Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Plutarch as a Source of on the Greek Them Theater: A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Literature, in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philisophy
MY original plan was to collect and present all that Plutarch teaches us concerning the Greek drama and theater, with the secondary idea of discovering his literary method in dealing with incidents involving these subjects. It soon became apparent, however, that this was too large a theme for treatment in a doc tor's dissertation. Accordingly, I have restricted myself to his testimony on the theater alone and, still more particularly, to the consideration of his value as a witness on the theater. Thus, I have in hand an abundance of material which I hope to use in further studies in Plutarch. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
