Extractions: When Nietzsche made his famous definition of tragic pleasure he fixed his eyes, like all the other philosophers in like case, not on the Muse herself but on a single tragedian. His "reaffirmation of the will to live in the face of death, and the joy of its inexhaustibility when so reaffirmed" is not the tragedy of Sophocles nor the tragedy of Euripides, but it is the very essence of the tragedy of Aeschylus. The strange power tragedy has to present suffering and death in such away as to exalt and not depress is to be felt in Aeschylus' play as in those of no other tragic poet. He was the first tragedian; tragedy was his creation, and he set upon it the stamp of his own spirit. It was a soldier-spirit. Aeschylus was a Marathon-warrior, the title given to each of the little band who had beaten back the earlier tremendous Persian onslaught. As such, his epitaph would seem to show, he merited honor so lofty, no mention of his poetry could find place beside it. Aeschylus, the Athenian, Euphorion's son, is dead. This tomb in Gela's cornlands covers him. His glorious courage the hallowed field of Marathon could tell, and the longhaired Mede had knowledge of it.

Extractions: Orpheus AESCHYLUS Aeschylus (525-456 bce) is considered the "Father of Tragedy," the first of the three great tragedians in Greek drama. He fought in the Persian wars and expresses Athenian values during its golden age. Indeed, he wrote a play called The Persians , the only historical play to survive from ancient Greece. He is credited with the innovation of adding the second actor to the old form which involved only one actor and the chorus. We have 7 of his 80 or more plays, including the three plays of the Oresteia . He tends to explore grand moral issues and uses the chorus for its lyrical role and to comment on the action. Although rather a traditionalist, he does foreground human interaction and diminish attention to the gods. The story that he always wrote his plays while drunk is apocryphal. Agamemnon

Extractions: Table of Contents Go to pl. Abaci Abacuses The rectangular slab which constitutes the uppermost element of a column capital. It is nearly always carved from the same block as the rest of the capital and is wider than the epistyle blocks that it carries. In the Doric order the undecorated abacus provides the transition between the convex echinus below and the epistyle above. In the Ionic order it is worked comparatively thinner than in the Doric and is often enriched with mouldings, though it likewise serves as a transitional element between the lower portion of the capital (volute cushion) and the epistyle.

Extractions: 525 - 456 BC T he earliest of the three great dramatists, born 525 BC in Eleusis, near Athens, died 456 BC in Gela, Sicily. His mature years coincide with the early Greek victories against the Persian invasion, and he fought at Marathon (490 BC) and Salamis (480 BC). Theologian as well as artist, he was acclaimed for the magnificence of his imagery and the sublimity of his conceptions. Of the 70 tragedies attributed to him only seven survive to our day Persians
