Ancient Sun, Modern Light: Greek Drama on the Modern Stage

by Marianne McDonald

Book Overview

'Marianne McDonald's book triumphantly confirms the steadiness of the classical inheritance and explores the reason for its continuing force and glamour in contemporary theatre. These analyses and interviews give Greek drama a whole new lease on life; they send you back to the texts and make you eager to see the works performed.' Seamus Heaney
