Hosszú leírás:
Why did the Greeks of the archaic and early Classical period join in choruses that sang and danced on public and private occasions? This book offers a wide-ranging exploration of representations of chorality in the poetry, art and material remains of early Greece in order to demonstrate the centrality of the activity in the social, religious and technological practices of individuals and communities. Moving from a consideration of choral archetypes, among them cauldrons, columns, Gorgons, ships and halcyons, the discussion then turns to an investigation of how participation in choral song and dance shaped communal experience and interacted with a variety of disparate&&&160;spheres that include weaving, cataloguing, temple architecture and inscribing. The study ends with a treatment of the role of choral activity in generating epiphanies and allowing viewers and participants access to realms that typically lie beyond their perception.
'... attractive and wide-ranging book ... Steiner approaches ancient "chorality" first through a systematic examination on common verbal and visual metaphors (stars, dolphins, cranes, satyrs), and then by exploring ways in which dance was implicated in social aspects of Greek life and how viewers responded to it.' Armand D'Angour, Choral Constructions in Greek Literature
