'Medea, a performance history' is a multimedia/interactive ebook on the production history of Euripides’ 'Medea' – an ancient Greek tragedy about a mother who, betrayed by her husband, exacts revenge by killing her children. The object-rich ebook draws on a unique collection of archival material and research at the Archive of Performances of Greek and Roman Drama (APGRD) and uses images, film, unique interviews and digital objects to tell the story of a play that has inspired countless interpretations, onstage and onscreen, in dance, drama and opera across the globe from antiquity to the present. The ebook is free to download and is available either as an iBook for Apple devices (via iTunes: see top link in 'Relevant Links' column on your right) or as an EPUB (choose Episode 1 below - the ebook can be downloaded to your device from the following page by selecting 'Document' under 'Download Media' in the right-hand column).
Medea, a performance history (ebook) (eBook)
A free to download, interactive/multimedia ebook by the APGRD, on the production history of Euripides' tragedy Medea The EPUB, which due to the limitations of the software has fewer interactive features than the iBook, should be compatible with most standard ebook-readers. The EPUB file can be downloaded by selecting 'Document' under 'Download Media' (in the right-hand column). The two most popular ebook readers, which can both be downloaded for free, are Readium (an app which operates inside Google Chrome) and Adobe Digital Editions 4.5 (older versions of ADE will need to be upgraded to view APGRD ebooks). Our thanks to Chris Jennings for converting the APGRD iBook into an EPUB. The iBook version is available on iTunes at: https://itunes.apple.com/us/book/id1085751260
