The Greek Mythology Link contains texts, images, tables and maps. The mythical accounts are based exclusively on classical sources. ...The Greek Mythology Link is concerned with the creative, artistic, literary and inspiring aspects of the Greek Myths deriving from its tales. The network created by genealogy has been given particular attention, as well as some structural aspects, which partly derive from it. The information provided in this site is based on original sources." Didaskalia: Ancient Theater Today "Didaskalia is a web-site and journal dedicated to the study of ancient Greek and Roman theatre in performance, and to the legacy of ancient theatre. ...Didaskalia is an English-language publication about Greek and Roman drama, dance, and music as they are performed today. The name Didaskalia is taken from the inscriptions used to record the outcomes of drama and music festivals in Athens. The need for records of productions is greater today than it was in Athens, because there is more Greek and Roman drama performed in more parts of the world than there ever was in antiquity."
