Zusammenfassung: | "The gods have much to tell us about performance. When human actors portray deities onstage, such divine epiphanies reveal not only the complexities of mortals playing gods but also the nature of theatrical spectacle itself. The very impossibility of rendering the gods in all their divine splendor in a truly convincing way lies at the intersection of divine power and the power of the theater. This book pursues these dynamics on the stages of ancient Athens and Rome as well on those of Renaissance England to shed new light on theatrical performance. The authors reveal how gods appear onstage both to astound and to dramatize the very machinations by which theatrical performance operates. Offering an array of case studies featuring both canonical and lesser-studied texts, this volume discusses work of Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, Aristophanes, and Plautus as well as Beaumont, Heywood, Jonson, Marlowe, and Shakespeare. This book uniquely brings together the joint perspectives of two experts on classical and Renaissance drama. This volume will appeal to students and enthusiasts of literature, classics, theater, and performance studies"-- |

Garrison London ; New York ; Oxford ; New Delhi ; Sydney Bloomsbury Academic 2021 197 Seiten 8 Illustrationen (schwarz-weiß) txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier Bloomsbury studies in classical reception "The gods have much to tell us about performance. When human actors portray deities onstage, such divine epiphanies reveal not only the complexities of mortals playing gods but also the nature of theatrical spectacle itself. The very impossibility of rendering the gods in all their divine splendor in a truly convincing way lies at the intersection of divine power and the power of the theater. This book pursues these dynamics on the stages of ancient Athens and Rome as well on those of Renaissance England to shed new light on theatrical performance. The authors reveal how gods appear onstage both to astound and to dramatize the very machinations by which theatrical performance operates. Offering an array of case studies featuring both canonical and lesser-studied texts, this volume discusses work of Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, Aristophanes, and Plautus as well as Beaumont, Heywood, Jonson, Marlowe, and Shakespeare. This book uniquely brings together the joint perspectives of two experts on classical and Renaissance drama. This volume will appeal to students and enthusiasts of literature, classics, theater, and performance studies"-- Geschichte 1500-1700 gnd rswk-swf Götter Motiv (DE-588)4207912-3 gnd rswk-swf Englisch (DE-588)4014777-0 gnd rswk-swf Darstellung (DE-588)4200624-7 gnd rswk-swf Drama (DE-588)4012899-4 gnd rswk-swf Antike (DE-588)4068754-5 gnd rswk-swf Theater / Greece / History / To 500 Theater / Rome / History / To 500 Gods in literature Classical drama / History and criticism Theater / Great Britain / History / 16th century Theater / Great Britain / History / 17th century English drama / Early modern and Elizabethan, 1500-1600 / History and criticism English drama / 17th century / History and criticism Renaissance / England Mythology, Classical, in literature Classical drama English drama English drama / Early modern and Elizabethan Renaissance Theater England Great Britain Greece Rome (Empire) To 1699 Criticism, interpretation, etc History Aeschyli Oresteia (DE-2581)TH000000038 gbd Plaut.
