<p>"The <i>agon</i> of Greek tragedy still gave evidence of this" (Adorno, Theodor W. Aesthetic Theory. Edited by Gretel Adorno and Rolf Tiedemann. Translated by Robert Hullot-Kentor. London: Continuum, 2004. p. 45.)</p>
<p>Agon (ἀγών) = the form of classical Greek drama that structured the debate between the lead characters mediated by the chorus</p>
