Théâtre de Dionysos Éleuthéreus

Le théâtre de Dionysos Éleuthéreus, situé sur le versant sud de l'acropole d'Athènes, fut construit au VIe siècle avant notre ère. Modifié et agrandi au fil des siècles, il est le plus ancien théâtre grec et c'est là que certaines des pièces grecques les plus célèbres de l'Antiquité furent jouées pour la première fois.

Sophocles: Victory

“You win the victory when you yield to friends. ”—Sophocles. Bronze portrait of Sophocles 5th century BCE Asia Minor (Photo credit: mharrsch).

Sophocles, from "Electra: A Tragedy," translated by Anne Carson

[ilions-end]

i love the part of sophocles' ajax where odysseus very carefully, very diplomatically debates agamemnon, trying to convince him that ajax deserves a proper burial

some of my favourite lines:

AGAMEMNON: Odysseus, are you for me or are you against me, and for this man? ODYSSEUS: I hated him when it was honourable to hate him.

!!

ODYSSEUS: He was my enemy, but he was also noble. AGAMEMNON: And you have respect for an enemy's corpse? ODYSSEUS: I am moved by admiration for his greatness, rather than by hatred for his smallness. AGAMEMNON: He was a man of many turns. ODYSSEUS: Many of our friends later become enemies. AGAMEMNON: But do you wish to praise these so-called friends? ODYSSEUS: I do not see friends and enemies as mutually exclusive.

and the finishing blow:

AGAMEMNON: I see now that every man works for himself. ODYSSEUS: Who else should a man work for?

I MADE A GAME! it's a short little walkaround adaptation of Sophocles' Antigone, set in a dying apartment tower, with a whole host of characters who you may or may not recognize. Music, art, and writing all by me - you can play it here, either in-browser or downloadable (although I've been informed that if you download it, the fonts may not function correctly).

It may receive updates in future - I made it in about a month for a class assignment, so I didn't have time to include everything I wanted to, and the music is all taken from various other projects of mine - so stay tuned for whenever that happens! For now, enjoy a 30-40 minute game with a single, inevitable conclusion. And do let me know what you think.

Architecture des Théâtres Grecs

Les Grecs de l'Antiquité construisirent des théâtres en plein air où le public pouvait assister à des représentations de comédies, de tragédies et de pièces satyriques grecques. Ils exportèrent ensuite l'idée dans leurs colonies de la mer Égée, si bien que les théâtres devinrent un élément typique du paysage urbain de toutes les villes grecques. Les Romains poursuivirent et développèrent le concept, ajoutèrent des coulisses monumentales et, d'une manière générale, rendirent la structure plus grandiose. Les grandes structures semi-circulaires, toujours dotées d'une excellente acoustique, sont visibles aujourd'hui sur de nombreux sites archéologiques, et plusieurs d'entre elles sont encore utilisées non seulement pour des concerts et des spectacles modernes, mais aussi pour des festivals de théâtre grec ancien.
