    Explore the intricate tapestry of ancient art and ritual in this enlightening volume, where Jane Ellen Harrison unveils the profound connection between these two seemingly disparate domains. The book delves deep into the historical roots of art and ritual, illustrating their intertwined evolution through the lens of ancient Greek drama, particularly the festivals of Dionysus. It challenges modern perceptions of art and ritual as separate entities, arguing for their shared origin and mutual influence.In ancient Athens, attending the theater was not merely a cultural activity but a sacred ritual. The book vividly describes how Greek theater, deeply embedded in religious practice, served as both an act of worship and a community event. It contrasts this with modern practices, highlighting how far these concepts have diverged over time.Through detailed exploration of Athenian festivals, the book reveals how art and ritual coalesced, forming a critical component of spiritual and civic life. It offers a fresh perspective on the nature of art, its role in society, and its capacity to influence spiritual life.This volume is a fascinating journey into the heart of ancient civilization, providing insightful commentary on the unbreakable bond between art and ritual, and their enduring impact on our understanding of culture and spirituality.

    First published by Virginia and Leonard Woolf in 1925, Jane Ellen Harrison's Reminiscences are the irreverent memoirs of a student who declared Victorian education "ingeniously useless," who blazed a trail for female scholars, and who changed the way we see the ancient world. Growing up in the Yorkshire countryside, Harrison showed an early aptitude for languages: by the age of seventeen, with the help of a governess, she had learned Greek, Latin, German, and some Hebrew. ("Unfortunately, having no guide, we began with the Psalms, which are hard nuts to crack.") She went on to become the most influential Classicist of her generation. Drawing on the insights of Nietzsche, Bergson, and Freud, and on archaeological research, she helped to revolutionize the study of Greek myth. "The great Mother," she wrote, "is prior to male divinities." Unconventional in her private life ("By what miracle I escaped marriage I do not know, for all my life I fell in love"), she spent her later years with the poet and novelist Hope Mirrlees, thirty-seven years her junior. Harrison's zest for life is everywhere in these pages. Sprightly, amused, and amusing, her Reminiscences form an unforgettable sketch of a woman ahead of her time. -- Provided by publisher.
