Life in Ancient Greece - Context for Drama Studies


As my research continues, I have stumbled upon a wealth of resources, including an entire online textbook dedicated to Greek Drama. I also found a handy vocabulary guide that covers some of the key terms in ancient Athenian theater.

Finally, my favorite new video discovery appears to be created by a talented (amateur?) historian who explores the lives of women in both Athens and Sparta. The contrasts are fascinating, especially when one considers that the two cities states were a mere 230 miles from each other. (Perhaps I say "mere" because I am so used to driving in my Prius. If you made me walk or ride on horseback, I wouldn't be so cavalier.)
