Αφιερωμένο, εξαιρετικά στους…..ξενομανείς, που
θέλουν να αφανίσουν την Ελληνική γλώσσα. Ξέρεις ελληνικά; Τότε
ξέρεις και αγγλικά! Το παρακάτω άρθρο είχε δημοσιευτεί πριν από καιρό σε
βρετανικό περιοδικό τέχνης (;) Αξίζει το κόπο να το
διαβάσεις…!
“The genesis of classical
drama was not symptomatic. Aneuphoria of charismatic and talented protagonists showed fantastic scenes of historic episodes. The prologue, the theme and the epilogue, comprised the trilogy of drama while synthesis, analysis and synopsis characterized the phraseology of the text.
The syntax and phraseology used by
scholars, academicians
and philosophers in
their rhetoric, had
many grammatical idioms and idiosyncrasies.
The protagonists periodically
used pseudonyms. Anonymity was a syndrome that characterized the theatrical atmosphere.
The panoramic fantasy,
the mystique, the melody, the aesthetics, the use of
the cosmetic epithets are characteristics of drama.
Even through the theaters were physically gigantic, there was
no need for microphones
because the architecture
and the acoustics
would echo isometrically
and crystal –
clear. Many epistomologists
of physics, aerodynamics, acoustics, electronics, electromagnetics can not
analyze – explain the ideal and isometric acoustics
of Hellenic theaters even today.
There were many categories of drama: classical drama, melodrama, satiric,
epic, comedy, etc. The syndrome of xenophobia or dyslexia was overcome by
the pathos of the
actors who practiced methodically
and emphatically. Acrobatics were also
euphoric. There was a plethora
of anecdotal
themes, with which the acrobats would electrify the ecstatic audience with scenes from mythical and historical episodes.
Some theatric episodes were characterized as scandalous and blasphemous. Pornography, bigamy, hemophilia, nymphomania, polyandry, polygamy and heterosexuality were
dramatized in a pedagogical
way so the mysticism
about them would not cause phobia
or anathema or
taken as anomaly but
through logic, dialogue and analysis skepticism and the pathetic or cryptic mystery behind them would
be dispelled.
It is historically and chronologically proven that theater emphasized pedagogy, idealism and harmony. Paradoxically it also energized patriotism a phenomenon that
symbolized ethnically
character and
phenomenal heroism.”
