Abstract
This volume brings together nine papers originally presented at the seminar Aeschylean Tragedy, held at the University of Verona in June 2025 within the framework of the PRIN 2022 project Aeschylean Tragedy. Text, Hypotexts, Performance (P.I.: Enrico Medda, University of Pisa). Authored by early-career scholars, the essays examine the interplay between text, interpretation, and performance in Aeschylus’ works. Employing a range of methodological approaches, they address key issues in philology, literary criticism, reception studies, and performance studies.
