In this book, Taplin looks for clues to Aeschylus's stagecraft in the texts of the plays themselves, analyzing the exits and entrances that occur throughout his works.

The Dramatic Use of Exits and Entrances in Greek Tragedy

The Stagecraft of Aeschylus

This book consists of seventeen essays by a team of international scholars exploring aspects of the reception of literature from the earliest surviving Greek poetry to the demise of classical literature at the end of the Roman empire. Deploying fresh insights to map out lively and provocative surveys, the contributors examine all genres of the classical world--epic, lyric, tragedy, comedy, history, philosophy, rhetoric, epigram, elegy, pastoral, satire, biography, epistle, declamation, panegyric--in search of answers to the questions of who were the genres for and what did these people make of them.
