Published by the Groupe Interdisciplinaire du Théâtre Antique and Université Paul-Valéry (Montpellier), the Cahiers du GITA (CGita) were founded by Paulette Ghiron-Bistagne and subsequently edited by Alain Moreau, Pierre Sauzeau, and Marie-Pierre Noël. The opening issue, entitled Melpomène 84: mélanges interdisciplinaires sur la tragédie grecque, came out in 1985. Several supplements and 18 numbers on a single theme came out from 1985 until 2011.

Now published by the Presses universitaires de Franche-Comté and edited jointly by Michel Fartzoff and Marie-Pierre Noël, within the framework of a cooperation between research centers ISTA (Institut des Sciences et Techniques de l’Antiquité – EA 4011) in Besançon and CRISES (Centre de Recherches Interdisciplinaires en Sciences Humaines et Sociales – EA 4424) in Montpellier, CTA (a.k.a. CGita) is currently the only French journal devoted to ancient classical theater and its reception.

Each issue is devoted to a central theme (study of a play or theatrical), and rooted primarily in Greek and Roman theater, though regularly incorporating a comparative literature approach, both synchronically and diachronically: thus, ancient classical theater is envisaged within both its original performance context and its interpretive, performance, and constant adaptation history, from antiquity to the present day. The journal is therefore intended for a wide readership: all specialists of Greek and Roman antiquity and its reception, and also everyone interested in Western theatrical history, forms, and practice.
