THEATRE, PERFORMANCE AND THEATRICALITY IN SOME MOSAIC PAVEMENTS FROM ANTIOCH
2003
Overview
This paper reconsiders four pavements from houses in or around Antioch on the Orontes which are generally recognised to have had some association with plays or the theatre. The ‘Red Pavement’ and the mosaic of ‘Iphigencia’ have been taken to illustrate the texts of particular plays by Euripides; scenes in the ‘House of Dionysus and Ariadne’ show satyrs in theatrical costume; and a triclinium mosaic from the House of Menander portrays the playwright himself. It views them in the light of some current interpretative approaches based on ‘theatricality’ and ‘performance’ and the decoration of houses. Through detailed analysis of each case it shows how their images provide further evidence of the cultural life of Antioch and for the interests and aspirations of elite patrons.
