Recenzii
"Here Euripides stands, in vigorous English versions that fully do him justice. The most modern of the Greek tragedians has found a compelling modern form."-Robert Fagles "A boon for classicists and general readers alike. For the reader who comes to tragedy for the first time, these translations are eminently 'accessible.' ... For the classicist, these versions constitute an ambitious reinterpretation of traditional masterpieces."-Boston Book Review "Don't look for the wild and woolly-these were put together by wordsmiths... But they are a far cry from some of the stodgier translations."-Washington Post "The 12-volume set will offer readers new verse translations of the complete surviving tragedies of Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides, as well as the surviving comedies of Aristophanes and Menander. The complete line of Greek theater classics has not been offered to readers since 1938."-Publishers Weekly
Descriere
What man would murder his daughter to launch a fleet, or give his wife to Death in his own stead? These tragedies are filled with dramatic conflicts realistically portrayed. The Penn Greek Drama Series presents original literary translations of classical Greek drama. The aim of the series is to make both the works and their interpretations accessible to the reading public.
