particularly those of Aeschylus, and there is special study of Euripides' \u003ci\u003eCyclops\u003c\/i\u003e, not least for its possible reflection of the fifth-century sophists.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"The Classical Press of Wales","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52637931045144,"sku":"9781905125036","price":49.36,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/satyr-drama-tragedy-at-play-hardback-9781905125036","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
