{"product_id":"9780486143118","title":"World Drama, Volume 1: 26 Unabridged Plays","description":"This anthology was designed not only for the serious student of world literature and the drama, but for everyone interested in the stage. It is an unusual collection, containing many great plays which are not ordinarily to be found in anthologies, and several which are not currently to be found in print in English in any edition. Virtually every great dramatic tradition is represented — Greek, Roman, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Medieval, as well as such national traditions of Europe as Italian, Spanish, English, French, German, Danish, Russian, and Norwegian.\u003cbr\u003eThis volume includes: Aeschylus: \u003ci\u003ePrometheus Bound\u003c\/i\u003e; Sophocles: \u003ci\u003eAntigone\u003c\/i\u003e; Euripides: \u003ci\u003eAlcestis\u003c\/i\u003e; Aristophanes: \u003ci\u003eThe Clouds\u003c\/i\u003e; Plautus: \u003ci\u003eThe Captives\u003c\/i\u003e; Terence: \u003ci\u003ePhormio\u003c\/i\u003e; Seneca: \u003ci\u003eMedea\u003c\/i\u003e; Kálidása: \u003ci\u003eŚakoontalá\u003c\/i\u003e; The Oriental plays: \u003ci\u003eThe Chalk Circle, Abstractions, Nakamitsu\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eFair Ladies at the Game of Poem-Cards\u003c\/i\u003e; anonymous Medieval plays: \u003ci\u003eAdam, The Wise Virgins and the Foolish Virgins, The Second Shepherd's Play, The Farce of the Worthy Master Pierre Patelin, Everyman\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eSt. George\u003c\/i\u003e; Sachs: \u003ci\u003eThe Wandering Scholar from Paradise\u003c\/i\u003e; Marlowe: \u003ci\u003eThe Tragical History of Dr. Faustus\u003c\/i\u003e; Johnson: \u003ci\u003eEvery Man in His Humour\u003c\/i\u003e; Heywood: \u003ci\u003eA Woman Killed with Kindness\u003c\/i\u003e; Beaumont and Fletcher: \u003ci\u003eThe Maid's Tragedy\u003c\/i\u003e; Farquhar: \u003ci\u003eThe Beaux-Stratagem\u003c\/i\u003e; Goldsmith: \u003ci\u003eShe Stoops to Conquer\u003c\/i\u003e; Sheridan: \u003ci\u003eSchool for Scandal\u003c\/i\u003e. 26 plays in total.","brand":"Dover Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47168631767280,"sku":"9780486143118","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780486143118_p0.jpg?v=1765233070","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780486143118","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
