Ancient Dialogues
Greek tragedy was born in the city state of Athens, during the last quarter of the 6th century BC as improvisation at festivals of Dionysus and extension of ritual ceremonies. Αlong with the basic elements of philosophy and science, theater was added to the new political system and became an integral part of the Greek culture; for 80 years it ran in parallel with the rise and fall of the Athenian democracy, leaving its indelible mark to the civilized world.Antigone, Oedipus Rex, Prometheus Bound, the Persians, Ajax, Lysistrate and other works inspired many other later artists and are referenced in numerous ways today, a testament to their enduring power.
