This volume offers a brief and stimulating introduction to the major authors and works comprising Greek drama. Hawley dispels the artificial and anachronistic division between the previously polarized genres of comedy and tragedy, and instead illustrates how Ancient Greek authors and genres co-existed, influencing, echoing and parodying one another. The book offers an introduction to the whole range of Greek drama, presents a multiplicity of critical approaches and a wide range of authors and texts.
