# Event Details - **Event Name**: Tragedy you Seem to See - **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 11 Nov, 2025 at 04:00 pm – Tue, 11 Nov, 2025 at 06:00 pm - **Event Description**: Tragedy you Seem to See: Ancient Literary Receptions of Fifth-Century TheaterAbout this EventWe as modern students of literature sometimes find ourselves silently reading play scripts or song lyrics, interpreting words on the page and therefore perhaps missing the spectacles which first animated those words. Ancient Greeks, I argue, were aware of this discrepancy and explored various ways of addressing it. In this talk I will survey a few examples of Greek authors engaging via text with tragedy performed in theaters hundreds of years before their lifetime, and I will explore their theories of imagined or embedded re-performances—theories which might provide ways for us even now to continue reanimating the literature we read.Guest Speaker: Alyson Melzer, Assistant Professor, Indiana University Bloomington in the Department of Classical StudiesBio: Alyson Melzer studies and teaches ancient Greek cultural history, with a focus on performance, aesthetics, and literary criticism. Her current book project explores the centrality of performance and the physical body to conceptualizations of literary language and style in antiquity. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/san-diego/tragedy-you-seem-to-see/100001778182414469 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, music, entertainment, theatre - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Ftragedy-you-seem-to-see-tickets-1778182414469 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: San Diego - **state**: CA - **country**: United States - **location**: Price Center - **lat**: 32.8830665 - **long**: -117.2338296 - **full address**: Price Center, 9500 Gilman Drive, San Diego, United States ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Institute of Arts & Humanities (https://allevents.in/org/institute-of-arts-and-humanities/20940418) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://dyn-image.allevents.in/generate-image?v=4&title=Tragedy+you+Seem+to+See&date=Tue%2C+11+Nov%2C+2025+at+04%3A00+pm&bg=5 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/banners/uploads/default_thumb_square.png ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Tue, 11 Nov, 2025 at 04:00 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** Price Center, 9500 Gilman Drive, San Diego, United States - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 0 up to 0 USD - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Institute of Arts & Humanities - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** art, literary-art, music, entertainment, theatre - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Tragedy you Seem to See ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Tragedy you Seem to See", "image": "https://dyn-image.allevents.in/generate-image?v=4&title=Tragedy+you+Seem+to+See&date=Tue%2C+11+Nov%2C+2025+at+04%3A00+pm&bg=5", "startDate": "2025-11-11", "endDate": "2025-11-11", "url": "https://allevents.in/san-diego/tragedy-you-seem-to-see/100001778182414469", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Price Center", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "9500 Gilman Drive", "postalCode": "92093", "addressLocality": "San Diego", "addressRegion": "CA", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "32.8830665", "longitude": "-117.2338296" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Tragedy you Seem to See: Ancient Literary Receptions of Fifth-Century Theater", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "2025-11-11", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/san-diego/tragedy-you-seem-to-see/100001778182414469" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "url": "https://allevents.in/san-diego/tragedy-you-seem-to-see/100001778182414469", "price": 0, "name": "Students" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "url": "https://allevents.in/san-diego/tragedy-you-seem-to-see/100001778182414469", "price": 0, "name": "Faculty/Staff" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "url": "https://allevents.in/san-diego/tragedy-you-seem-to-see/100001778182414469", "price": 0, "name": "Community Member" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Institute of Arts & Humanities", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/institute-of-arts-and-humanities/20940418", "description": "Founded in fall of 2016 under the Division of Arts & Humanities at UC San Diego, the Institute of Arts & Humanities (IAH) encourages interdisciplinary research, teaching and public dialogue in the Arts and Humanities.
