Riassunto

Excerpt from Athens, Its Rise and Fall, Vol. 2: With Views of the Literature, Philosophy, and Social Life of the Athenian People

The choruses themselves were improved in their professional art by Thespis. He invented dances, which for centuries retained their popularity on the stage, and is said to have given histrionic disguise to his reciter at first, by the application of pigments to the face; and afterward, by the construction of a rude linen mask.
