- This 261-page work is the first full study of tragedy's dissemination, c.500-300 BC. Previous scholarship has focussed overwhelmingly on fifth-century democratic Athens. This volume draws on new research into the corpus of extant tragedies and fragments, conducted over eight years, to propose a new history of tragedy’s development by showing that from early on tragedy was part of a shared (Panhellenic) Greek culture. It uses this to assess the movement of performers and audience members along this circuit, explore the link between professionalism and mobility, and suggest new insights into the question of mobility and work in general.
