The Tempest

Уильям Шекспир

The Tempest

This bewitching play, Shakespeare's final work, articulates a wealth of the playwright's mature reflections on life and contains some of his most familiar and oft-quoted lines. The story concerns Miranda, a lovely young maiden, and Prospero, her philosophical old magician father, who dwell on an enchanted island, alone except for their servants – Ariel, an invisible sprite, and Caliban, a monstrous witch's son.Into their idyllic but isolated lives comes a shipwrecked party that...

The Tragedies of Seneca

Seneca

The Tragedies of Seneca

Lucius Annaeus Seneca (ca. 4 BCE – 65 AD), known commonly as Seneca, was a Roman Stoic philosopher, statesman and dramatist of the Silver Age of Latin literature. He is most noted for developing a new type of drama, the Senecan tragedy, which differed greatly from Greek tragedy. While the Greek tragedies were expansive and periodic, Senecan tragedies are more succinct and balanced. In Senecan tragedy, characters do not undergo much change, there is little or no catharsis in the end, and violence...

Аристотель

Риторика. Книга 1

В «РИТОРИКЕ» Аристотель заложил фундамент классической риторической системы, которая на протяжении почти двух с половиной тысяч лет принимается в качестве образца для обучения искусству публичной речи. Аристотель понимает риторику как искусство убеждения, которое охватывает все сферы человеческой жизни: она одинаково необходима в делах, касающихся житейских нужд отдельного человека, и в делах государственной важности. В первой из трех книг труда «Риторика» Аристотель объясняет цель и область...

The Frogs

Aristophanes, the greatest of comic writers in Greek and in the opinion of many, in any language, is the only one of the Attic comedians any of whose works has survived in complete form He was born in Athens about the middle of the fifth century B C, and had his first comedy produced when he was so young that his name was withheld on account of his youth. He is credited with over forty plays, eleven of which survive, along with the names and fragments of some twenty-six others. His satire deal...

The Frogs

Along with Sophocles and Euripides, Aristophanes is considered one of the three great Greek playwrights. Only eleven of his nearly forty plays survive in their entirety to this day. «The Frogs» was produced the year after the death of Euripides, and laments the decay of Greek tragedy which Aristophanes attributed to that writer. It is an admirable example of the brilliance of his style, and of that mingling of wit and poetry with rollicking humor and keen satirical point which is his chief...

Lysistrata and Other Plays

Greek playwright Aristophanes spins wonderful stories combining politics, satire, and classic Greek gods in this collection of «Lysistrata and Other Plays.» «Lysistrata» focuses on the women of Greece whose husbands leave for the Peloponnesian War. The women do not care about the war as much as they care about missing their husbands; Lysistrata also insists that men rarely listen to women's reasoning and exclude their opinions on matters of the state. In retaliation, the women of Greece...

Othello (Annotated by Henry N. Hudson with an Introduction by Charles Harold Herford)

A tightly constructed drama which is regarded as one of the William Shakespeare’s finest; “Othello” is the story of its titular character, a Moorish general in the Venetian army. Othello secretly marries Desdemona, the daughter of Venetian senator Brabantio, who disapproves of the union. The marriage draws the contempt of Roderigo, a wealthy gentleman of low moral character who is in love with Desdemona and has asked her father for her hand in marriage.

The Heracleidae

Euripides

The Heracleidae

Though little is known for certain of his early life, Euripides was probably born around 460 b.c.e. to the farmer Mnesarchus and his wife Clito, and his studious nature quickly led him to a literary life in Athens. Eighteen of Euripides' ninety-two works remain today, making his the largest extant collection of work by an ancient playwright. His work sticks out from that of his contemporaries because of his colloquial vocabulary, meter and syntax, distinct from the grandiose language of his...

Дафнис и Хлоя

Исследователи древнегреческих рукописей не могут с уверенностью сказать, кто же автор данного произведения. В одной надписи с острова Лесбос — а этот остров и является местом действия повести — упоминается имя некоего жреца Лонга, вот почему литературная традиция сохраняет за автором повести это латинское имя, хотя повесть написана по-гречески. Столь же мало определенного можно сказать о времени написания «Дафниса и Хлои». Повесть «Дафнис и Хлоя» в истории литературы принято называть...

Политика

«Средний класс», «экономика», «семья как ячейка государства», «политика», «конституция», «гражданский долг» – мы произносим эти слова и выражения, даже не зная, что самим их существованием обязаны Аристотелю, гениальному мыслителю, который впервые ввел их в оборот в своем произведении «Политика», где и изобрел социальную и политическую философию, впервые в истории выделив изучение общественных отношений в самостоятельную науку. «Человек по природе своей существо политическое», – говорил...

In the decision to divide up his estate he requests that his daughters profess their feelings for him, vowing to give whomever loves him the most the largest share.

Euripides

The Trojan Women and Hippolytus

These two powerful classics of ancient drama are excellent examples of the author's gift for adapting traditional material for decidedly nontraditional effect. Through them Euripides critically examines social and moral aspects of contemporary life and even specific political events. He endows his figures with shrewdly observed individual character, implicitly deflating the emblematic simplicity of traditional narratives and making him seem the most modern of the great Greek dramatists.The...
