Topics
The scientific meeting “Ancient Greek Theatre in the Digital Age” aims to explore the challenges and limitations of digital tools in the study of ancient Greek theatre. We especially look for papers that present experiences, project proposals and research perspectives relating to:
a) digital critical editions of ancient Greek dramas, including fragmentary ones, and of ancient scholia to plays;
b) collaborative and open access editions of ancient Greek dramas and new paradigms of authorship and accessibility in the digital age;
c) digital archives and online lexica of ancient Greek theatre.

Organisation
The meeting is organised by the University of Bari, in collaboration with the Universities of Piemonte Orientale, Trento and Trieste.
The conference is part of the “Convegno Diffuso Sul Dramma Antico” promoted by the “Centro Studi sul Teatro Classico” of the University of Torino.
