'Silk succeeds brilliantly, ranging far and wide across the entire spectrum of ancient and modern comedy ... Michael Silk has given us much to think about.'Erich Segal, TLS, 'unquestionably a work of major importance, one of the most distinctivecontributions ever made to the interpretation of Aristophanes...Silk's argumentsteem with thought-provoking ideas and observations, as well as with astimulating range of cultural cross-demands to be pondered by anyone who wantsto be made to rethink their view of Aristophanes in particular or of comedy ingeneral.'Stephen Halliwell, Greece and Rome, 'this is a valuable book. Silk has made us think about a number ofimportant points, the uniqueness of Aristophanes, the astonishing versatility ofhis comic genius, the very nature of comedy itself and its symbioticrelationship with tragedy.

No would-be translator or commentator onOld Comedy can proceed without a careful consultation of Silk's studies of comiclanguage.'BMCR 2001.09.35, 'The great strength of Silk's study lies in his close reading of passagesfrom Aristophanes. ...

Synopsis
In this book Professor Silk presents a radically new critical study of Aristophanes. Against the limited view of Aristophanes as Athenian theatrical satirist, Professor Silk identifies him as one of the world's great writers. Through an exploration of Aristophanes' comic poetry, informed by a wide range of theory from Kierkegaard to Adorno, a particular consideration of Aristophanes' own understanding of his medium, and challenging comparisons with modern literature, this book adds a new chapter to the long-standing debate about the nature and potentialities of comedy. Close analyses of Aristophanes' language and style, lyric poetry, presentation of character, organizational structures, and humorous modes, are conducted in this spirit. The enigma of 'serious comedy' and of Aristophanes' complex preoccupation with tragedy is at the centre of a new assessment of Aristophanic comedy as a whole. All Greek in the text is translated; the versions offered seek to convey the distinctive character of the original., This book is a major new critical study of the greatest comic writer of ancient Greece. It relates Aristophanes' work to modern literature and modern theory. It offers a new theory of comedy. It will be essential reading for students and specialists of ancient Greek drama and poetry, and also many students and specialists of modern literature., In this book Professor Silk presents a radically new critical study of Aristophanes. Through an exploration of Aristophanes' comic poetry, informed by a wide range of theory from Kierkegaard to Adorno, a particular consideration of Aristophanes' own understanding of his medium, and challenging comparisons with modern literature, this book adds a new chapter to the long-standing debate about the nature and potentialities of comedy.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
