The set design for the 88th annual production, For the Record, called for a massive 11-foot-diameter rotating globe suspended above the stage and wrapped in the masthead of the show’s fictional newspaper, the Chicago Offering. Northwestern’s set, scenery, and paint shops are located in the Virginia Wadsworth Wirtz Center for the Performing Arts, but Waa-Mu is performed in Cahn Auditorium. How to pull off such a planetary transplant? By deflating Earth. The globe began as a plain white (albeit custom-built) inflatable balloon, but after its initial multisection muslin wrap was created (to determine shrinkage), it was deflated, rigged, reinflated, motorized, map-designed, taped for a paint mask, primed, painted, and unpeeled to reveal computer-generated, to-scale continents.

  • The Ancient Near East and the Genre of Greek Historiography*
    [will be published in: R. Rollinger / E. van Dongen (ed.), Mesopotamia in the Ancient World: Impact, Continuities, Parallels, Melammu Symposia 7, Münster: Ugarit-Verlag 2014] The Ancient Near East and the genre of Greek historiography* Birgit Gufler – Irene Madreiter 1. Introductory notes Ancient historiography is generally understood as a product of the so called Western world. In this context two fields of research which have triggered an emotional discussion, play an important role. The first one deals with the contacts between the Ancient Near East1 and the ‘Greek World’. In this regard, the impact of the East on Greek culture versus the independent development of the single city states in the Aegean region is disputed controversially. The second one debates the genre of ancient historiography as a history of events and its narrative character as well as the reliability of the ancient authors. The analysis of elements from the Middle East and their meaning in Greek historiographical (con-)texts is a desideratum for research and promises a better understanding of the genre of historiography between fact and fiction. In our project “Altorientalische Elemente in der antiken Historiographie: Herodot und Ktesias”, we analyze the Histories of Herodotus (5th c. BC) and the Persika of Ctesias (4th c. BC). In this paper we will expose some basic ideas underlying the topic respectively the project. Our paper is divided into three main parts: we will start with some considerations about Greek historiography. In the second part we will briefly focus on the scholarly debate on the contacts between the Ancient Near East and the Greek world and on methodological aspects.
