pantomime mitologiche

Italian to English Art/Literary Archaeology necropoli del vaticano
Torniamo però al momento iniziale, quello in cui il Circo ancora svolgeva appieno la sua funzione. In età neroniana questo edificio e i giardini circostanti furono teatro della persecuzione con cui l’imperatore intese gettare sulle spalle dei cristiani la colpa dell’incendio che aveva devastato gran parte della città nel 64 d.C. Alcuni furono crocifissi, altri arsi come torce umane, altri ancora sbranati dalle belve inscenando pantomime mitologiche

Myth as drama

Brander Matthews, an American playwright and teacher of literature, who in 1899 at Columbia University was the first at an English-speaking university to be appointed Professor of Dramatic Literature, states in The Development of the Drama, 1903, that the principles and structure of the drama form “an unbroken chain from the crudest mythological pantomime of primitive man down to the severest problem-play of the stern Scandinavian, whose example has been so stimulating to the modern stage.” (The Scandinavian mentioned would be Henrik Ibsen.)

As well explained, as well, in 'Roman Days: reenacting in the Colisseum' (see 2°link)
