Chapter II we saw how the _dromenon_ gave birth to the _drama_, how, bit by bit, out of the chorus of dancers some dancers withdrew and became spectators sitting apart, and on the other hand others of the dancers drew apart on to the stage and presented to the spectators a spectacle, a thing to be looked _at_, not joined _in_. And we saw how in this spectacular mood, this being cut loose from immediate action, lay the very essence of the artist and the art-lover. Now in the drama of Thespis there was at first, we are told, but one actor; later aeschylus added a second. It is clear who this actor, this _protagonist_ or "first contender" was, the one actor with the double part, who was Death to be carried out and Summer to be carried in. He was the Bough-Bearer, the only possible actor in the one-part play of the renewal of life and the return of the year.

Chapter VII. For a quite different view of drama as arising wholly from the worship of the dead, see Professor W. RIDGEWAY, _The Origin of Tragedy_, 1910. An important discussion of the relation of _tragedy_ to the winter festival of the _Lenaia_ appears in A.B. COOK"S _Zeus_, vol. i, sec. 6 (xxi) [1914].
