Skenè. Journal of Theatre and Drama Studies
ISSN: 2421-4353

Founded in 2014, Skenè.JTDS wishes to inspire and host, in a new academic site, a vivacious debate on issues, questions and specifics of drama and theatre texts from the antiquity to the present. Areas of special interest are the forms, modes and genres of play texts, and the impact of dramaturgy and performance on their codification. The journal intends to stimulate a discussion on critical approaches to the play text and the performance text within an interdisciplinary context. Philological, linguistic, rhetorical, semiotic, and translation studies, as well as literary and philosophical hermeneutics, reception studies, sociology of theatre, and performance studies will all contribute to a lively confrontation between different perspectives and critical views. The journal promotes the interaction between international scholars of various humanistic areas, furthering a dialogue between renowned and younger researchers. 

 

Skenè. Journal of Theatre and Drama Studies is a peer-reviewed publication.

Issues: Biannual (Spring and Fall), on-line and print on demand, illustrated.

The Journal has no article submission charges or article processing charges.

The Journal has no waiver policy.

Open Access Journal: Tycho. Revista de iniciación en la investigación del teatro clásico y grecolatino y su tradición

 [First posted in AWOL 27 July 2015, updated 6 January 2024]

Tycho. Revista de iniciación en la investigación del teatro clásico y grecolatino y su tradición
ISSN: 2340-6682

Tycho es una publicación con una periodicidad anual que desde el marco amplio de las ciencias de la Antigüedad Clásica tiene como objetivo dar apoyo y aliento a los estudiantes en las fases finales de las enseñanzas conducentes a los títulos de Grado y de Máster, que se ocupen del teatro clásico griego y latino así como de su pervivencia en la tradición occidental. 

Con este fin publica artículos resultado de la revisión y reelaboración de trabajos realizados en los programas de grado y postgrado, en los puntos de inflexión de los procesos de formación académica e investigadora en los que se cierra un periodo formativo y se inicia otro, fundamentalmente Trabajos Final de Grado y Trabajos Final de Máster. 

Impulsada por el GRATUV (Grup de Recerca i Acció Teatral de la Universitat de València), Tycho surge como una plataforma que dé visibilidad a los jóvenes postgraduados y les sirva de acicate para adentrarse en el complejo mundo de la investigación, en la esperanza de que sea un estímulo para la realización de Trabajos Final de Grado y Trabajos Final de Máster en el ámbito del teatro grecolatino y la tradición clásica basada en él. 

Creemos, además, que esta publicación puede ser de gran ayuda a los estudiantes en sus primeras etapas en la medida en que les aporta información útil presentada de un modo especialmente accesible para ellos, en un discurso y un lenguaje que les es más cercano.

The Cambridge Greek Play

 [First posted in AWOL 30 October 2015, updaters 25 April 2020]

The Cambridge Greek Play

The tradition of performing a Greek play in Cambridge goes back to 1882, when the very first production was of Sophocles’ tragedy Ajax. The two producers were not classicists in the strict sense: the first was John Willis Clark, superintendent of the Museum of Zoology who possessed a passionate interest in the theatre. The other was Charles Waldstein, a classical archaeologist.

Description

Medea, a performance history is a multimedia/interactive guide to the production history of Euripides’ Medea – an ancient Greek tragedy about a mother who, betrayed by her husband, exacts revenge by killing her children. First performed nearly 2,500 years ago, and continually reinvented since, Medea remains the most controversial yet alluring female role in the history of theatre worldwide.

This multimedia/interactive ebook draws on a unique collection of archival material and research at the APGRD (Archive of Performances of Greek and Roman Drama) at the University of Oxford and uses images, film, unique interviews and digital objects to tell the story of a play that has inspired countless interpretations, onstage and onscreen, in dance, drama and opera across the globe from antiquity to the present.

Theatrum

Theatrum

 

Die Website www.theatrum.de ist als Internetprojekt aus den Aktivitäten zur Erforschung des römischen Theaters von Mogontiacum-Mainz hervorgegangen. Ziel ist, in kurzer Form Basisinformationen zu allen bekannten Theatern der griechisch-römischen Antike zusammenzustellen. So soll ein schneller Zugang zu den Fragen hergestellt werden, was über das Aussehen eines Theaters bekannt ist und was dort veranstaltet wurde – jeweils streng orientiert an der historischen und archäologischen Überlieferung jedes einzelnen Baues. 

Die antiken Theater waren öffentliche Räume, die bei den großen Feierlichkeiten ihrer Gemeinden im Blickpunkt der gesamten Gesellschaft standen. Hier fanden im fest gefügten Ablauf sakraler Feste nach Opfern und Prozessionen für die Götter oder den Herrscher Bühnenaufführungen unterschiedlicher Art statt. Wer als Mitglied der Gesellschaft diesen Feiern beiwohnte, nahm auch an den Bühnenaufführungen teil und so erklärt sich die nach heutigen Maßstäben enorme Zuschauerkapazität der Theaterbauten. Die mit dem griechischen Wort Euergetismus bezeichnete Wohltätigkeit führender Gesellschaftsmitglieder ermöglichte erst den Bau solch komplexer Anlagen. Als Gegenleistung für diese als Verpflichtung empfundene Großzügigkeit gewährte die Gemeinde dem Spender Ehrenstandbilder im Theater und verewigte ihn bis auf unsere Tage für die Nachwelt. Hiermit ging die Verehrung von Göttern und Herrschern einher, die in jedem Theater ihren Ausdruck in Form einer statuarischen Ausstattung fand.

Die großen, weithin bekannten Spiele wurden von professionell ausgebildeten Akteuren besucht, deren Erfolge in den Agonen vor allem des griechischen Ostens auf zahlreichen Inschriften aufgelistet wurden. Vielfach machten Münzprägungen Namen und Preise von Spielen im ganzen Reich bekannt. Halten griechische Inschriften den Ablauf von Feiern penibel fest, so teilen uns die lateinischen Inschriften des Westens genau mit, wie viel Geld Spiele (ludi scaenici) oder Baumaßnahmen kosteten und wer diese bezahlte. Unterschiede und Gemeinsamkeiten des Theaterwesens im griechischen Osten und dem lateinischen Westen werden deutlich, ebenso wie regionale Besonderheiten etwa der gallo-römischen Theater oder der orientalischen Kult-Theater.

Open Access Journal: Didaskalia: The Journal for Ancient Performance

[First posted in AWOL 2 November 2009. Updated 22 August 2018.  n.b.  Founded in 1994, Didaskalia is a Pioneering Open Access Journal]

Didaskalia: The Journal for Ancient Performance
ISSN: 1321-4853

Didaskalia (διδασκαλία) is the term used since ancient times to describe the work a playwright did to teach his chorus and actors the play.  The official records of the dramatic festivals in Athens were the διδασκαλίαι.  Didaskalia now furthers the scholarship of the ancient performance.

Didaskalia is an English-language, online publication about the performance of Greek and Roman drama, dance, and music.  We publish double blind, peer-reviewed scholarship on performance as well as reviews of the professional activity of artists and scholars who work on ancient drama.

We welcome submissions on any aspect of the field, and we provide a uniquely friendly venue for publishing sound, image, and video evidence.  If you would like your work to be reviewed, please write to editor@didaskalia.net at least three weeks in advance of the performance date.  We also seek interviews with practitioners and opinion pieces.

Diazoma

Diazoma

The DIAZOMA association was founded on the initiative of the former Greek Minister of Culture Stavros Benos and brings together three “families”: the archaeological community (archaeologists, curators, conservators, etc.), Greek artists and intellectuals and local authorities (mayors, regional administrations and citizens).

Our fundamental goal is to shape vast social networks of synergies in order to protect and promote this unique category of monuments that are the ancient theaters. To this end, Diazoma cooperates on an ongoing basis with the Ministry of Education, Research and Religious Affairs as well as with the Ministry of Culture and Sports and seeks to bring together and engage all actors of Greek society (population, mayors, prefects, universities, cultural associations) around this objective.

Raising awareness among the populations about the colossal cultural heritage and the unique potential of ancient theaters for their regions, having them participate in their preservation and revival, creating cultural routes and archaeological parks, organizing cultural events, enhancing the natural environment, adopting a charter of quality involving all the local actors (from small producers to local tourist companies), these are all steps to take towards the realization of the ultimate vision of Diazoma : the sustainable development of regions around their cultural heritage.

As a result, theaters are at the heart of two key encounters: the one with the people and the other with tourism economy, environment and culture.

Our movement for the ancient theaters is getting stronger and richer each day.
The effectiveness of our work results from a solid and innovative operational strategy. It is based, on the one hand, on studies involving the greatest names in archeology but also on a comprehensive documentation including publications, articles, documentaries, presentations, etc.

We also implement three alternative modes of funding, namely sponsorships, contributions from cities / regions and citizen participation in response to DIAZOMA’s “Adopt an Ancient Theater” invitation.

In addition, we develop programs inspired by original proposals from our members and volunteers such as digital guided tours via mobile phone, 3D representations of monuments, diversification of sponsorship, etc.

Finally, absolute transparency in all administrative and financial transactions is Diazoma’s golden rule.
Our efforts have already borne significant fruits, as evidenced by the progress of the works in no less than fifty-five ancient theaters. The following synoptic table will provide you with information on this progress: AT A GLANCE.

Open Access Journal: Archive of Performances of Greek and Roman Drama (APGRD) Newsletter

[First posted in AWOL 6 March 2013, updated 15 January 2018]

Archive of Performances of Greek and Roman Drama (APGRD) Newsletter

Ancient drama has exerted a uniquely formative influence on cultural and intellectual life since the Renaissance, and today ancient plays are being performed in both the commercial and amateur theatre with greater frequency than at any time since antiquity. The Archive of Performances of Greek and Roman Drama was founded in 1996 by Edith Hall and Oliver Taplin in response to the need for a coordinated research effort devoted to the international production and reception of ancient plays since the Renaissance. They included within its scope revivals and adaptations on stage, film and radio, and in opera and dance.
