Very Good+ in Very Good-dust jacket. 0715627953. Scholars' bookplate to inner cover. Bottom corners lightly bumped. Tear to DJ at foot of spine (repaired from behind with cellotape). Creasing along bottom edge. Chipping to top of DJ spine.; 224 pages; Using recent narrative theory, this book explores the narrative strategies that sustain the complex relationship between the tragic poet and his sophisticated audience. It discusses how Aeschylus typically shaped these sprawling stories into dramatic form. Then, once established, how these patterns were successively adapted, subverted, capped or ignored by Sophocles and Euripides in the annual attempt to recreate suspense and express fresh meanings relevant to the difficult last decades of the fifth century.
