Description
This anthology collects some of the most important plays by Ancient Greek tragedians, in updated translations with new introductions.
Greek Tragedies, Volume III presents some of the finest and most fundamental works of Western dramatic literature. It draws together plays of Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides from Chicago's acclaimed nine-volume series, Complete Greek Tragedies. This third edition updates the translations to bring them even closer to the ancient Greek while retaining the vibrancy for which they are famous. New introductions for each play provide essential information about the production histories and the stories themselves.
This volume contains Aeschylus's "The Eumenides," translated by Richmond Lattimore; Sophocles's "Philoctetes," translated by David Grene; Sophocles's "Oedipus at Colonus," translated by Robert Fitzgerald; Euripides's "The Bacchae," translated by William Arrowsmith; and Euripides's "Alecestis," translated by Richmond Lattimore.
