Elements in Greek and Roman Drama and Performance provides a forum for innovative and intellectually adventurous projects that extend and complement more introductory publications on the performance cultures of the ancient Mediterranean. The series embraces a wide range of topics and theoretical approaches, from formal analysis to reception studies, relating to all types of ancient “performance,” including various types of music, dance, and dramatic play beyond the theater. With a unique hybrid publication format, it is a home for experimental works and theoretical interventions that can inspire new directions in research and teaching. Each Element in this series avoids obscure jargon and overly specialized terminology to ensure that it is readily intelligible to readers of all levels and across different disciplines. As a hub for new scholarship on ancient Greek and Roman drama and performance, the series will be invaluable for both established scholars and curious undergraduate and graduate students.
