摘要:

This book offers a challenging multi-disciplinary interpretation of Aristophanes' Frogs. Rather than seeking to recover the 'authorial' meaning of the Frogs, Dr. Lada-Richards attempts to reconstruct the wider spectrum of potential meanings that various segments of the play could have had in their own socio-cultural milieu.

The key question that is explored is how membership in Greek fifth-century society would have shaped understanding of the play, with particular emphasis on the persona of Dionysus who, as the author argues, should not be viewed merely as a stock comic character but as inseparable from the complex, paradoxical figure of his mythical and ritual counterpart. In its combination of sophistication and complexity with clarity and elegance of style, the book should be of interest to the scholar as well as the student of Greek drama and culture, and its insights should appeal to anyone interested in the manifold ways that theatre, of any period and culture, remoulds the ritual sequences of the social frame to which it belongs.
