Excerpt from The Theatre of the Greeks: A Treatise on the History and Exhibition of the Greek Drama, With a Supplementary Treatise on the Language, Metres, and Prosody of the Greek Dramatists A prominent and distinctive feature of the present edition will be recognized in the numerous illustrations from the best ancient authorities, by which the details of a Greek theatrical performance are reproduced and rendered visible to the student. Some of these have been borrowed from Mr Rich's very useful Companion to the Latin Dictionary and Greek Lexicon. The majority appear for the first time in an English book. With regard to the Theatre at Aspendus, which has done more than any ancient monument to substitute reality for conjecture in our notions of the ancient scene, it is to be regretted that Sch'onborn's photographs are not forthcoming; but Texier'a views of the elevation and interior, which are here reproduced, are sufficient to give an adequate idea of the only ancient theatre which has come down to us without material dilapi dations.
