Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a critical overview of the depiction of madness in Greek drama, positing that theatre not only reflected the social understanding of mental illness, but also played an active role in shaping that understanding. The author explores the intersection of psychology and theatre in ancient Greece, examining the ways in which the Greeks' evolving conceptions of morality and religion impacted their representation of mental illness, and how these representations reflected or challenged the predominant cultural norms and values. The text provides a nuanced analysis of the portrayal of madness in the works of Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides, elucidating the deeper thematic currents and ideas embedded within the dramatic framework. It demonstrates how the Greek dramatists utilized madness as a potent force, both to reflect and critique the moral and social landscape of their time, and to give voice to the profound complexities of the human condition.
