The Bacchae: Notes Toward an Adaptation
Olga Taxidou, University of Edinburgh
Tuesday, November 2, 2010, 3:30PM
This seminar/workshop will look at the modes of adaptation proposed by the encounter between modernist and contemporary schools of performance with Greek tragedy, in their search not only for the “Greeks” but also for new languages of performance. From the Delphic modernist revivals to more recent postmodernist technologically-informed productions, the principle of adaptation has been crucial in creating specific languages of performance that in turn inform our concept of tragedy and its role within modernity. Some of these ideas will be examined through the lens of The Bacchae. Euripides’s last play—written in exile, and the last extant tragedy of the classical Athenian canon—has acquired in the long history of its reception apocalyptic and eschatological resonances; resonances that all challenge the limits of theater, the limits of the state and indeed the limits of the human. In a canon already saturated with matricide, parricide, infanticide and all aspects of dismemberment, The Bacchae also appears as an exceptional comment on the theatrical discourses about affect and spectacularization. This workshop will look at significant twentieth-century adaptations of The Bacchae (Dionysus 69, Terzopoloulos), while discussing general issues that relate to the process of adaptation (issues of faithfulness, relevance, context, theatrical form, reception etc.). It will invite the students to re-imagine the play for a contemporary audience, possibly moving beyond the pre-dominantly primitivist aesthetics that have dominated its modern reception.

NYU's Department of Hellenic Studies presents
Hellenism and Modernist Performance
Olga Taxidou, University of Edinburgh
Monday, November 1, 2010, 6:30PM
This talk will look at the ways in which the encounter with Greek Tragedy informs some of the most radical formal and thematic experiments within modernist performance and the historical avant-garde. Through a series of close readings of specific projects (Edward Gordon Craig, W.B Yeats, Ezra Pound, T. S. Eliot, H.D., Dadaism), the lecture will examine how this battle between the ancients and the moderns is re-staged as part of the sometimes-utopian quest for a “new” and autonomous language of performance. Although many of these projects were successful and now form part of the received history of modernist and avant-garde performance, significantly many also remained unrealizable and/or utopian or actually failed in performance. Within this context, the talk will underline the significance of such “failures” and the constitutive role of modernist Hellenism in creating aesthetics of utopia within modernist performance.

Did Ancient History Determine the Shape of the Modern World?
Ian Morris, Stanford University
Thursday, October 28, 2010, 6:30PM
19 Washington Square North
New York, NY 10011
Why does the west dominate the world--for now? In this talk Ian Morris will take a fresh look at what ancient history (roughly 1000 BCE-500 CE) meant for subsequent world history, comparing developments all across Eurasia from the Ice Age to the twenty-first century. Morris suggests that historians have often looked for explanations of the shape of world history in the wrong places, and proposes a new understanding of how ancient history shaped the world we live in.
