PEDRON, Denise. Greek Tragedies Taught by the Department of Theater - Prometheus Bound. UH [online]. 2016, n.282, pp.75-80. ISSN 0253-9276.

This paper reflects on how Greek tragedies are taught at present. The performing arts course taught by the Department of Theater at the Federal University of Minas Gerais is examined. The curse allows drama students to develop their skills on a more practical than theoretical basis because they not only study tragedies but also analyze how they can stage them. Students themselves staged the Ancient Greek tragedy Prometheus Bound by Aeschylus in the year 2014, after studying it. This paper doesn't examine the tragedy itself but focuses on what aspects thereof students considered as relevant to its production, i.e. how they could stage this myth. This way of systematically teaching Greek tragedies has proved itself to be very useful because it allows drama students to get familiar with tragedies at the same time that they are encouraged to find their own ways to produce them.
