And yet the genres developed together, were performed together, and influenced each other to the extent of becoming polar opposites. In Aristophanes and His Tragic Muse, Stephanie Nelson considers this opposition through an analysis of how the genres developed, by looking at the tragic and comic elements in satyr drama, and by contrasting specific Aristophanes plays with tragedies on similar themes, such as the individual, the polis, and the gods. The study reveals that tragedy's focus on necessity and a quest for meaning complements a neglected but critical element in Athenian comedy: its interest in freedom, and the ambivalence of its incompatible visions of reality."--Back cover (page 4 of cover). 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 315-366) and index. 600 00 $a Aristophanes $x Criticism and interpretation. 650 0 $a Greek drama $x History and criticism. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008105400 650 0 $a Greek drama (Comedy) $x Political aspects $z Athens. $z Athens. 650 0 $a Free will and determinism in literature. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85051689 650 0 $a Liberty in literature. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85076482 600 07 $a Aristophanes. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00038457 650 7 $a Greek drama. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00947127 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 776 08 $i Online version: $a Nelson, Stephanie, author. $t Aristophanes and his tragic muse. $d Leiden ; Boston : Brill, 2016 $z 9789004310919 $w (DLC) 2015045089 830 0 $a Mnemosyne, bibliotheca classica Batava. $p Supplementum ; $v 390. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n83743017 830 0 $a Mnemosyne, bibliotheca classica Batava. $p Monographs on Greek and Roman language and literature. $p Monographs on Greek and Roman language and literature. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2009022328 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20171220050628.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=04963E9EE55511E7AFB0C42A97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
