SPITZBARTH, Anna, Untersuchungen zur Spieltechnik der griechischen Tragödie. Rhein Verlag, Zürich, 1946. 109p. Sewn wrps. Spine strenghtened with adhesive tape. Small personal library mark and name on free endpaper.'The aim of this monograph is to describe and catalog what can be known of acting in Greek tragedy by the use of textual indications in the thirty-two tragedies and two satyr plays (not the fragments). Since the author has done what she set out to do, by means of much careful work in collection and constant citation of incidents from the plays (…), the monograph is therefore valuable for its assemblage of material on Greek tragic acting. Still, much of the interesting material in the thirteen chapters closely corresponds to work already done.' (F.L. SHISLER in The American Journal of Philology, Vol. 69, 1948, p. 229). From the library of the late Sir Kenneth James Dover. € 16.00 (Antiquarian)
