Monumental theatres of the Peloponnese in the Hellenistic and Roman periods : a comparative study

This research forms a regional study of the theatres of the Peloponnese in the Hellenistic and Roman Periods. It includes a Catalogue of all 29 monuments discussed with appended bibliography and separate chapters on each section of the theatre analyzed. More specifically, after an overall presentation of the methods of design used in the theatres of the Peloponnese, the elements of the theatre are examined in each section. The study concludes with the Reconstruction of the Deus ex Machina in the theatre of Phlious. The aim of the research is to present a detailed image of the theatres in the periods discussed, with the purpose of resolving problems related to the architecture of the monuments, with the aim of assessing the development of the theatre building in this area from the fourth century BC up to the end of the fourth century AD.
