Lycurgan Athens and the Making of Classical Tragedy - Cambridge Classical Studies
Hanink, Johanna (Brown University, Rhode Island)
The Athenians themselves invented the notion of 'classical' tragedy just a few generations after the city's defeat in the Peloponnesian War. This study marks the first account of how Athens constructed its theatrical past and sheds new light upon the interaction between the city's literary and political history.
