The strong presence of embedded narratives in Aeschylus is often explained as a sign of the immaturity of the tragic genre in his time. Narratives at Play in Aeschylus analyses narrative features which were ostensibly constitutive of the genre for Aeschylus but later became more peripheral. The book reconstructs how these developments in tragedy affected the reception of Aeschylus, and tests new reading strategies that adapt readers' expectations to his texts.
