Recenzii

“A joy to read. . . . Mulroy invites readers to reevaluate and discover a new appreciation for this often difficult play. Readers will appreciate his eye (and especially his ear) for detail, and his talent for recapturing much of the majesty and magic of Sophocles’ original.”—Bryn Mawr Classical Review

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Oedipus at Colonus follows Oedipus Rex and Antigone in the trilogy of Greek dramas about the king of Thebes and his unhappy family. David Mulroy’s translation combines scrupulous scholarship and textual accuracy with a fresh verse style, and his introduction and notes deepen the reader’s understanding of the play and the politics of Sophocles’ Athens.
