| Research Abstract |
There are many types of songs in Greek tragedy. They are classified according to (1) who sings and does not sing (2) whether it has antistrophic structure or not (3) whether the singer not only sings but utters. Stasimon is located at one end of the spectre and at the other, monody. Between these two so-called lyric dialogues or epirrhemata have their positions.
The songs amount to 265 and are provisionally clasified. The classification is not so easy as has been supposed, however. There is no agreement even on the names of the songs in various styles. The problems are (1) how a song is differentiated from a series of songs (2) how lyric metre is differentiated from spoken metre, especially in the case of the iambic trimeter and others. In 'Typology of the Songs in Greek Tragedy: a Preliminary Survey' (Philologica, 9 (2014), 1-13) these are discussed in detail. A monograph 'Lyric Dialogues and Monodies in Greek Tragedies' is now in preparation.
