Zeitschrift für Klassische Philologie, Patristik und lateinische Tradition
This article deals with the prevailing weather conditions as well as their possible leverage on agon, play and staging during the great Dionysia in Athens in the fifth century B.C. With the help of archaeological and written sources as well as modern weather statistics the attempt is made to analyze the external climatic relations and to interpret their effect on the open-air theater of the Greeks in antiquity.
